In

Established in 1872, the Siebel Institute has a long history in
brewing education and research, making it one of the world’s most
respected brewing schools and analytical laboratories. Siebel

yeast culture maintenance, DNA fingerprinting, beer evaluation &
analysis, recipe formulation, consulting and contract research. With
industry-leading laboratory and research facilities staffed by
highly qualified personnel, Siebel Institute works to continually
add new services that meet the needs of brewers of every size.
In education, Siebel Institute continues its role as a world
leader in professional training services for the brewing industry.
With campuses in Chicago & Montreal, Siebel Institute offers courses
that cover topics ranging from homebrewing to the industry’s most
advanced brewing microbiology program. The Siebel Institute also
partners with Doemens Academy of Germany to offer courses under the
World Brewing Academy (WBA) name, offering campus-based courses in

AB Vickers
In
early 2001 Lallemand acquired AB Vickers, one the world's leading
organisations in the production and marketing of isinglass finings.
Isinglass finings, fish derived collagen, are extremely effective in
clarifying beer after fermentation. Many leading brewing companies
use isinglass extensively throughout the world. Copper finings,
another of Vickers specialities, are alginate derived and are used
to aid hot and cold break in the copper or kettle. Vickers has an
unrivalled experience and reputation in the visual stabilisation of
beer.
