National Beer

Dean Mei is the one who has the say. The second week after Qin Dong returned to Qinwan, Mei Yuxiu brought eleven professors and associate professors from the Institute of Light Industry to Qinwan, although he did not intend to disturb the city In the district, the city and district were still alarmed.

Liang Yongsheng, Qi Cheng, Wang Congjun, Chen Shifa, Zhou Fenghe and other people personally greeted him at the train station. Mei Yuxiu breathed the air of Qinwan, listening to Qinwan’s accent, her mood was very comfortable, "Come, let me introduce a bit……"

"Xiao Qin," after introducing the teachers in the courtyard one by one, he waved to Qin Dong who was standing behind the leader, "Come here, you know the leaders and teachers in the courtyard," he smiled and turned his head to look at one The tall young man said, "This is Dong Qingkun, and it is also your second senior brother."

"Hello." Qin Dong stretched out his hands enthusiastically. Mei Yuxiu's students are all over the world, but he really wants him to admit that they are his disciples in total.

He knew this Dong Qingkun. He was originally a lecturer at the Shanhai Provincial Institute of Light Industry. He was sent by Mei Yuxiu to the Dummings Beer Academy in Germany to study. He also worked at the National Institute of Food and Fermentation for a period of time. Up.

Dong Qingkun looked at Qin Dong and enthusiastically shook Qin Dong's hands, "I heard the teacher talk about you a long time ago, and I am glad to meet you."

Su Yubo followed to Qinwan, and her eyes were bright when she saw the two shaking hands.

Dong Qingkun is tall and handsome, with the style of Wang Jiawei for men's volleyball team. Qin Dong is also masculine and heroic. When the two stand together, Mei Lao has a look of relief in his eyes. They also successfully attracted the people present.

When everyone got on the bus, Qin Dong sat beside Mei Yuxiu, introducing him to the new railway station and the newly built hospital building...

Times are changing dramatically, cities are developing, there are more tower cranes, more styles of people's clothes, and even the hairstyles of people on the street are becoming more fashionable.

"Lao Mei, welcome." In front of the Ocean Hotel, Mayor Guo Peng greeted him personally. Mei Yuxiu was also an old leader of the city and was also influential in the Ministry of Light Industry. The group smiled and walked into the meeting room.

"Qin Dong." On this occasion, Mei Yuxiu still did not forget to recommend her closed disciple.

"Xiao Qin, I know, he knows beer!" Mayor Guo accurately said Qin Dong's name, but he immediately laughed again, "Last year, you promised me to solve the problem of beer horse urine. Now that the factory directors are all appointed, this problem has not been solved yet."

The task assigned by the leader has not received any response so far. Liang Yongsheng, Qi Cheng and others are all looking at Qin Dong, while Mei Yuxiu also looks at his disciples with concern.

"Mayor Guo, the problem of horse urine smell is actually being solved. It can be said that it has been solved halfway." Qin Dong said loudly.

"Oh," Mayor Guo and Mei Yuxiu looked at each other, both of them were very interested. "Tell me."

Diacetyl is an important by-product in the fermentation process of beer, which causes the "horse urine taste" of beer.

Everyone looked at Qin Dong again. Dong Qingkun and Su Yubo were also looking at Qin Dong. This is a difficult problem. Just like Goldbach’s conjecture in mathematics, to remove the smell of horse urine, not only beer equipment is needed, but also improvements or changes are needed. The brewing process of beer is a large systematic project that requires the participation of a group of scientific researchers, rather than a single person.

Moreover, this is a common problem in most breweries across the country. If it is easy to solve, it will be solved soon?

Chen Shifa had an expression of contentment. Last year, he also assigned Qin Dong a task to develop a new beer. Qin Dong answered him in the same way, half done.

"Mayor Guo, our Rong Beer is preparing to adopt a brand-new production process and technology to produce a light and refreshing beer."

Oh, Guo Peng is very interested. It is light and refreshing, which means it can remove the smell of horse urine in beer.

"One is to use advanced saccharification technology, using enzymatic saccharification to replace the traditional boiling saccharification method, and the other is to use a new type of diatomaceous earth filter when filtering. At present, this technology and equipment have been adopted in our Rong Beer."

"You speak, you continue." Mayor Guo looked at Qin Dong, "What to do next?"

"The first to adopt the new open-air fermentation process, and the first to use the computer to control the whole process of beer production, through the microcomputer to measure the raw materials, wort, and sake, so that the production process, technology, and physical and chemical indicators of Rong Beer have reached the advanced level of the domestic industry..."

Mayor Guo was very happy. "You mean that with advanced equipment and advanced technology, new beer without horse urine can be produced? Xiao Qin, why do you want to produce light and refreshing beer?"

"Now, the best-selling beer in the domestic market is the mellow beer, but there has been a trend in the global market that light and refreshing beer is being accepted and recognized by more and more consumers."

"We don't make beer with too high a bitterness value, but we have to adapt to the tastes of the people. We make wine for the people. We make what kind of wine the people drink..."

The words made the Mayor Guo, Qi Cheng, Liang Yongsheng and others secretly nod their heads.

Elder Mei was also very pleased, Su Yubo's eyes were bright, staring at Qin Dong unblinking.

Mei Yuxiu once said that Qin Dong is a rare brewer in a century. Dong Qingkun still disagrees. Looking at it today, I don't know if I don't know, it seems that the teacher's closed disciple still has a few brushes.

Wasn't he a bottle maker before?He was even more curious about Qin Dong.

"Okay," Guo Peng said, "There are so many of you and your teachers at the scene, and you know beer yourself. I hope you can develop a new type of beer as soon as possible. How about it? By the end of the year, can Mei Lao and I drink your new type of beer? ?"

"Yes," Qin Dong replied loudly.

...

After a simple and warm welcome, Liang Yongsheng sent the letter of appointment to the teachers of Shanhai Provincial College on behalf of the district, "Go, and take a look at your factory." After solemnly pulling the letter of appointment, Mei Yuxiu only said a word.

At the second branch of Rongbi, the installation and commissioning of the equipment in the factory is almost over. Walking in the clean and tidy factory area, Mei Yuxiu is even more pleased to see busy workers and the roar of machines. He insists on insisting regardless of his age. Take a walk in the factory.

"How about it, do you have the intention to help Xiao Qin?" Mei Yuxiu stopped suddenly.

"You can try." Dong Qingkun was very conceited.

"Okay," Mei Yuxiu looked at the saccharification building not far away, "you two, tell me what is the lifeblood of the brewery?"

"yeast."

"Of course it's yeast."

Qin Dong and Dong Qingkun said in unison.

"Well, beer production itself is a process of using yeast to ferment." Mei Yuxiu nodded, and he also looked at the teachers in these colleges. "Qin Dong didn't mention yeast just now, only using high-quality yeast strains. After optimization, the strains with high fermentation degree can be obtained to produce light and refreshing beer."

"Well, I'll leave it here today. You two, one is an associate professor and the other is a factory director. If anyone can develop a new type of beer first..."

Everyone looked at Mei Yuxiu, and the smile on Dong Qingkun's face receded. He knew that Mei Yuxiu had something to say.

"You two are working at the same time, whoever can solve it, who will help me write the "Guide to the Beer Industry"."

Oh, the teachers of the academy present immediately showed incredible expressions.

As a leader in the academic world, this must be the masterpiece of Mei Yuxiu's beer industry. If anyone writes together, one will gain fame and fortune, and the other will get all his knowledge and experience. The beer production cannot be reflected in the book. Technology and experience.

Dong Qingkun and Qin Dong both looked at each other, Qin Dong slowly stretched out his hand, Dong Qingkun also stretched out his hand, and both hands were firmly held together again.
