Problem
Craft beverage producers face challenges in efficiently creating high-quality non-alcoholic beverages and hard seltzers from existing recipes. They also need a cost-effective way to accurately measure alcohol by volume (ABV) and calories in-house to ensure regulatory compliance and optimize process control.
Solution
ABV Technology provides equipment solutions that enable craft beverage producers to create non-alcoholic beverages and hard seltzers while maintaining the flavor, color, and aroma of the original beverage. Their Equalizer equipment uses a low-temperature, low-pressure vacuum filtration process to filter the input beverage into a clear base for hard seltzer and a flavorful non-alcoholic beverage. Additionally, their Analyzer allows for in-house measurement of ABV, specific gravity, and calories, ensuring accurate labeling and process repeatability. The Pasteurizer equipment pasteurizes entire packaged pallets of beverages, ensuring that harmful bacteria, yeast, and molds are neutralized.
Target Audience
The primary target audience includes craft breweries, wineries, cideries, and kombucha producers looking to expand their product lines with non-alcoholic options and hard seltzers, while maintaining quality control and meeting regulatory requirements.
