“We started off about 12 years ago looking at ways to remove micro algae from large volumes of 3cultures.”

“Ready?” – “Yup.”

Apparently, beer has been a great sample to test. Local breweries across the state, including Ex Novo in Corrales, have partnered with the labs to test this tech.

“It’s not 4intense, it’s not loud, and it doesn’t use a lot of energy the same way like a 5centrifuge would.”

Founder of Ex Novo Brewing, Joel Gregory, says a standard beer centrifuge costs upward of $150,000. But this tech is like nothing he’s ever heard of. The tech Los Alamos is developing is something Gregory says could go a long way for breweries everywhere.

“It’d save us a lot of time and labor and the quality of beer would improve which are all great things.”

“When somebody opens a bottle of beer or a can of beer, it’s going to have that quality that the brewers really intend.”

Gregory hopes the tech will be ready soon so that everyone in New Mexico can enjoy a 6crisper, cleaner, better beer with a 7quality the drinker will 8notice.

“We’re super excited to see what it does, and yeah, hopefully it helps.”
