A process for preparing a beverage or beverage component can have the following steps. Providing brewer's spent grain occurs. Then, performing a saccharification by enzymatic treatment of the brewer's spent grain and a fermentation of the saccharified brewer's spent grain with lactic acid bacteria and/or acetic acid bacteria and/or probiotics obtains a fermented broth. Filtering the fermented broth and collecting the permeate obtains the beverage or beverage component. Homogenizing the fermented broth is performed to obtain the beverage or beverage component.

The present invention relates to a beer-taste beverage having a malt ratio in materials of 66.6% by mass or less, a protein content greater than 0.31 g/100 ml, and sugars content of 2.5 g/100 ml or less.

The present invention relates to the unexpected discovery of a new strain of yeast, dubbed GY7B, which is related to, but genetically and phenotypically distinct from, Lachancea thermotolerans. The invention provides methods of brewing sour beer using GY7B, wherein the methods do not require use of lactic acid or lactic acid producing bacteria.

The present invention is directed to a beer having reduced quantities of AcHFA. It has been found that beer with reduced AcHFA quantities has improved foam stability. The invention provides beer with reduced AcHFA quantities, as well as methods for removing AcHFA from beer during or after fermentation, or for removing a precursor for AcHFA from wort.

A first container for delivery of a fluid by way of a filtering device to a fermenting vessel, the fermenting vessel being connected to a fluid storage container, the first container, the fermenting vessel and the storage container being arranged in a substantially vertical stack.

A process for preparing a cereal-based beverage, the method comprising: —providing malt or unmalted cereal grains; ˜mashing said malt or unmalted cereal grains to solubalize fermentable sugars therein the mashing comprising: —a first step wherein the malt or unmalted cereal grains are exposed to protease activity and optionally glucanase activity, the first step being carried out in a temperature interval A; —a subsequent second step wherein the malt or unmalted cereal grains are exposed to beta-amylase and alfa-amylase activity carried out in a temperature interval inhibiting the protease activity of the first step; —filtering the mashed malt or unmalted cereal grains to obtain a wort; —fermenting said wort to obtain the malt-based beverage; wherein the process comprises the addition of malt rootlets to the wort, characterised in that said malt rootlets are added to the malt or unmalted cereal grains during the second step of the mashing process at which protease activity is inhibited.

The invention provides a process of producing a non-alcoholic beer comprising the steps of: fermenting the wort with live yeast to produce a fermented wort; subjecting the fermented wort to one or more further process steps to produce a non-alcoholic beer; and introducing the non-alcoholic beer in a sealed container; wherein either the fermentation produces a non-alcoholic fermented wort or wherein the fermentation produces an alcoholic fermented wort and alcohol is subsequently removed to produce a non-alcoholic fermented wort or a non-alcoholic beer; and wherein the heated wort, the non-alcoholic fermented wort and/or the non-alcoholic beer is contacted with a hydrophobic silicate-based molecular sieve.

Flavour substances contributing to undesirable flavour notes in non-alcoholic beer can be removed effectively during production by contacting wort before or after fermentation with a hydrophobic silicate-based molecular sieve, provided the wort contains virtually no alcohol.

The present invention is directed to methods for making fermented beverages and other fermentation products including lactic acid and ethanol for fuel and the products produced therefrom.

Embodiments are directed to visualizing data using a graphical user interface (GUI) that may include a graph panel and a visualization panel arranged to receive inputs or interactions. A data model may be provided and displayed in the visualization panel. Input information that specifies portions of the data model may be provided to the visualization panel. Transform models may be determined based on the specified portions of the data model such that the determined transform models include a model interface that accepts the input information. The transform models may be employed to generate graph objects based on the data model, the input information such that the graph objects may be included in a graph model. Queries based on the graph model may be executed to provide results from the data model such that the results may be displayed in a visualization.

A dry-milling ethanol process includes the steps of: dry-milling corn kernels to form a corn flour; combining the corn flour with water to form a mash; fermenting the mash thereby producing beer and carbon dioxide; adding an alkanesulfonic acid to the beer in an amount sufficient to adjust the pH to a range of from about 3 to about 5; distilling the beer to produce ethanol and whole stillage; and processing the whole stillage to produce wet distiller's grains with solubles and/or dried distiller's grains with solubles.
