Title: The Sterile Filtration of Beer - Keeping up with Consumer Trends

Today, the two primary methods of microbial stabilisation are flash pasteurisation and sterile filtration. However, the brewing industry is shifting away from flash pasteurisation as they discover the significant advantages to both operating costs and overall product quality of sterile filtration over flash pasteurisation. Reducing costs and increasing flavour to meet consumption trends The recent partnership between Parker and Agidens automation – experts of both automated sterile filtration modules and flash pasteurisation systems, have enabled Parker Bioscience to establish a comparison of the operating costs of flash pasteurisation vs sterile filtration using Parker's BEVPOR BR range of microfilter cartridges. The research measured the annual electricity consumption, the annual water consumption and the annual consumable spend of both sterile filtration and flash pasteurisation processes. The results concluded that these combined factors proved sterile filtration to be the most cost-effective method of microbial stabilisation, saving brewers up to 44% of their annual operating costs when compared to flash pasteurisation.
