    This document provides information on CraftSol, a highly concentrated liquid silica sol that clarifies beer without filtration. CraftSol works by absorbing haze-forming proteins between 12-60 kDa, causing them to agglomerate and settle out of solution. It can be added at several points in the brewing process, such as in the whirlpool, fermenter, or during storage. Typical dosages range from 20-40 mL/hL, with the optimal addition point determined by brewery-specific testing. CraftSol improves clarification and stability without affecting taste, color, or head retention.

    CraftSol
    High concentrated liquid silica sol to improve clarification without filtration

    Product description 
    CraftSol is a highly concentrated liquid silica sol with a high charge intensity. It is particularly effective in the pH range of wort and 
    beer. CraftSol works by rapidly absorbing the haze forming protein fractions sized between 12 ‐ 60 kDa. 
    CraftSol selectively adsorbs haze‐forming colloids. These colloids agglomerate with the silicic acid in CraftSol, forming an insoluble 
    complex  which  then  settles  out  of  solution.  This  process  completely  removes  the  haze  forming  colloid.  Head  retention,  color, 
    taste, and smell are unaffected. 
    Please follow all federal, state, and local rules, and regulations when applying CraftSol. The application of CraftSol complies with 
    the regulations of the German Purity Law and § 9 of the German Provisional Beer Law. 
    Dosage 
    CraftSol can be added at several different points during the brewing process. To find the optimal stage, in‐house brewery specific 
    tests are recommended. The most effective point of addition depends on the point and place of application, the type of beer, and 
    the type of equipment. The maximum amount to be used in the brewing process can be up to 160ml/hL. 
     
    1.  Addition in the brewhouse 
      Add CraftSol to the whirlpool while the wort is circulating and the transfer from the brew kettle is ~80 % complete. CraftSol 
    can  be  added  either  manually  or  by  dosing  equipment  after  the  transfer  pump.  Continue  until  the  end  of  the  transfer. 
    Alternatively, in a system where whirlpool and brew kettle are the same vessel, CraftSol should be added during whirlpooling 
    immediately after the pump is turned off while the wort is still rapidly circulating. For best results in both cases, do not run 
    the treated wort through a pump. 
    Dosage: 20 ‐ 40 mL/hL (23 ‐ 47 mL/bbl) of hot wort 
    Advantages: 
    • increased hot trub coagulation 
    • formation of a more compact trub cone 
    • early removal of process inhibiting trub 
    • increased colloidal stability of packaged beer 
    2.  Addition in the fermenter 
      CraftSol can be added to the cold wort before the start of the fermentation. Generally, it is injected and blended directly in 
    the fermenter using CO2, or dosed inline. However, care must be taken since CraftSol will remove yeast. 
      Dosage: 20 ‐ 40 mL/hL (23 ‐ 47 mL/bbl) of beer 
    Advantages: 
    • improves the sedimentation of yeast post fermentation 
    • no negative influence on the speed of fermentation 
    • recovered yeast can be reused without negative effects 
    • increased colloidal stability of packaged beer 
    3.  Addition to green beer during storage 
      CraftSol can be added during the transfer between fermenter and storage tank with a dosing system. Alternatively, it can be 
    injected and blended using CO2. 
      Dosage: 20 ‐ 40 mL/hL (23 ‐ 47 mL/bbl) of beer 
      Advantages: 
    • quicker clarification of green beer 
    • improves filter throughput 
    • saves Kieselguhr (diatomaceous earth) by removing colloids before filtration. 
    • improves centrifuge performance by reducing discharges and DO pickup, and increases clarification rate. 
    • increased colloidal stability of packaged beer 
    4.  Addition to finished beer 
      CraftSol can be added to cask or bottle conditioned beer. However, care must be taken as CraftSol will remove yeast. 
      Dosage: 20 ‐ 40 mL/hL (23 ‐ 47 mL/bbl) of beer 
      Advantages: 
    • improves the sedimentation of yeast post‐secondary fermentation 
    • increased colloidal stability of packaged beer 
    Storage 
    CraftSol is sensitive to low temperatures. Store above freezing at all times and protect from frost. Tightly reseal opened container 
    and use as soon as possible.
