Diatomite filter aid has been used to filter beer for a long time. It has been widely used in China since 1980s. So far, all large and medium-sized breweries in China have used this process.
The beer processed by diatomite is white, fine and durable, and the beer taste is more pure and light. It can make the finished beer less than 0.35 (EBC units) and reduce its wort loss and alcohol damage.
With the improvement of beer production technology, filtration technology, equipment and the quality of diatomite filter aid, the unit consumption per ton of wine of diatomite filter aid has decreased from more than 2kg 10 years ago to about 1.2kg.
