Creative Beer Brewing with zenon

Currently creativity in beer production is again becoming a popular trend. Alongside well-known favorite brands, it is also delightful to try something new and special. The dynamic trend of craft beer has emerged, blending local tradition, special ingredients, unexpected flavors, secret recipes and slow brewing – which has more to do with brew masters’ innovation than with industrial mass production.

 

The capacity of brewing equipment, however, is not decisive in achieving a good or bad result. The one thing that really does make a difference is how automation technology supports the brew master to put his ideas into practice and to refine his creations. Is automation flexible or limiting? Do changes have a reasonable or dramatic budget impact? Does the technology support a quick or slow time to market?
