Oxidation, the culprit of beer waste Breweries lose thousands of liters of beer every year – not from bad recipes, but from something they can’t see: oxidation.

Nowadays long distribution networks exist to allow brewers to share their creations globally. These long networks contain a potential risk. The conditions surrounding [...]
