PIKA FastOrange® B Ready to use Tubes – 24 Pack: PI-2036-14

Brewery Microbial Testing Rapid detection of beer spoilage organisms – no prep required.

Rapid detection of lactic acid and anaerobic beer spoilers.

The PIKA FastOrange® B Ready-to-Use Tubes (24 Pack) are designed to detect the most common and harmful beer-spoiling bacteria across all stages of the brewing process — from yeast slurry to finished product.

These tubes contain a concentrated colour-changing broth that reacts to a wide range of spoilage organisms, including:
  • Lactic acid bacteria: Lactobacillus and Pediococcus
  • Anaerobic bacteria: Pectinatus and Megasphaera

A positive result is clearly indicated by a color change of the broth from violet to yellow, allowing for quick, visual confirmation of contamination.

Why Choose FastOrange®?

Early detection of beer spoilage organisms helps reduce the risk of:

  • Over-carbonation

  • Hazy or off-flavoured beer

  • Costly product recalls

  • Equipment recontamination

FastOrange® B helps you detect issues before they leave the brewery.

 

Key Features:

  • Detects Lactic Acid & Anaerobic Bacteria
    Covers a broad spectrum of spoilage organisms including Lactobacillus, Pediococcus, Pectinatus, and Megasphaera – the most common contaminants in beer production.
  • Color-Changing Broth

  • Ready-to-Use Convenience
