Brands

Pegas

Pegas is an apparatus for fast foam-free dispensing of foamy beverages (beer and others). It is installed in retail outlets. Its operation principle is based on the back pressure: the bottle is filled with a gas, then the beer squeezes it out of the container. Beer is fed into the bottle under pressure, and the back pressure in the bottle pushes and extinguishes the foam. This method had already been followed in industrial production, however, the company patented seven devices that operate on the basis of back pressure. [2]

Counterfeiting devices

The company's devices were often tampered with by unscrupulous manufacturers from China. According to Sergei Buchik, he lost 15% of sales due to Chinese counterfeits in 2010. [2]

MilkBox

MilkBoxes are milk vending machines disseminated in Novisibirsk, Novosibirsk Oblast and Yekaterinburg (as of 2016). [3]

Export

The company exports its products to Europe, CIS, China, North and South America. [4]

Beer head Frothy foam on top of beer

Beer head, is the frothy foam on top of beer which is produced by bubbles of gas, predominantly carbon dioxide, rising to the surface. The elements that produce the head are wort protein, yeast and hop residue. The carbon dioxide that forms the bubbles in the head is produced during fermentation. The carbonation can occur before or after bottling the beer. If the beer continues fermenting in the bottle, then it naturally carbonates and the head is formed upon opening and/or pouring the beer. If the beer is pasteurized or filtered then the beer must be force carbonated using pressurized gas.
