Scientific Digest


Possible character impact compounds in the hop varieties Citra®, Centennial and Nelson Sauvin

ABSTRACT
To find this was the goal of this US research team. Using AEDA and GC-Olfactometry they found myrcene and alpha-pinene to have the highest FD (Flavour Dilution) Factor in the nonpolar fraction, hence to be of importance. In the polar fraction they found geraniol and linalool but also isovaleric acid and vanillin plus a sulfur component to have the highest FD factors. The sulfur component was identified as S-methyl methanethiosulfonate. The latter compound still needs to be confirmed. Even with this identification, the uniqueness of these three hop varieties cannot be explained.

Brewery news USA: MillerCoors says sales jumped after it switched 32-ounce and 40-ounce beer bottles from glass to plastic
MillerCoors LLC saw a jump in sales when it switched 32-ounce and 40-ounce beer bottles from glass to plastic in 2014, Waste Dive reported on October 6.

Jonah Smith, the company's sustainability manager for policy and reporting, said about 1% of sales are through plastic bottles, and that number could increase, though it's unsure when. Most beer comes in aluminum cans and glass bottles.

The packaging switch cut the products’ carbon footprint by 25%, saving tens of millions of dollars, Smith told the Plastic Caps & Closures Conference in Itasca, IL. Container weight was reduced by about a pound for each bottle, lowering the tonnage of products that distributors ship.

Smith said the use of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) bottles will increase "within 10 to 15 years ... as more MRFs, materials recovery facilities, improve their technologies in how best to recycle PET."


Brewery news Zimbabwe: SABMiller’s Delta Corporations says lager volumes return to growth in Q2
Delta Corporations Limited, the Zimbabwean brewer that’s the southern African nation’s biggest company by market value, said lager volumes returned to growth in the second quarter as price cuts and a shift by drinkers to cheaper brands boosted consumption, The Zimbabwe Daily reported on October 6.

Volumes of the alcoholic beverage gained 5 percent in the three months through September, compared with a 29 percent fall in the same period a year earlier, the unit of London-based SABMiller Plc said in an e-mailed statement on October 6. Total revenue fell 6 percent in the period, as lower prices and a 14 percent slump in sales of sparkling drinks weighed.

“Price adjustments were implemented to stimulate volume, with particular focus on core lager which remains in decline,” the Harare-based company said. “The trading environment remains challenging.”

Delta lowered the price of a pint of lager to 80 cents from 90 cents this month, the second price cut this year. Zimbabwean consumer spending has been weak amid the country’s worst economic crisis since 2008, as businesses battle tight liquidity and deflation, while the government struggles to pay civil-service wages on time.


Brewery news Tanzania: Tanzania Breweries Limited producing greener beer at its Mwanza plant
Green beer may not sound too appealing, but in Mwanza, Tanzania, it's going down a treat. A locally produced "greener" brew not only slakes thirst but is reducing the carbon footprint of the country's second largest city, Mail Online reported on October 6.

Tanzania Breweries Limited is tapping biomass energy to produce more sustainable beer while cutting its fuel costs.

"We have adopted new technology which has enabled us to use rice husks as fuel for our boilers instead of heavy furnace oil," said Sunday Kidolezi, manager for the firm's Mwanza utility in the north of the East African country.

The husks used to generate electricity are considered a waste product by local farmers. Growers tend to leave them piled in huge mounds, burn them outdoors or dump them in the forest, making them a source of climate-changing carbon emissions.

According to Kidolezi, more than 60 percent of the Mwanza factory's electricity now comes from the husks, which it buys from local farmers. Furnace oil accounts for just 10 percent of the energy the company uses, with the balance coming from the national grid.

As a result, the brewery has halved carbon emissions at its Mwanza plant, to 4,451 tonnes in 2014 from 8,909 tonnes ...More info on site

Barley news Switzerland & France & Germany: Ameropa and Vivescia terminate negotiations on sale of malting barley trader Interbrau
Swiss grain trading group Ameropa said on September 28 it would not go ahead with the sale of German malting barley trader Interbrau GmbH to French co-operative group Vivescia, as conditions for the deal had not been met.

The companies entered into an agreement in mid-July for the takeover of Interbrau by Vivescia, parent of the world’s biggest maltster Malteurop, for an undisclosed amount. Ameropa said the deal was still subject to certain conditions.

“These conditions have failed to materialize, and the parties have therefore terminated their negotiations,” it said in a statement without giving further details.

Ameropa is among the leading grain traders in central and Eastern Europe. The company had said in July the deal with Vivescia came as it was making sizeable investments to enhance its grain origination infrastructure, including the construction of a new port terminal at Constanta in Romania.

“Whereas we believe that the transaction could have been beneficial to all parties involved, we are no less pleased that Interbrau will remain a member of the Ameropa Group and we shall continue to give it our full support,” the company said.

Interbrau specializes in international malting barley trading and logistics, and operates in Europe, Latin America, Asia, Australia and Canada.
