One of the critical control points in the brewing process is the monitoring of the progress of the fermentation stage. Fermentation takes place in a tank, where temperature and pressure are controlled by a computer program. As fermentation proceeds, the extract (sugar) value decreases. Since there is a correlation between the decrease in the extract value and the specific gravity (density) of the wort (the liquid mixture that is fermented to make beer), the degree of fermentation can be known by measuring the specific gravity.
