The aim of this research is to investigate the possibility of applying a laser distance meter (LDM) as a complementary measurement method to image analysis during beer foam stability monitoring. The basic optical property of foam, i.e., its high reflectivity, is the main reason for using LDM. LDM measurements provide relatively precise information on foam height, even in the presence of lacing, and provide information as to when foam is no longer visible on the surface of the beer. Sixteen different commercially available lager beers were subjected to analysis. A camera and LDM display recorded the foam behavior; the LDM display which was placed close to the monitored beer glass. Measurements obtained by the image analysis of videos provided by the visual camera were comparable to those obtained independently by LDM. However, due to lacing, image analysis could not accurately detect foam disappearance. On the other hand, LDM measurements accurately detected the moment of foam disappearance since the measurements would have significantly higher values due to multiple reflections in the glass.

Industrial unhopped worts produced from different batches of commercial malt were taken to analyse the contents of compounds related to beer foam stability, such as polypeptides, polyphenols, and β-glucan. Kolbach index of malts was also determined. Foam stability of beers produced from these wort batches was measured and the relationship between the foam stability and malt components was sought. The findings showed that the great variation in total and hydrophobic polypeptides as well as β-glucan contents among malt batches did not substantially influence the beer foam stability. None of the studied malt parameters correlated highly with the foam stability. The results showed that it is difficult to predict the foam performance relying on the polypeptides, β-glucan, or polyphenol contents in malt. It seems that the scope for the beer foam stability improvement by the malt selection is not considerable.
