Immediately measure your DO and CO2 levels from your packaged product, or DO in your tanks before the packaging process.

Dissolved Oxygen (DO) Measurement for Beer

  • Optimize flavour – test across multiple product lines to see how DO varies
  • See how beer ages over time – test various ages of a single product line
  • Determine Total Package Oxygen using our TPO calculator
  • Stabilize flavour and increase shelf life by minimizing DO content – identify where Oxygen may be entering the process

CO2 Measurement

  • Test the carbonation of beer, the consistency of its head by measuring the CO2 content across multiple batches.
  • Test and optimize your brewing procedure to ensure a consistent quality of beer every time- using the CO2 measurement device

Customer Reviews

“We did get all the measurements we needed from the DO meter, and have implemented several very important QC protocols that resulted from the readings.  Prior to renting the unit, my hunch was that we were picking up excess O2 “upstream” from our packaging operations, and man did the meter prove that!  Way too much oxygen in our wort, and not enough purging of our brite tanks with CO2.  It’s hard to imagine trying to figure that out without the DO meter-what a great tool.  We made sure to blow it down very well, like you said, so it’ll be OK for ground transport.   Thanks for your support throughout the rental process-you made it very easy for us.  I hope the new year finds you well-thanks much.”

“As a new company investing in costly equipment and trying to meet your customer’s needs is a delicate balance. IC Controls service and support is fantastic and was able to work with our specific needs. The whole process from start to finish was very efficient and was able to increase our customer trust and increase our business credibility without the expensive overhead.  The equipment was in perfect working condition and their instructions and videos were all the resources we needed to start right out of the box. “

“IC Controls’ dissolved oxygen rental system for beer provides a convenient method of measuring DO and TPO. It is neat to be able to see the effect of package age for the same product as well as the differences between products. Overall, I am stoked that we can verify quality throughout the brewing process without having to invest in the equipment or maintain it!“
