METHOD OF BREWING FLAVOURED DARK BEER Russian patent published in 2010 - IPC C12C12/00 

FIELD: chemistry.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to brewing technology. The method involves mixing anise and hop. The obtained mixture is extracted using liquid nitrogen with separation of the corresponding miscella. Girasol/sunflower is cut, dried and roasted. The girasol/sunflower is mixed with malt. The obtained mixture is saturated with the separated miscella while simultaneously increasing pressure. Pressure is lowered to atmospheric pressure level with simultaneous freezing of the mixture and cryogenic grinding in the medium of released nitrogen. Sugar and water are added and the mixture is saccharified to obtain wort. Brewing yeast is added to the wort. Primary fermentation, after-fermentation and filtration are then carried out.

EFFECT: method shortens duration of the process and increases foam stability of the end product.
