Hop oil from a subcritical CO2 extraction process
CO2 Extraction of Hops
Vitalis equipment enables some of the largest hop extractors in the world to produce the finest hop oils and resins on the market. By extracting with cold liquid CO2, these producers are able to preserve more of the valuable compounds they want, including alpha and beta acids and full hop flavors and aromas.
Plus, with Vitalis systems, they aren’t pulling unwanted compounds like fats, greatly simplifying any downstream processing. It all adds up to a lower overall cost of production for pure hop extracts brewers love.
