3 About Alco Alcollyzer yzer Plus lus Bee Beer r Alcolyzer Plus Beer is based on a highly accurate and patented NIR spectrometer, which measures the alcohol content of beer in the concentration range of 0 - 12%V/V. Optionally, Alcolyzer Plus Beer can also be equipped with a color measurement device and a pH measurement device. The color value (EBC or ASBC value) is determined by the measurement of light absorption. For the pH measurement, an electrode Hamilton (Polilyte Lab) or a measuring cell Orion (model 91-63) is used. In combination with an Anton Paar density meter DMA 4500/5000 and a sample changer SP-1m, the automatic determination of relevant beer parameters can be achieved.
