“I know several craft beers.”

Qin Dong just waved his hand to let Zhong Xinghuo sit down, then ignored Zhao Shilin and sat on the sofa.

Before the German sat down, he sat down first, without even the minimum etiquette. Zhao Shilin was already disgusted with this translator.

"You are like dry beer. This beer has a high fermentation degree, low residual sugar, high carbon dioxide content, dry taste and strong mouth-killing power..."

"Ice beer, cool the beer to freezing point, so that tiny ice crystals appear in the beer," Qin Dong gestured with his fingers, "and then filtered and filtered out the ice crystals..."

"Wheat beer, wheat slurry is the main raw material, beer brewed by fermentation above or fermentation below... Low alcohol beer, alcohol content is less than 2.5%, alcohol content is less than 0.5% to be alcohol-free beer... Green beer, natural spirulina extract is added to the beer, rich in amino acids and trace elements, and the beer is green..."

Oh, counting so many beers in one breath, this translation has an understanding of the beer industry, so Zhao Shilin's face eased.

"There are also white beer. White beer uses two different yeasts for secondary fermentation in the production process. During the second fermentation process, other flavor substances, such as ester aroma substances, and the final finished wine is not filtered. The finished wine contains a lot of protein and yeast. Therefore, from the appearance, the finished wine is very turbid and appears in a white and emulsion state..."

"This is the season," Qin Dong looked at the snow on the air conditioner outside the house, "It's better to drink some warm beer..."

Zhao Shilin really didn't hear about the last beer, and there was no saying that warm beer in this era.

"It is to add ginger juice or wolfberry to the fermentation, which can prevent colds and stomach cold..." Qin Dong laughed.

Oh, it seemed that the audience was centered on him, and Zhao Shilin's appreciation just now disappeared, "Okay, your information may be seen from foreign books, but as a translator, you still seem to be qualified." He added, "You know beer."

Zhong Xinghuo laughed secretly. Can he not understand beer? He is Mr. Mei’s closed disciple. Light and dry beer and corn beer are his masterpieces, but he cannot introduce Qin Dong. He is the general manager of Rong Beer. Now that he has his own industry, this is a taboo.

What's more, the joint venture between Shicheng Beer was originally a secret visit to Chen Cang and Li Dai Tao Zou.

"Okay, let's start." He motioned for Zhao Shilin.

Zhao Shilin pulled out his bag and took out a bag of malt from the bag. He looked at the German Leo and signaled to Qin Dong to translate, "If you want to brew whole-mill beer, you must solve the problem of high acidity and dark color of wort. Since pure malt brewing is made, the total nitrogen content in the wort should be higher than that of wort with auxiliary materials. Therefore, when choosing the raw malt for brewing, the color of the malt should be 3.5ebc-4.0ebc, and the acidity of the malt is below 14ml/l. It is best to use Australian malt with a library value of 39%-40%..."

"You translate it for him..." Seeing Qin Dong pick up the malt and watch it himself, Zhao Shilin urged.

"Mr. Leo said that the quality of raw malt is very important. In addition, the protein content must be low. Can your malt meet the conditions you just mentioned?" Qin Dong said in a "translation".

Zhao Shilin smiled confidently, and he glanced at Zhong Xinghuo, "Tell Mr. Leo that you can definitely meet the standards I just mentioned."

Qin Dong also looked at this senior with admiration, but Zhao Shilin immediately said, "We happened to use Australian malt, but yeast is the basis for beer fermentation. The quality of beer flavor depends largely on the type and quality of the bacteria. Whole malt beer should have a flavor that is generally acceptable to us Chinese people..."

"Don't worry about this," Qin Dong looked at Zhong Xinghuo and smiled. "A German yeast strain can reach Qinwan today. Let's call him Shicheng strain for the time being. Use this strain to ferment, the flavor is pure, and it also has the characteristics of light and refreshing beer..."

"Now, there is no problem with the raw materials and bacteria. The rest is the process." Zhao Shilin was very happy. He glanced at the Germans. This was the purpose of the joint venture, which was to use advanced foreign technology.

But this young man once again overshadowed the host, which made him very unhappy.

If there were other translations now, he would let him leave immediately.

"There is also the control of acidity during the saccharification process," Zhao Shilin frowned, "This is the most core part of the process."

Since it is the most core part, will the Germans transfer the technology to China? He heard that when the contract was signed, the Germans agreed to transfer it through a production license. What is the way to transfer the production license? He was unsure of what it was.

Leo spread his hands and gestured and spoke a large string of German.

"Mr. Leo said that the acidity of beer mainly comes from three aspects. First, the acidic substances contained in the malt are dissolved during the malt manufacturing process, which accounts for 30%-40% of the acidity of beer. Second, the various organic acids produced by yeast metabolism during the fermentation process. Third, the acids added to regulate ph during the saccharification process, such as phosphoric acid and lactic acid, etc...."

Zhao Shilin's emotions changed again and again. Qin Dong accurately said various industrial beer terms, and the communication was very smooth, which made him very happy.

"Young man is easy to learn," he couldn't help but pat Qin Dong on the shoulder happily, "Do it well."

Sun Huifang was stunned to see that this was the director of a large factory with thousands of people!

Zhong Xinghuo quickly smoothed out the situation and said, "Okay, when the raw materials are available and the principle is clear, we will start working."

...

The most important thing about whole-marinated beer is the saccharification process, with the ingredients ratio of 7,500 kilograms of malt and 30 kilograms of hops.

Zhao Shilin personally stayed in the sugar-making workshop. Due to concerns that Qin Dong is the actual controller of the factory, Zhong Xinghuo made the excuse that new technology also needs to be kept confidential. None of the leadership teams in the factory came. These people had met Qin Dong, and he didn't want them to know the inside story of the joint venture.

"What's going on? Aren't the Germans very punctual?" Zhao Shilin looked at his watch and there was no Germans outside.

"Here, here we are." Sun Huifang, who had been following the left and right, pointed at the door, and Qin Dong, wearing a white cotton mask, walked in with great strides.

"Where is Mr. Leo?" Zhao Shilin also rushed forward. He did not look at Qin Dong, but looked behind Qin Dong, but there was no foreigner.

"Mr. Leo..." Through these days' contact, Leo's technical literacy is still good, but it is limited to beer workshops, but this does not prevent him from being a good actor. In front of Zhao Shilin, he played the role of engineer to the fullest, "Mr. Leo is sick."

"What disease? Is it important? Why is it sick at this time?" Zhao Shilin immediately asked a series of questions.

Qin Dong was a little annoyed. Leo had the same problem as Zhong Xinghuo a few days ago.

Seeing Sun Huifang invite Zhong Xinghuo over, Zhao Shilin became even more anxious. A young translator, he asked sternly, "What's wrong with Mr. Leo?"

"He has acute gastroenteritis..." Is this karma? Qin Dong didn't know. Anyway, he had to go on stage and perform in person today. "He can't come anymore. So, today, I will be responsible for the saccharification part of the process."
