In an effort to produce beer of the highest quality, Brau Union Hungaria Breweries complies with the latest standards and applies a Quality Control System compliant with localised Hungarian Standard (MSZEN) ISO 9001:2001, and runs an MSZEN ISO 14001-compliant HACCP-integrated Environment Management System, The Association of Hungarian Brewers (AHB) published in its 2005 Annual Report.

In 2005, a new Total Productive Maintenance (TPM) system from Japan was also introduced to further improved quality and production efficiency.

Brau Union Hungaria Breweries is operating in Hungary as an affiliate of the international Heineken Group. The history of the Group and the famous Dutch Heineken beer dates back to 1863, when its founder Gerard Adriaan Heineken purchased the largest brewery in the Netherlands, known as De Hooiberg (the “Haystack”). With a mission to brew the best quality beer in the world, Mr. Heineken and his colleague, Dr. Elion (a former student of Louis Pasteur in Paris) developed the famous A-yeast. This yeast still guarantees the special unique flavour of the beer today and has contributed to making Heineken the “most international” beer of the world, marketed in 175 countries.

The Hungarian member of the Group, Brau Union Hungaria Breweries also has more than hundred years ...

Scientific Digest
Storage Conditions Affect the Quality of Malting Barley

R. Reuss, J. Cassells and R. Nischwitz

CSIRO Stored Grain Research Laboratory, Canberra, ACT 2601, Australia
Barrett Burston Malting Co, Richmond, Victoria 3121, Australia

INTRODUCTION: The effect of storage conditions on the quality of barley is of considerable importance to the barley, malting and brewing industry. Storage can either reduce barley quality (Woods et al. 1994, White et al. 1999), or increase maltability (Woonton et al. 2001). To maximise quality of previously stored barley entering the malt house, the influence of storage environments on post-harvest maturation and changes in malting quality of contemporary Australian barley varieties needs to be better understood. Here we present some preliminary results of a three year project that aims to understand the interaction between storage conditions and barley quality. Samples of the malting barley varieties Stirling, Sloop and Gairdner were selected for storage trials, and stored under controlled conditions. The quality of the grain was then followed using germination tests, kernel colour measurements, enzyme analysis, Rapid Visco Analyser (RVA) tests and malting quality analysis.
