Description
As the craft brewing industry evolves, brewers are trying to push the boundaries of the flavor spectrum of their products. Thus, the incorporation of hops and other aromatic ingredients during fermentation has become a crucial step in building these extravagant beer profiles. This is even truer with the ever increasing popularity of the NEIPA style which requires many cold hops. Incorporating these ingredients can be difficult for brewers, given the need for an oxygen-free (O2) environment in the fermenter. It is also important to ensure the safety and efficiency of the brewer during the process.
The NXT Process Hop Incorporator is a system designed according to the needs of brewers. It allows the incorporation of a variety of ingredients such as hops, coffee, fruits and spices during fermentation without risk of O2 contamination. The system is connected directly to the bottom valves of the fermenter to avoid any danger of reaching the top of the fermenter. Additionally, the Hop Incorporator can recirculate the wort during incorporation to ensure an efficient and consistent beer profile between batches.
