Flocculation of yeast cells occurs during the fermentation of beer. Partway through the fermentation the cells become flocculent and start to form flocs. If the environmental conditions, such as medium composition and fluid velocities in the tank, are optimal, the flocs will grow in size large enoug

Quantification of yeast flocculation under defined conditions will help to understand the physical mechanisms of the flocculation process used in beer fermentation. Flocculation was quantified by measuring the size of yeast flocs and the number of single cells. For this purpose, a method to measure
The separation of yeast at the tnd of a beer fermentation depends on the ability of the yeast to become flocculent, form floes and sediment to the bottom of the fermenter. To monitor these processes an on-line method has been developed. With the instrument, a Photometric Dispersion Analyser, it is p
