The Importance of Recovered CO2 Quality

Brewers Journal Canada recently featured an article by Lenzie Kinyon, brewing expert and DALUM consultant, on the importance of recovered CO2 quality.

Effects Depending on CO2 Purity

While craft brewers have extensive knowledge of malt, hops, and yeast, CO2 quality can sometimes be an afterthought. But poor CO2 purity can lead to off-flavours, inconsistent carbonation, shorter shelf life, and more. As more breweries recover their own CO2, being able to understand purification is vital to maintain high beer quality.

The article covers why CO2 purity matters, the risks of contamination, and how DALUM’s technology delivers beverage-grade CO2 that surpasses the highest industry standards.
