TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the fermentation time required to ferment worts of varied composition to a given extent is dependent upon the extent of exponential growth in the early stages of fermentation; in the worts studied this is determined by the concentration of assimilable nitrogen.
Abstract: The time required to ferment worts of varied composition to a given extent is dependent upon the extent of exponential growth in the early stages of fermentation; in the worts studied this is determined by the concentration of assimilable nitrogen. When the concentration of all the non-carbohydrate nutrients in malt wort is halved by dilution with carbohydrate, the addition of appropriate quantities of serine or arginine restores the rate of fermentation to that of the malt wort. Minor nutrients, other than amino acids specifically required by the yeasts used, are thus present in at least two-fold excess in the malt wort. The yeast produced during exponential growth in malt wort (sp.gr. 1·040) is able to ferment rapidly much greater quantities of fermentable carbohydrate than are present in that wort.
The majority of the strains of yeast examined ferment equally well when either glucose or maltose is added to malt wort and do so whether the sugar is added prior to fermentation or towards the end; however, one strain fails to ferment satisfactorily if a substantial quantity of glucose is added to wort prior to fermentation, because of the subsequent failure of the yeast to adapt to ferment maltose. It is suggested that most brewing strains do not require to adapt to maltose utilization during the fermentation of wort.
TL;DR: In this article, the isoelectric species of beer have been isolated in quantities sufficient for certain of their physical and chemical properties to be determined, and it is concluded that substances with typical protein-like properties account for only about one-third (by weight) of the total complex-nitrogen fraction of beer.
Abstract: Complex nitrogenous materials extracted from barley, malt, wort and beer have been separated by isoelectrophoresis in thin layers of Sephadex gel. Comparison and interpretation of the different isoelectric profiles has been attempted. A preparative isoelectrophoretic procedure has been developed. The isoelectric species of beer have been isolated in quantities sufficient for certain of their physical and chemical properties to be determined. It is concluded that substances with typical protein-like properties account for only about one-third (by weight) of the total complex-nitrogen fraction of beer. An arbitrary but useful classification of the complex-nitrogen fraction of beer is suggested.
TL;DR: Hop extract and hop pellets are applied to wort in beer brewing from an airtight storage silo for pellets, filled with an inert gas, through an air-tight vibrating trough as discussed by the authors.
Abstract: Hop extract and hop pellets are applied to wort in beer brewing from an airtight storage silo for pellets, filled with an inert gas, through an airtight vibrating trough. The pellets are fed in metered amounts by a gravity-charged balance with a cut-off flap to a mixing tank which contains an agitator and a hop extract can, and has inlets for hot water or hot wort. A pump conveys the hop suspension to the brewing vat.
TL;DR: The elution profile enables routine assessment to be made of the protein-phenolic fraction, of nucleic acid derivatives and of tryptophan, together with a measure of the generally low level of monomeric phenolics.
Abstract: Total ultraviolet-absorbing constituents of wort and beer are partially resolved by direct gel column analysis, with continuous monitoring of effluent at 280 nm. The elution profile enables routine assessment to be made of the protein-phenolic fraction, of nucleic acid derivatives and of tryptophan, together with a measure of the generally low level of monomeric phenolics. The major portion of total ultraviolet absorbance in these brewing materials is apparently due to nucleic acid derivatives, which originate from the mashing process.
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors determined dissolved oxygen, headspace oxygen, and carbon dioxide in packaged beer, based on measurements from the American Society of Brewing Chemists (ASBE).
