Stabilise brewing without constraining production

Brewing relies on a sequence of biological and thermal steps - mashing, filtration, boiling, fermentation and packaging - where temperature, time, oxygen and raw material quality directly influence yield, stability and product profile.

Even minor deviations can impact extraction, fermentation kinetics, energy consumption or organoleptic consistency.

Indao transforms data from the brewhouse, fermentation, utilities and packaging into reliable operational indicators and concrete recommendations.

Why brewing processes are different

Processes where biology, thermal control and industrial performance must remain perfectly aligned.

Sensitive biological processes

Fermentation strongly depends on temperature, oxygenation and yeast conditions, influencing yield and flavour profile.

Balance between quality and efficiency

Every process adjustment directly impacts taste, foam stability, colour and product consistency.

Strong dependence on utilities

Cooling, steam, water and CIP represent a significant share of operational costs and overall performance.

The challenges you face

  • Fermentation stability: control of thermal profiles and monitoring of fermentation kinetics
  • Brewing yield: optimisation of extraction, reduction of wort losses and improvement of material yield
  • Product quality & consistency: maintaining organoleptic profile despite raw material variability
  • Energy & utilities: optimisation of steam, industrial cooling, water and cleaning-in-place (CIP)
  • Equipment availability: management of fouling, equipment drift and unplanned downtime

The limits of your current tools

  • Data often siloed between brewhouse, fermentation, utilities and packaging
  • Control based on isolated indicators rather than overall process dynamics
  • Quality and laboratory analyses available too late
  • Difficulty correlating fermentation parameters with final results
  • Limited visibility on actual energy performance per batch or recipe

What Indao delivers in practice

We design advanced analytics solutions that genuinely improve control of brewing processes, with AI as a support - explainable, controlled and field-oriented.

Real-time tracking of key parameters (temperature, density, pressure, oxygen) within the context of recipe and actual operating conditions
Continuous estimation of indicators such as fermentation progress or extraction yield based on process data
Analysis of interactions between brewing, fermentation and utilities to identify levers for stability and performance
Identification of steam, cooling and water overconsumption to improve overall energy efficiency
Structured historisation of process parameters to ensure reproducibility and support quality analysis
Connection to existing systems (SCADA, historians, laboratory, energy monitoring) without disrupting production practices
