Key features
Quality control throughout the entire brewing process
Quality control throughout the brewing process is critical to ensure each batch meets the highest standards of excellence. These systems meticulously monitor the density and alcohol content from the initial brewing stages to the final product – enabling consistent flavor profiles and potency while enhancing overall product reliability. By integrating Beer Measurement Systems into their processes, breweries can streamline their operations, minimize human error, increase efficiency, and ensure compliance with labelling requirements.

Simple calibration and flexible product adjustment
The Beer Measurement Systems are designed for effortless calibration and product-independent adjustments to ensure optimal performance across various beverage types. In a few simple steps, users can calibrate the systems to accurately measure density and alcohol content – regardless of the product being processed – enabling seamless transition between different beers, ciders, and other fermented beverages without the need for extensive reconfiguration.
Features like U-View™, U-Dry, U-Pulse, and FillingCheck™ help breweries maintain consistent quality control and adapt to changing production demands with ease. Adjustments can also be made quickly and accurately, minimizing downtime and enhancing productivity.

Secure data storage: AP Connect lab execution software
AP Connect’s intuitive interface simplifies the tracking of batch-to-batch variations, ensuring consistency in brewing quality.
The lab execution software manages all your data storage needs effortlessly to eliminate concerns about space and security. Every data point is accurately captured and readily accessible, with robust tools for easy analysis and retrieval – facilitating a deeper understanding of production trends and quality.
With AP Connect, breweries can focus on perfecting their craft, confident that their data is secure and managed with precision.

Precise and reliable density measurements
The superior DMA density meter included with the Beer Measurement Systems comes equipped with the innovative FillingCheck™ technology – designed to safeguard your process and ensure every measurement contributes to superior quality control. This advanced feature provides real-time filling warnings that alert operators to any inconsistencies or errors during sample input, ensuring your measurements are both robust and repeatable.
