Cleaning is an important process in any production, especially in food and beverage industry. This is due to it have to keep the standard regulated by the Food and Drugs Administration (FDA) to make sure that the food from the production is safe to be consumed by the consumers and less case of poisoning occurs. In beer production, the cleaning process involved in maintaining a hygienic level of the equipment of the brewing process, especially the tank or vessel that is used during the fermentation of the brewer’s yeast. In any cleaning process, three factors will affect the cleaning process which is time, temperature and concentration. The first factor which is temperature is important so that the killing of bacteria can occur, especially by using a hot steaming water. In the production of beer the recommended temperature to clean is around 760°C but the water cannot be too hot since it may affect the process of fermentation of the beer later. The next factor is the time. In cleaning the equipment sometimes a long time does not guarantee a cleaner environment because some equipment only needs a flash rinsing. Even different vessels require different time for cleaning. Most fermenter tanks required more time as they leave more residue in the tank depending on the type of yeast used. A …show more content…
Cleaning process, including using moderate caustic detergent with chelating and surfactant supplements following a washing cycle. In the tank, separation of yeast and beer occur and concentrating operations also happened with some microorganisms entrained with yeast as deposited in the tank. Wild yeast, wort spoilers, bacteria and beer spoilt lactic acid may present along in the tank. Citric acid will be the recommended solution since it is difficult to maintain a proper pH. The tank will be acidify until the pH is stable around 2 to 3 which will result in the reduced number of contaminating
The strengths of Creemore Springs are their access to natural spring water, unique recipe, and reputation for producing high quality beer. This reputation has earned them numerous awards since their induction in 1987. Creemore Spring’s weaknesses is their current, complex cleaning process which results in broken and chipped bottles. Opportunities available to Creemore Springs include the municipal sewer service that would provide them with financial savings when disposing of their effluent water. The current threats to Creemore Spring’s successful operation are the two major beer brands that control 90% of the beer market and the bottle cleaning contracts lack of quality control.
The temperatures will be set up by using ice to cool tap water down to lower temperatures and boiling water to heat it up. The temperature will be measured to within 0.1°C on a mercury thermometer to ensure accuracy. The temperatures will range from 10°C to approximately 40 °C and it will be done at 5° C intervals.
Understanding the process of brewing will help explain the time limitations of brewing and storing beer, and will ultimately help explain how this tug of war came into existence, as the process of brewing itself is largely responsible for the limited availability of beer early in American history. The process begins with malted barley which is heated to, and held at, a temperature between 60o and 71o C. This process is known as mashing and serves to activate the amylase enzymes which convert the complex starches into fermentable and unfermentable sugars. The wort is then transferred to a boil kettle where hops are introduced and the liquid is boiled extensively to isomerize the bittering oils in the hops. In their isomerized states, these oils will be more soluble and able to impart their bittering qualities into the wort. Finally the wort is chilled as it is transferred into a fermenter and yeast is added to begin the fermentation. The fermenter is sealed from the environment to prevent oxygen, which would stop fermentation, from entering. Fermentation must then be carried out at cool temperatures – about 18o C when using ale yeast and much colder when using lager yeast. Fermentation above these temperatures will still occur but yields an unpalatable product. These temperature requirements made beer a seasonal beverage and limited storage prior to the advent of mechanical refrigeration.
Although a freshwater tank can be full or color, it does not come close to the fiery colors that are present in a marine aquarium. Unfortunately, all the color and life that a marine aquarium holds is much more fragile and not as easy to keep as a freshwater tank. Therefore, the marine aquarium requires a plethora of devices working together and at optimum levels to maintain a successful tank. Items like protein skimmers, ultraviolet filters, sump filters, reverse osmosis units, and even wave-makers are just a few of the devices that are required to properly maintain a marine aquarium. With the exception to a properly constructed tank, nothing is as important to the marine aquarium as the water within the tank and the lighting given its inhabitants.
Attach a buret clamp (located under the hood) to a ring stand. b. Rinse the burets three times with approximately 10 ml of deionized water. Tilt and rotate the buret in an almost horizontal position (don't let the water spillout!) to rinse the entire inside wall. Allow about 5 ml of water to run through the buret tip on the last rinse. c. Pre-rinse one buret with approximately 5 ml of your Unknown acid solution. Again, rotate the buret to rinse the entire inside wall of the buret as above. d. Clamp the buret in one side of the buret clamp. Place a white piece of paper labeled "Unknown acid" under this buret. Drain any remaining pre-rinse acid solution into a beaker labeled "waste solution". e. Fill this buret with your Unknown acid solution to the zero mark or slightly below it (Not above the zero mark). Make sure the tip of the buret is completely filled and contains no air bubbles. f. Pre-rinse the second buret with approximately 5 ml of standard base solution. Clamp the buret in the other side of the buret clamp. Place a white piece of paper labeled "Standard NaOH solution" under the buret. Drain remaining prerinse NaOH solution into the waste solution beaker. Fill this buret with standard
Fact finding is a vital process in the furtherance of any business. The process enables the sales people to gain a wide range of information about prospects. These research also enables the business to be efficient by aligning its functions strategically. It entails proving or disproving our own theories and taking some action and doing something with the information by organizing it in a tangible manner. Fact finding techniques will enable Kahuna Cleaning Supply to determine its weaknesses and take advantage of its strengths. Solutions will be designed based on the outcomes of the reviews of the documents and the general observation of the system. The stakeholders within the organization will also come handy in highlighting their views and experiences with the system through interviews and questionnaires. This will successfully give recommendations on solutions affecting the company.

Saturated sodium chloride solution, also known as brine solution, is used to wash the distillate mixture. The distillate mixture is the phosphoric acid the co-distilled with the product. The brine solution also removes most of the water from the 4-methylcyclohexane layer. When six drops of 4-methylcyclohexene were added with two
This lab has two sections. The first section deals with fermentation. The purpose of the fermentation lab is to alter 5 different independent variables (temperature, acid ph, alkali ph, enzyme concentration, and substrate concentration), to learn about their effects on the ongoing process of fermentation.
There are several types of treatment methods present but biological treatment methods have gained much traction in the recent years due to their low operation costs, comparatively benign effects on the environment and their ease of handling and maintenance. Biological wastewater treatment methods can be subcategorized into dispersed growth systems and attached growth systems. Biofilms fall under the latter category (Sehar & Naz, 2016)
The bacteria and wastewater is mixed in an aeration tank and therefore the contaminants are removed by action of sorption and series of breakdown by the bacteria.
Inconsistencies in this lab could have caused variations in data collecting. Collecting data from one petri dish was challenging because something could have been different on other petri dishes if this experiment was tested on several petri dishes. This could have been different because the other petri dishes could have had more micro-organisms in Section 2 instead of Section 1, or no bacteria could have grown at all in every section of the petri dish.- Second, nothing grew in section B even though there were no disinfectants in that section. The reason why the bacteria and mold might have grown in sections 1, 2, and 3 was because in the process of making the experiment, the coffee filter papers were touched with glove free hands and were not clean. If this lab was run again, some changes would be to wear rubber gloves, do not pour the hand sanitizers on the coffee filter paper but just pour one pump straight into the petri dish, have more than one petri dish to collect data off of, and check when the last time someone cleaned the door knob
There were five test solutions used in this experiment, water being the control, which were mixed with a yeast solution to cause fermentation. A 1ml pipetman was used to measure 1 ml of each of the test solutions and placed them in separated test tubes. The 1 ml pipetman was then used to take 1ml of the yeast solution, and placed 1ml of yeast into the five test tubes all containing 1 ml of the test solutions. A 1ml graduated pipette was placed separately in each of the test tubes and extracted 1ml of the solutions into it. Once the mixture was in the pipette, someone from the group placed a piece of parafilm securely on the open end of the pipette and upon completion removed the top part of the graduated pipette.
