Hopsteiner – Salvo + SalvoPlus

Bitterless Aroma extracts

When looking at ways to improve aroma intensity, Salvo® and SalvoPlus® are the two best choices. Salvo® delivers impactful variety-specific flavor and aroma as a fractionated form of CO2 hop extract. In both products, α-acids have been removed to explicitly enhance aroma with little to no added bitterness. Salvo® is best used as a late kettle/whirlpool addition to partially or completely replace leaf or pellet hops. SalvoPlus® can be added at any time during the brewing process, so also for dry hopping.

Since Salvo® and SalvoPlus® contain no vegetative matter, both products will minimize beer losses significantly.

Can I use SalvoPlus in any stage of the brewing process?

Yes, SalvoPlus is designed to be used at any point of the brewing process, for an application in the whirlpool or in dry hopping at an early phase of fermentation.

What makes SalvoPlus different from traditional hops?

SalvoPlus offers a concentrated, pure and liquid form of extracted hop flavor that allows precise control of the flavor profile. The ease of handling and dosing, together with homogenous and efficient distribution in wort or beer, make SalvoPlus the best alternative to traditional hopping.

How much beer do I save if SalvoPlus is used instead of pellets?

This strongly depends on the hopping recipe and the type of conventional hop product that refers to the comparison. In any case, there’s a significant improvement when it comes to cost efficient brewing that is state of the art. Besides reduced wort a/o beer losses, also shipping costs and storage volume are dramatically reduced. Waste material from the addition of hop pellets or leaf hops does not occur anymore, if SalvoPlus is used exclusively. In addition to that, cleaning is far easier and much more cost effective.

Can I use SalvoPlus in non-alcoholic beers?

Absolutely, SalvoPlus can be used in a variety of beverages, including non-alcoholic beers to achieve a hoppy flavor. The ideal application depends on the de-alcoholization technique applied. Please don’t hesitate to contact us to find the best solution for your NAB.

Does the hop creep effect occur with SalvoPlus in dry hopping?

There is no risk for hop creep and consequently no alcohol to be formed after dosing SalvoPlus as this product does neither contain carbohydrates nor active enzymes derived from hops.

How do I find the right dosage for my beer?

The correct dosage depends on several factors, including the desired flavor profile and the type of beer. We provide information of linalool-based dosage for whirlpool applications and oil-based information for dry hopping as a starting point. Experimentation in small batches, especially with dry hopping, is recommended to determine the ideal flavor for your specific beer.
