So u don't pasteurize beer I guess. Even commercially. They actually filter the crap out of it! They force it through screens and filters. There's actually a website that sells them for home brewers! You would have to keg it to carbonate but especially if u brew for competition, for 100$ that's pretty good!

I have heard of a some what dangerous method..not sure if it works but if you attempt wear goggles and gloves...It involves taking your finished beer in bottles and heating water to 140*F and putting your bottles in the water and holding the temp for 15-20 mins and allowing to cool naturally..Can cause bottles to explode so be careful..cheers
Close. That's how it is described in my link. You heat the water to 190*F, then put the bottles in. If you put the bottles in first, it will create air pockets under the bottles and cause them to blow up or something. I did it with my cider and it worked well, but we did have a couple tops blow off, and one bottle explode. I had my SS top on my kettle though, so no harm, no foul. The bottles that had issues were all Anchor Steam bottles, which I had heard of people having various issues with before, so they may have just not been well capped. I will be doing it again.
How does one pasteurize homebrew? This doesn't effect flavor has anyone done it?
