Mixing and carbonating system type DIMIX-B for original wort (OG) optimization
The GEA High-Gravity-Brewing system (HGB) type DIMIX-B has been designed for the exact control of the original wort (alcohol content) and CO2 content.
The system DIMIX-B consists of the following essential components
- Flow meter (beer, deaerated water)
- Monitoring valves (CO2 deaerated water)
- Analyzing unit (CO2 In-line and original wort meter, optionally with alcohol metering)
- Saturator and saturating pipe section
- Operating unit
The original wort- and CO2-contents which are required for the product are stored in the recipes in the operating unit. The original wort and CO2meter detect the current measured values and the controller causes a permanent setpoint-to-actual value comparison. The resulting flow rates are adjusted by means of high-precision monitoring valves.
By means of the saturator the CO2 is finely spread in the product so that a complete bonding takes places in the following saturating pipe section.
Features
- High original wort accuracy (up to 0,05% original gravity)
- Single-stage carbonation up to the saturation value
- Metering of the CO2-content in the product
- Direct monitoring of the CO2-content CO2-dissolving by means of special jet nozzle
- Easy operation
- Compact, shop-tested aggregate
- Can be combined with the water deaeration systems type GEA VARIDOX-C (cold deaeration) and GEA VARIDOX-H (hot deaeration).

The breakthrough that changed spray drying
In 1976, NIRO engineers responded to a competitive challenge by rethinking what spray drying could do. Their idea became the multi-stage dryer MSD. Fifty years later, the same fundamental principle helps turn liquids into the powders used in essential nutrition products and important medicines around the world. Refined through decades of engineering expertise, customer insight and continuous development, MSD is a story of innovation with lasting impact.
Beyond the machine: unlocking better plant performance
An efficient machine does not automatically make an efficient factory. Real improvement often starts by looking beyond individual equipment and understanding how processes, energy systems and operating decisions affect one another. It’s a holistic approach designed to uncover opportunities that might otherwise be missed.
How a valve reshapes the way food and drinks are made
In food and beverage plants, valves are commonly operated using compressed air. GEA Hydract® Actuation Technology moves valves with water instead, in a closed, digitally controlled circuit. The result is a valve that can be held exactly in place and steered in fine-tuned steps. This results in lower energy use and greater control.
