Water is the most common component of beer, and its many minerals and nutrients have one of the greatest influences over a beer’s flavour profile. Some minerals in the water are essential to ensuring the correct fermentation of the yeast and the presence of certain flavours, but others, such as chlorine, can be detrimental to a brew.
Reverse Osmosis systems offer a stable and popular starting point to all brewers, producing water that is soft, mildly acidic, and free from foul-tasting contaminants like iron, nitrates and chlorines. Chloramines, a common adversary to brewers, can also be removed from the water using our premium carbon cartridges. Water filtration thus allows for extensive control over taste during the brewing process, ensuring an innovative and high-quality beer. The combination of reverse osmosis and the final UV sterilisation stage will remove bacteria from source water and prevent future microorganism growth throughout the brewing process.
