Savagewood Brewing Co. is ensuring the quality of its beer as it is brewed and served, by tracking the effectiveness of its glycol chiller temperature-monitoring solution and cold-storage area. The fermentation stage of the brewing process is especially sensitive to temperatures. Beer is poured into fermentation vessels with yeast, where the beverage needs to be kept at about 68 degrees Fahrenheit. If the liquid becomes too hot or cold, the yeast will die. A glycol chiller is used to ensure the beer remains at that temperature, even on a hot summer day. Learn how the brewery is employing the Internet of Things solution to capture and manage sensor data and issue alerts regarding any sensor reading changes that might require attention.
