ABER Instruments is now selling its yeast management solutions direct to breweries in United States, Canada

Founded over 30 years ago, ABER is a leader in advanced bio-capacitance technology, supporting a bunch of the world’s leading biopharmas and brewing companies. You may have previously purchased its equipment via Gusmer Enterprises. Well, that’s changing. Starting now, the service, sales and technical support for ABER’s brewing systems in the U.S. and Canada will come directly from ABER.

Yes, U.S. breweries will now have direct access to ABER’s extensive experience in providing automated yeast management solutions to a global market. Here’s a refresher on what ABER has to offer.

ABER’s brewing portfolio of products

ABER is focused on effective yeast management. The COMPACT Yeast Monitor is an in-line sensor and Plc, utilized by many of the world’s largest breweries such as AB Inbev, Diageo, Heineken and expanding craft breweries, for in-line automated pitching, cropping fermentation monitoring and yeast propagation monitoring.

The most familiar product for breweries in the U.S., tailored most to suit craft breweries and their teams, is ABER’s portable yeast pitching skid — the Perfect Pitch. A number of case studies attest to its usefulness and effectiveness for pitching just the right amount of ‘living’ yeast, using its in-built sensor, flow meter and interactive touchscreen for recording the pitch run.

ABER’s Perfect Pitch has numerous benefits for growing craft breweries. Independent studies have concluded that the Perfect Pitch can create significant improvements in the performance and consistency of fermentations, along with reducing fermentation times, which could result in energy, cost and efficiency savings. This empowers users to better plan and even schedule more fermentations per month or year, increasing brewery output without having to invest in real estate

We’ve covered that previously here.

In addition to these systems, ABER offers an automated yeast cell counter known as the ABER Countstar. Accurate Lab yeast counts can be gained in just 20 seconds.
