Craft Brewery Lab Services

Successful fermentation is essential to brewing the highest quality beer, which is why Inland Island provides expertise in fermentation and brewing sciences. Inland Island gives brewers the opportunity to improve their confidence in every brew by offering comprehensive testing (plating, PCR, cell counts and viability) and education on best practices for yeast management.

Education

We spend all day thinking about fermentation and how yeast plays an integral role in the brewing process. We take pride in offering the highest pitch rate in the industry with best-in-class quality control policies. We also want to educate our customers on best practices for pitching our yeast, cell counting procedures, and ensuring your yeast will be viable for a re-pitch.

Testing Beer & Brewery

Every brewer wants to ensure that their customers taste their beer in peak condition. Shelf life and stability can be major concerns, but Inland Island can help! Send us a sample of your beer and we will test to make sure that it is free of contaminants. We will provide you with the genus of any contaminants and help locate how contaminants got into the final product.

Need answers now?!! Inland Island can run your samples on PCR and get same day results. Our PCR can test for Brettanomyces/Dekkera species: B. bruxellensis, B. anomala, B. naardenensis, & B. custersiana. We can also test for Saccharomyces diastaticus which has been the cause of many major recalls over the past year. Trust your quality control to the experts with the most up to date methods!
