France & Germany: Barley prices drop influenced by other grain markets

Barley markets over the last week were inactive, experts report. Prices dropped in connection with the other grain markets without any large business.

According to traders, French 2RS barley was offered at EUR 159, July, FOB Creil, and EUR 168, July, FOB Moselle. 6RW barley had nominal values: Esterel EUR 145, Cervoise 135, both July, FOB Creil, however a premium of only EUR 5 FOB Moselle. German 2RS malting barley dropped to EUR 180, autumn/winter delivery, delivered Rhine and (river) Main stations, it is reported.

Premiums for new crop 2009 barley are EUR 15 to 20 per ton in both countries, but it is difficult to purchase large quantities, experts inform. The expectation is for smaller acreage and consequently firmer markets next year.

On-Line Estimation and Control of Apparent Extract Concentration in Low-Malt Beer Fermentation

Michiko Kobayashi, Toshinari Hiroshima, Keisuke Nagahisa, Hiroshi Shimizu and Suteaki Shioya

Abstract

J. Inst. Brew. 111(2), 128–136, 2005 Apparent extract concentration, which is defined as the apparent total dry matter concentration in the media calculated by measurement of the specific gravity, is a very important variable in the process of beer and low-malt beer fermentation. In the present study, ethanol formation and the residual apparent extract concentration were estimated using the CO2 concentration in the exhaust gas. A simple mathematical model involving the CO2 production rate, temperature and cell activity was constructed and a novel system for on-line estimation and control of apparent extract concentration was developed. In the control system for the residual apparent extract concentration, cell activity was estimated by monitoring the differences in actual CO2 production rate. In addition, the future trajectory of the apparent extract concentration was predicted. The degree of fermentation, i.e., the residual apparent extract concentration trajectory, was controlled by raising or lowering the temperature, taking into account the estimated cell activity at that time. The residual apparent extract concentration reached the target value at a given time, using the on-line estimation of apparent extract concentration and temperature control. Key words: Apparent extract, CO2 production rate, control, lowmalt beer, on-line estimation. Load full article, 9 pages, 1039 Kb, PDF file
