Product catalog summary
Overview
Zinsser Analytic has developed an automated liquid handling platform designed for high-throughput malt analysis. This platform facilitates processes such as malt extraction, filtration, and preparation for further analysis, including turbidimetry, flavor color, density/viscosity, dissolved nitrogen, beta-glucan, and fermentation.

Key Features
  • Precise dispensing of temperature-controlled water to malt samples.
  • Reproducible and reliable results with a customized software interface.
  • Gravimetric or volumetric aspiration and dispensing of solutions.
  • Magnetic stirring and retention during transportation of beakers.
  • Identification and documentation of the entire malt process.

Hardware Design
The hardware supports flexible use of up to four filtration racks and pipetting racks. It includes temperature-controlled basins, a magnetic stirrer, and a drying station.

Processes of Malt Analysis
  • Input: Up to two racks of 48 stainless steel beakers with malt samples.
  • Mashing Process: Involves dispensing temperature-controlled water, temperature monitoring, and extraction of malt/groats.
  • Filtration Process: Can be initiated separately, involves weighing, stirring, and filtering malt suspensions.
  • Pipetting Process: Utilizes standard and extra-large slurry pipetting tips for transferring filtrates.

Output
The platform can process over 200 malt samples in 24 hours using mashing, filtration, and pipetting processes.

Software Solution
The software is modular, allowing customization of processes using MS Excel® or the Worklist-Generator, executed with WinLissy® software. It supports communication with customer-specific databases or LIMS.
