Evidence of beers created over 5,000 years ago Beer has been an integral part of society Sustenance: Low alcohol (1%), high gravity beers Energy storage Liquid meal – Egyptians, Colonists Safe water supply Sterilization inherent of making beer Hops and Boiling I.P.A’s Religion and Health Blood of Christ – Church Brewed Monastic Beers Anesthetic - Surgery Today – 39 Billion gallons of beer brewed annually 2
3
Barley is grown, harvested, and dried (Malting) Malt is milled and steeped in water to create sweet wort (Mashing) Sweet Wort is boiled and hops are added to create bitter wort (Boiling) Wort is chilled to fermentation temperature and yeast added Fermentation takes 2-6 weeks depending on beer style yeast Wort has now become beer. It is filtered, carbonated, and packaged Shipped and Consumed 3

Milling: Husk crushed to increase surface area to improve saccharification 6

7 Mashing: Grain to Water ratio (Grist Ratio) and time of mash determines extract efficiency
8
Starches given, sugars needed – Enzymes are found naturally in grain Generate needed fermentable sugars from starches (saccharification) Alpha-Amylase Beta Amylase 8

EnzymeOptimum Temperature Range Working pH Range Function Phytase86-126°F5.0-5.5Lowers the mash pH. No longer used. Debranching (var.)95-113°F5.0-5.8Solubilization of starches. Beta Glucanase95-113°F4.5-5.5Best gum breaking rest. Peptidase113-131°F4.6-5.3Produces Free Amino Nitrogen (FAN). Protease113-131°F4.6-5.3Breaks up large proteins that form haze. Beta Amylase131-150°F5.0-5.5Produces maltose. Alpha Amylase154-162°F5.3-5.7Produces a variety of sugars, including maltose. Major Enzyme Groups and Functions 9

Wort is boiled for an hour Energy Intensive Hops are added: Bittering Flavoring Aromatic 10

Wort is cooled to fermentation temperature Heat Exchangers Oxygen solubilized into wort Allows yeast to perform aerobic respiration to grow and multiply 11

Wort pumped to fermentation tank Yeast is added Wort maintained chilled Fermentation exothermic more heat exchangers 2-6 week wait Gravity Checked 12
