Cool & fresh! Beer sterile filtration processes play a key role in many of the final stages of modern brewing.     Many breweries now choose sterile filtration as an alternative to pasteurization, because this makes it possible to remove undesirable micro-organisms before the beer is filled into bottles or kegs. This enables you to achieve the highest levels of microbiological safety for your beer – and for consumers – while still maintaining the fresh, natural taste that is essential for sales success.
