Join us for our district summer meeting at Brewery Ardennes! With a presentation from our host, Derek Edinger on package conditioning! In the era of the omnipresent 16 ounce can, bottle-conditioned beer can be a differentiator that drives customer demand; especially for unique and limited-edition releases. This talk will briefly discuss the commercial benefits of bottle-conditioned beer, but largely focuses on the technical details and quality control for the bottle conditioning process. This is important because very small changes in gravity equate to large changes in carbonation. A number of low cost and easy-to-implement quality control steps will be discussed so you can avoid the woes of flat beer and bottle bombs.
