ADoS – Additive Dosing System

ADoS is an additive dosing system for the recipe-based dosing of ingredients – directly into the main product stream . The system has a modular design , is adaptable in the number of dosing components, and is designed for stable, reproducible operation.


Application
ADoS is used to introduce malt extract , hop extract , flavorings , and colorings directly into the main product stream. Its compact design supports the flexible production of different products (e.g., brands/variants).


Typical dosing media

  • malt extract

  • Hop extract / Hop products

  • Flavorings / Flavorings

  • Dyes

  • Enzymes

  • Other additives depending on the recipe and process


Description / Operating principle
The dosage is administered directly into the main stream according to a pre-selected formula . The additives are added depending on the specific design:

  • from separate tanks via supply lines or

  • from smaller containers that are installed on the plant

Depending on the design, the containers can be optionally:

  • be heated

  • be rinsed with CO₂ or N₂

  • be equipped with agitators

Flow meters, dosing pumps, and pneumatic control valves continuously monitor and regulate the flow rates. This ensures precise and reproducible dosing – even with very small quantities.


Hygiene & Cleaning
ADoS is hygienically designed and fully CIP-compatible . Cleaning can be integrated into standardized CIP processes.


Highlights

  • High accuracy across different dosage amounts

  • Modular design, customizable (standard PLC )

  • Frame-mounted (skid) for easy installation and commissioning

  • Hygienic design and full CIP capability


Technical specifications (typical)

Main flow capacity: 1 – 150 m³/h

Dosing flow capacity: 1 – 5,000 l/h

Material: as required (1.4301/AISI 304, 1.4404/AISI 316L)


Options (depending on the version / project-specific)

  • Different levels of automation

  • Remote maintenance access

  • Inline measurement of e.g. alcohol, Brix, CO₂

  • Water degassing

  • Carbonization / Nitrogenation

  • pasteurization

  • Buffer tank

  • cooling
