This presentation was made on the occasion of the presentation of the MBAA Award of Merit to Karl Siebert. He reviewed some of the research he was involved in during more than 40 years of brewing-related work. This included: demonstrations that disc centrifuges damage yeast by chipping off pieces of cell wall and that these inhibit clarification and filterability, the mechanism of protein-polyphenol haze formation, the manner of operation of silica and PVPP chillproofing, visual perception of turbidity, the mechanism of acid astringency, and the nature of the stimulation of fermentation by trub and other particles.
