AI-BASED SOFTWARE TOOLS FOR BEER BREWING MONITORING AND CONTROL

Brewing fermentation is among the most well studied processes in the food industry. Nevertheless, the process still provides challenges to the brewers. It is subject to alteration stemming from the variation in the yeast, a living organism, and due to the complex raw materials of biological origin. With a reliable predictors- artificial intelligence (AI)-based software tools as well as software analyzers for the fermentation monitoring and control one could manage with fewer measurements especially when an early warning gives the operators time to make corrective actions. Our work summarizes research results obtained in intelligent software tools design for beer manufacturing carried out in the Institute of Control and System Research and Institute of Cryobiology and Food Technologies as an answer of world trend in knowledge-based bio-economy establishment.
