Abstract
The invention provides a continuous method for the production of a yeast fermented beverage, comprising consecutive continuous processing steps; wherein the gravity of a mash extract is maintained at more than 22° P; the gravity of the wort produced from the mash extract is maintained at more than 22° P until said wort is diluted with additional water; and the gravity of the diluted wort is within the range of 10-35° P; and wherein less than 30 wt. % of the fermentable sugars in the mash extract and wort are derived from fermentable sugars added after hydrolysis of the starch contained in the mash. The method offers the advantage that it is highly efficient in terms of energy consumption and extraction yields. Furthermore, it achieves extremely high productivity, especially in the operation of the brewhouse.
