SPRING-MIX is a brand producer to add to a standard base beer with low bitterness (10-12 EBU) as unique requisite to obtain a different beer with a taste and flavour of « green » or « spring » type. SPRING-MIX is a mixture of spices selective CO2 extracts and vegetal essential oils obtained by cold pressing. All the components of the mixture are food grade 100% natural and they have not been in contact with any solvent apart from CO2 which has the GRAS status (generally recognized as safe for food production by the FDA) and which evaporates completely after the extraction.
BENEFIT
- High production flexibility as the brand characterisation comes in the latest step of the process. Nothing has to be changed in the usual production. The only requisite is to produce a base beer with a low bitterness around 10-12 bitterness units. Following the demand one fraction of the beer base can be used for the production of cherry beer and the other fraction is adjusted to the usual bitterness level using isomerised hop extracts (see technical leaflets of Isototal, Tetrasol, Isohumulex).
Rapid market response.
