The Raible‐Test was presented in 1990 as a simple new method for evaluating the filtration characteristics of beer. Following a brief historical review of beer filtration, different methods designed to predict the filterability are compared with the new test. The specific filtrate volume Fspec. (hl/m 2 .h) correlates significantly with the mean pressure increase in commercial filtrations in order to predict the filterability and provides the brewer with a definitive indication of how the beer will behave in filtration.
