OPERATIONS
Exciting of beers is making beer foam. As the bottles advance through the assembly line they are filled with beer.Just before they are capped, they are charged with a high pressure shot of water, which causes the beer to foam or excite. This is very important part of the procedure forces gases out of the bottle.Eliminating these trapped gases enhance the flavor and gives the product a longer shelf life. Prior to this method, they tried sonic waves and shaking the bottle. Both methods were ineffective. The new exciting process provides a more consistent quality product with enhanced flavor and longer shelf life. PressureJet has supplied high pressure pump for this application to M/s.
