food safety in brewing

Food safety in brewing ensures that the beer is free from harmful bacteria, wild yeasts, or contaminants that can cause illness or spoilage. This involves maintaining clean equipment, using quality ingredients, controlling fermentation temperatures, and properly sanitizing all surfaces and tools. Monitoring pH and sanitation during brewing reduces the risk of contamination. Proper storage and handling also prevent spoilage and ensure the beer remains safe to drink. Following these practices, brewers produce safe, high-quality beer that meets health standards and protects consumers.
