Monitoring Fan In Brewery Applications

To control flavor and quality, brewers rely on a number of tests to prove and maintain consistency. Brewers associations and government agencies have set guidelines for testing specific parameters critical to determining and controlling beer quality.

In this case study, we are focussing on a key brewing parameter: free amino nitrogen (FAN). Testing for FAN is a part of standard brewing quality control analyses. This enables the protein content to be estimated and serves as an indicator of beer quality.
