ProCarb Inline Carbonation for craft brewery centrifuges
Alfa Laval’s centrifugal separators swiftly and carefully remove core solids from your brew. They maximize product recovery, while securing the flavour and character of your beer. By adding ProCarb Inline Carbonation to your centrifuge, you get clarified beer with high-quality carbonation – at a fraction of the time traditionally required.
- Boost productivity with rapid clarification and carbonation
- Save space with no need for extra equipment
- Reduce oxygen pick-up with advanced centrifuge design
- Get precise process control with easy-to-operate system
Carbonate with superior quality and speed
By injecting CO2 during centrifugation, ProCarb produces instant carbonation of the highest quality. Inside the centrifuge strong G-forces combine to compress and fully dissolve the gas throughout the beer. In a matter of hours, you complete two processes that traditionally take days. The result is a properly carbonated beer, producing a tight and stable foamy head when poured.
The perfect match for your brewery
The ProCarb module is available as an option with Alfa Laval’s craft beer centrifuges: Brew 20, Brew 80, and Brew 250. Contact us to get a quote on a complete, integrated clarification and carbonation system.
Know more about Jackie O’s experience with ProCarb
ProCarb has greatly enhanced their carbonation process. When the product reaches the brite tank, it has already been centrifuged and is as clean as possible. It’s also pre-carbonated, eliminating the need for a carb stone or the entire carbonation step in the brite tank. The beer is about 97% ready to package at that stage. Before implementing the Brew 250 and ProCarb, beers would stay in the brite tanks for three to four days. Now, it’s reduced to just one or two days. This shorter process saves labor, time, and overall production costs.
Expertise in collaboration
ProCarb is a patented inline carbonation system from renowned American craft brewery suppliers ProBrew. After many years of partnership, we collaborated to create an integrated carbonation and centrifugal separation system. A unique two-in-one solution “to help brewers produce better beer, faster and more consistently.”
Yes, ProCarb is definitely a winner for us. ”
