Announcements - We want to work with you!

Need testing? Check out our lab.

Need test kits? Check out our chemical company.

We are currently running a promotion for anyone who wants to try our VDK (diacetyl) or titratable acidity (TA) test kits. Any one who is interested can receive a free demo kit of each if you can cover the cost of shipping & handling ($25). We know that once you try them, you'll want to keep using them. Visit our website (beyerschemical.com/promotions) for more details.

Beer Research

We recently used the Beyers Chemical Co. VDK+ Test Kit to survey >30 beers purchased off-the-shelf for VDK levels. We collected VDK data for several different beer types, including ales, lagers, porters, stouts, sours, IPA's, and wheat beers. Respond to this email if you want us to email you the white paper as soon as it is done!

Kombucha Research

Many kombucha brewers always ask us how their kombucha compares to other kombuchas on the market. We recently re-discovered a study we performed at KombuchaKon in 2019 that explored Brix and titratable acidity levels in over 50 different kombucha samples provided by attendees.

Free Poster!

Feel free to download this graphic poster that we made in an attempt to summarize all of the quality check points to be aware of in your process.

Get More Knowledge!

Our knowledge base blog is up-and-running. We have white papers, scientific posters, blog articles, videos, and more. Our goal is to add content weekly, and we hope that it will become a useful resource for you. Additionally, always feel free to reach out if you need help with testing, consultation, or identifying and understanding solutions for problems that come up.

Instrument for Sale

We recently upgraded our GC-FID and are selling the old instrument. It is a HP 5890 Series II GC-FID in good working order. It comes with a computer running the control software. We can also provide regulators and/or training if needed for performing ABV analysis using GC-FID. Email us if you are interested!

Closing Thoughts

As always, we sincerely appreciate your time and business. We love being a part of this industry, and the lab and the kits would not be possible without you. Thank you!
