Abstract
A procedure is presented for the routine analysis of organic beer components. Beer is extracted with carbon disulphide to yield a concentrate which is submitted to a single quantitative dual-column gas chromatographic analysis. A satisfactory overall order of reproducibility, sensitivity and speed is achieved under the conditions described. At least 15 clearly-resolved peaks are obtained representing alcohols, esters and acids. The method is illustrated by the determination of capric acid, caprylic acid and β-phenylethanol in eight commercial bottled lagers.
