Beer is soulful and serious. Its preparation, fine-tuning of the process, improvement and production of brewing equipment are still done by the best brewing professionals in the brewing industry.

Beer is a very popular drink, especially in the warm and hot season. Beer has its own history, but for the whole time of its existence it has already happened that the traditional packaging of beer is considered to be glass and plastic beaches, aluminum cans and kegs. The glass beads are sealed with a crown crush, the pet beads with a plastic cap. Read about other types of blockages in the article “Capping for alcoholic products. Manufacturers of closures”.

If you are interested in where you can buy glass beaches for beer, read the list of manufacturers of slotary in Ukraine, Russia and abroad. You will be able to choose the best option for yourself.

In addition, you may be interested in marketing research of the beer market. And in this article we will look at the process of beer production, and analyze all types of packaging for beer.

Modern brewing

The historically formed beer brewing process, which came down to us from the Sumerians and the Germans, has preserved all the stages of brewing. Advanced equipment, all automatic control of the process allow not only to brew old traditional beers, but also to create new ones.

Beer production process consists of several stages

1. Preparation of malt – germination of grains of used cereals, drying, purification from parosticki. Dried grain is unable to yield proteins, the zucor in it is in the form of starch. So, in order to “awaken” the grain, it is sprouted. Barley grains are most often used for beer production.

2. Malt mashing. To produce a particular type of beer, a certain mash recipe is used – a mixture of different types of malt and other necessary ingredients. Dissolve the malt with water (mash it) in a boiler and heat it to the required temperature.

3. at the stage of filtration the mash is pumped into the filter tank, where the unripened pellets and wort are separated. Beer pellets are considered to be a waste product of the brewing process and are a sum of kernel particles and shells of grains. Beer pellets are used to feed animals or for the production of biogas.

4. Wort boiling. Then add hops and other ingredients to the unhopped wort, and cook in the wort boiler for 1-2 years. Thanks to the hops, the beer acquires a characteristic brightness, flavor and a strong stubble. Ukrainian brewers mainly use domestic hops, but also import Bavarian (Germany), Czech (Czechia), English and American hops.

5. Wort clarification and cooling. The ready wort is pumped into the whirlpool, where the bilk and non-dewy residues of grains and hops are separated. Afterwards, the wort is cooled in a special plate cooler and pumped into tanks for fermentation.

6. Brodding starts in cylindro-conical vertical tanks. During the fermentation process, alcohol and carbon dioxide gas are produced as a result of the interaction between the sucrose in the Sulphur and the yeast added to the wort. The carbon dioxide gas sours the wort, and then its surplus is collected and discharged through a special pipe. Hour of vagrancy, its temperature depend on:

and the type of beer they want to get – top or bottom noise.

In order for fermentation to proceed properly, it is necessary to constantly maintain the temperature of the wort, so the tank is cooled. For the production of top-fermenting beer, the temperature of 15-20°C is maintained, for bottom-fermenting beer – 6-9°C. The absence of froth on the surface of the wort is an indicator of the end of the fermentation process. At the bottom of the tank for fermentation collect all the dressed sediments and layers of protein spores, after the end of fermentation they are removed. As a result of fermentation we get young “green” beer, which is cooled down and then matured at 0-1°C.

7. Filtration of beer from the residue of drilled liquid. Industrial breweries for beer filtration use Kieselguhr filters, separators, filter presses, fine filters.

Clarified (filtered) beer is collected in forfas – special containers for storage before bottling.

8. Pasteurization of beer – to increase the shelf life of beer, some types of beer are heated to a temperature of 68-72 °C. At some breweries beer is pasteurized already in the beakers, at others – before bottling. It is believed that heating beer (pasteurization) impairs its flavor.

9. Dispensing is carried out on special fast dispensers (machines). The cleanliness of the packaging and the speed of removing the air from the beads determine the storage time of beer. Some breweries have their own workshop for the production of glass or PET beer flats. The beer bottles are hermetically sealed and a special labeling machine puts a label on them.

Beer packaging

Today’s brewers fill beer into kegs, glass cans, aluminum cans and PET cans.

Beer was bottled in glass bottles as early as 1841. Today the glass beater for beer is produced mainly in dark green or brown glass. This is due to the fact that beer changes its quality characteristics when exposed to light. As of today, some brewers still fill beer in a prozor beach, for example:

The design of beer be ads of different beer producers is ambiguous: some consider the bead itself as a usual container, and some believe that the shape of the bead should attract new customers. When positioning a small-sized beer bottle (0.33 liters), marketers asserted that the bottle is easy to hold in the hand, it is pleasant to take, and the amount of liquid is enough to satisfy a one-time consumption of beer. The traditional and most popular capacity for a glass beach is 0.5 liters.

Recently, the famous Baltika brand changed the traditional capacity of a glass bottle from 0.5 liters to 0.47 liters. According to the company’s president, this was done in order to create a culture of responsibility for alcohol consumption and to support the policy to combat alcohol abuse. However, in truth, there is a simple marketing explanation: the price of the reduced tariff remained at the previous level.

An aluminum, blush beer can.

In 1958 the first bottling was started in aluminum cans with a ring. Today’s popular “stay-on-tab” (stay-on-tab) was introduced in 1975. From the point of view of preserving the properties of beer aluminum can is ideal, although superstitions about its hygienic nature are not felt until now.

Malunok is applied on aluminievu jar by the method of the usual polygraphic druku. The inner surface of the can is protected with a special food ball, so that beer does not come into contact with aluminum alloy.

The usual capacity of the jar is 0.33 liters, 0.5 liters and 1 liter. Aluminum cans with a capacity of 0.5 L are popular. In the Republic of Belarus there was even a special special cap, which was supposed to fit on the can and protect it from contamination. Aluminum containers are considered to be highly environmentally friendly, as they are easily recycled after collection. Beer in gristiani can easily cooled, the thickness of the walls of the can is only 0.11 mm, but the can can withstands the pressure up to 6 atmospheres and a weight of 115 kg. The aluminum can is 22 times lighter than a glass can, so it is easy to transport and store.

The shape of the jar is not committed to the designers, so all the attention is focused on the design of the jar. The most frequently designed label for a glass beach serves as a basis for a mallunka on an aluminievyj jar.

Polymer containers (PET flat) were created by DuPont to make packaging for beverages easier. A typical glass container weighs up to 350 grams, while a PET container weighs 28 grams. Plastic containers, while having advantages, have disadvantages: they allow UV changes and sourness to pass through and release carbon dioxide gas. Therefore, the storage time of beer in PET bottles is reduced. In Germany, beer in such containers is not sold after two months, while in our country it can be sold for up to four months.

In general, the production of plastic beaches is carried out at breweries themselves, so as not to degrade the hygiene characteristics of the beaches. Standard volume of PET beer – 1 liter, 1.5 liter, 2 liters.

Beer in kegs

Producers began bottling keg beer in the middle of the nineteen twenties, but the real boom fell on 2004. Keg – akeg of stainless steel, often capacity of 5 to 100 liters. In order to prevent the beer from spilling out and it could be properly filled afterwards, a special valve is installed on the keg. For filling, a special filling and cooling unit is attached to this valve. Realization period of keg beer is much longer than that of traditional lager beer.

A beer label

Marketers and designers believe that brand building starts not from the quality of beer, but from its packaging. This postulate is especially effective today in Russia, where beer advertising has been banned since 2011. Recognizability of the beach, its shape, color and label is the main rule of today’s sales.

The label is glued on the glass and PET flat by a special labeling machine. Brewers are very careful about the quality of the label: on the one hand, it must not rub off or get wet, on the other hand, it must be easy to glue off, as the glass beach is used many times. From the label, its shape is a turbot of designers. A label is glued on the front side of the beach, a counter label on the back, and a colliery in the narrow part (closer to the neck). For labels manufacturers use only brushed high quality papier, sometimes on a metalized base.

The content of the writing on labels is regulated by the law “On Protection of Consumer Rights”, according to which all information must be true and not deceive the buyer.

The latest research of marketers has revealed an unambiguous trend: the confidence of buyers in the label is much higher than it can be assumed, and unfamiliar (new) goods in seventy hundred out of a hundred are chosen exclusively for the label.
