Symposium profile: The emphasis will be on novel technologies and most
promising tendencies in malting and brewing, aiming at improvement of malt and
beer quality in a practically feasible way. However, parallel to our continuing
efforts of “moving science into practical solutions”, the focus of this
symposium will be equally well on sustainability and, even more, on the
challenge of integration of technological innovation, cost-efficiency, and
environmentally friendly malt and beer production. From this point of view, the
raw materials and major processing steps in malting and brewing will be treated
and discussed, keeping in mind workable solutions for problems encountered in
daily practice.
