Fermenter Status

Latest batch per fermenter. A batch is flagged at its endpoint — the last transfer stage present (F-5, beerwell, or F-5→beerwell), falling back to Final — if any byproduct breaches its limit.

Endpoint Ethanol Across Six Months

Every batch endpoint, coloured by feedstock. Breached points turn red once limits are set.

Thin-Slop Watch (Recycling Water)

Daily thin-slop lactic acid coloured by the running feedstock campaign, with a rolling median trend line; red triangles are readings beyond the axis, clamped — hover for the true value. The stepped trace below shows the recycled volume in m³ where recorded (breaks = days with no volume entry), on an aligned date axis. Thin-slop lactic runs naturally higher than batch levels and needs its own thresholds; volume determines its impact on the batch.

Byproducts vs Batch Time

Hours from first fermenter-line sample. Lot samples (ILT/FLT, often drawn on a different clock) and thin-slop are excluded from trajectories but shown in the rail and table. Overlay dashed.

Specific Gravity & pH

SG falling to 1.000 signals reaction completion. Values outside physical range are flagged in the table below.

Samples

Endpoint performance by grain — the comparison the plant runs campaigns on. Feedstock campaigns run in monthly blocks (Mar FCI Rice, Apr–Jul Maize-dominant, Aug Maize + Rice).

Endpoint Ethanol by Feedstock — Distribution

Box = interquartile range, line = median, whisker = 1.5×IQR span, red dots = outliers. Flagged rows excluded. Treat boxes with fewer than 5 batches (see table) as indicative only.

Endpoint Lactic Acid by Feedstock — Distribution

Set a lower and/or upper limit for any parameter at any stage — blank means no limit. Limits can be set for all feedstocks or overridden per feedstock (specific beats general). Everything recalculates instantly and is saved in this browser. Send us the exported JSON and it becomes the system's default limits.

Import Limits from JSON

One alert per (batch, stage, parameter) on first breach. BDL readings never trigger lower-bound alerts. In production these route to the plant's production manager and QC head via the app and WhatsApp.

Plant QC-lab alcohol vs Catalyst HPLC ethanol at batch endpoints, where both were recorded (the lab value is transcribed for only a minority of batches — itself a finding). Units are not defined in the source; a % v/v vs % w/v basis difference could explain part of the gap.

%

Agreement — Identity Plot

Each point is one batch endpoint. On the diagonal = the two methods agree; the shaded band is your tolerance. Points above the line: HPLC reads higher than the lab.

Divergence Over Time

Percentage difference (HPLC − Lab) per batch by date. The solid line is the mean bias; the band is your tolerance. A drifting cloud means calibration drift, not random noise.
