Sensory Training Kits

Since their introduction in 2009, the Siebel Institute Sensory Training Kits have become the industry standard for accuracy, affordability and ease of use, and now we have redesigned the Siebel Institute sensory product line-up to offer new benefits including:

  • Improved product longevity
  • Pre-measured ampoules to add to either one litre or one standard bottle of beer
  • Ability to choose your own selection of flavour standards
The standards are shipped in ready-to-use liquid form, making them as easy to use as possible. Just open the small vial of the sensory standard, pour it into a measuring cup and add the correct volume of a light, neutral beer, and you are ready to sample! Each kit is designed to help tasters build their skills towards under­ standing beer flavour at a truly professional level. While breweries with established tasting panel structures will find this kit valuable, it can also be used for “taster calibration” by others with an interest in beer including:
  • Breweries training new & existing staff to spot beer defects more effectively
  • Brewers guilds looking to add value to their regularly-scheduled meetings
  • Homebrew groups and beer judges looking to sharpen their judging and flavour recognition skills
  • Distributors, wholesalers and agents who need to be able to “talk the talk” about beer attributes with beer speciality retailers

Siebel Institute kits come complete with instructions for preparing beer samples and details on the compounds included with each kit.
