The main objective of the project is to develop an innovative technology on the basis of an optimized low pressure facility with a cooler for processing organic hop and for producing hop water oils with improved hop oil content. Indeed, due to the end of the spirits monopoly, new possibilities have to be identified for continuing using available facilities and resources of the bavarian agricultural small and fruit distilleries and therefore ensure their economic survival. Moreover, the project is also supposed to increase the competitiveness of Bavarian hop farmers. All in all, the quality of hop oil shall be improved by avoiding as much as possible the contact with disturbances. The establishment of sustainable knowledge about the optimization of hop oils and the development of solutions for manufacturing hop water are at the core of the project. The end product quality of the hop oils shall reach a quality level never before attained and shall be then anchor into the structures.
