Modular dosing system for brewing and beverage industry
Precise control of ingredient blending and dosing is essential in the brewing and beverage industry to ensure consistent product quality and taste. Traditional methods might not offer the exactness and automation needed for high-volume production.
Achieve precise in-line dosing and blending
The Alfa Laval Alfadose is designed for controlled dosing of large or small volume components directly into the main product stream. It is particularly useful in the brewing and beverage industry for adjusting beer taste and quality by adding ingredients such as malt extract, hops extract, and flavors. The system’s automatic control and ‘plug-and-play’ concept ensures minimal site work, while its sanitary and compact design requires low maintenance. High precision volume or mass flow meters are used to control the dosing of ingredients, which are pre-selected on the control panel in the form of a recipe. Plant automation regulates the speed of the dosing pumps and/or regulating valves to maintain preset dosing ratios accurately. A control panel with a PLC monitors all plant operations and displays relevant process data.
