Beta-Glucan: The Challenge Facing the Beer Industry.
Beta-Glucan: The Challenge Facing the Beer Industry.
The beer industry is faced with a growing challenge that affects the quality and consistency of their final product: beta-glucan. Beta-glucans are naturally occurring polysaccharides that are found in the cell walls of yeast, barley, and other grains. In beer production, high levels of beta-glucans can lead to problems with the brewing process and cause cloudiness, instability, and a reduction in the overall quality of the beer.

Testing for Beta-Glucan in Beer
Testing for Beta-Glucan in Beer
To determine the presence of beta-glucan in beer, a range of tests can be used.
These tests typically measure the molecular weight, viscosity, and other physical characteristics of the beer to determine the levels of beta-glucans. One commonly used test is the Rheology Test, which measures the viscosity of the beer and can help identify the presence of high levels of beta-glucans.
Another test that is commonly used is the Flow Microscopy Test, which helps to identify the size and distribution of beta-glucan particles in the beer.
