Member–funded brewing projects for 2014

For 2014 our brewing members were invited to vote on the projects they wished to see funded from their membership fees, and selected these three:

• Improved control of foam and haze in a range of drinks.
• Establishing methods and guidelines on PUs, preservatives and other options to achieve microbiological stabilisation in low and zero alcohol beers.
• Benchmarking energy and water use at individual steps of the brewing processes.

The projects will be steered by the Brewing and Fermented Alcoholic Beverages MIG to ensure that they address the needs of members in a practical and relevant way. The projects will also be reported through our full range of communication channels – including news items, podcasts, videos, webinars, summary sheets and R&D reports – to ensure that the membership as a whole will have the opportunity to access the output as well as influence the direction of the projects.
