SalvoPlus

Appearance

SalvoPlus is a yellow, liquid hop extract.

Flavor

SalvoPlus contains typical hop aroma components of hop-forwaded beers. Depending on the quantity dosed and the time of dosing, a strong or subtle hop aroma can be achieved. Late additions of SalvoPlus in the brewhouse/whirlpool give the finished beer a typical "late hop" aroma. In the cold section, SalvoPlus will contribute to a typical "dry hop" aroma.

Utilization

The utilization of Linalool can be up to 100%, varying from brewery to brewery due to differences in equipment and process conditions, such as dosing point. The yield of specific hop aroma substances from SalvoPlus is significantly higher compared to hop addition with pellets with the same hop oil dosage.

Quality

All Hopsteiner® products are processed in facilities which fulfill internationally recognized quality standards. A monitoring system for residues is in place.

Our products are delivered in their respective recommended standard packaging. Alternatives may be possible upon customer request.
Standard packages of our processing plants in the USA (US) and Germany (DE) are:

• HDPE polymer bottles, various sizes (DE / US)
• jerrycans, various sizes (DE / US)

SalvoPlus is used in liquid form to impart a hop aroma to beer. 

Dosage

The dosage in the hot range should be based on the desired linalool content. Late-hopped lager and pilsner beers usually have a linalool concentration in the range of 20 to 100 µg / l, which corresponds to a quantity of SalvoPlus of 4 - 20 ml / hl. In dry hopping, the addition of SalvoPlus is usually based on the total oil content or the desired aroma intensity. The addition should take place during fermentation in order to achieve an ideal aroma in the finished beer. If SalvoPlus is used as a substitute for pellets in existing recipes, 60 - 80 % of the total oil content of the pellets is sufficient to achieve the same aroma intensity with dry hopping. The exact dosage should always be determined by trial and error.

Application

Always warm the container to room temperature before use and shake well. SalvoPlus can be added manually or with an automatic dosing system. Neither preheating is necessary, nor stirring the liquid during dosing. Further dilution of the product is not recommended.

Cleaning Recommendation

Fresh residues of SalvoPlus can be easily removed by rinsing all pipes and vessels with plenty of hot water. Do not allow SalvoPlus to dry.

Storage

The recommended storage temperature in the original unopened packaging is  5 - 15 °C (41 - 59 °F).

Best Before Date

Under the recommended storage conditions, the shelf life from the date of production/ packaging is at least 1 year.
