Beer is one of the oldest beverages produced by humans through a process.
It involves an enzymatic fermentation step followed by extraction. The microbial alcoholic fermentation shapes the flavor and ensures its shelf life. Light microscopes are important monitoring tools in this process. The aim of microscopic analysis of liquids in breweries is to achieve an optimal and comprehensive representation of typical particles.

Transmitted Light Microscope for Brightfield, Darkfield, and Phase Contrast applications, with coded objective turret and light manager.

The coded objective turret automatically displays the correct scale in the camera image at all times.

During objective changes, the illumination intensity for the respective objective is automatically stored and loaded, unless the light manager is deactivated.
