Yeast propagation system for the craft brewer
As yeast is one of the most important constituents of beer production, influencing its taste, flavor, bouquet and color, GEA has developed a yeast propagator especially for craft brewers and small to medium sized breweries.
The GEA Craft Yeast Propagator is an innovative solution for yeast propagation specifically tailored for the craft brewing industry. It provides precise control over the propagation process while allowing room for experimentation. By supplying highly vital yeast, it enables consistent quality in the production of unique beer varieties. Designed as a frame-mounted system, it caters to craft breweries and small to medium-sized breweries with capacities ranging from 3 to 25 hectoliters.
