AI and Hyperspectral Imaging based Non-Destructive inspection for Advancing Peat Use Efficiency in Whisky Production: A Feasibility Study
1 Oct 2023 to 31 Mar 2024
This collaborative project between The Scotch Whisky Research Institute (SWRI) and Robert Gordon University (RGU) aims to revolutionize peat analysis in the whisky industry using Artificial Intelligence (AI) and hyperspectral imaging techniques. By leveraging SWRI's expertise in whisky production and RGU's AI and hyperspectral imaging capabilities, we wil...
EPH Elimination from Malting Barley for Scotch Whisky Production
1 Oct 2017 to 31 Jul 2018
In the food and drink industry ethyl carbamate is a strictly regulated compound. To ensure minimal levels are produced during whisky distillation, only EPH non-producing barley varieties are recommended to the industry, EPH being the precursor for ethyl carbamate. The James Hutton Institute (JHI) in Dundee and the Scotch Whisky Research Institute (SWRI) i...
Novel low viscosity wheats for distilling
1 Mar 2016 to 31 Mar 2019
A new collaboration beween industry and academics has been funded which aims to utilise a novel non- GM approach to improve a major UK crop. The project, which involves Rothamsted Research and two industrial partners, The Scotch Whisky Research Institute and Limagrain UK, will run from 2015-2018. A successful outcome will demonstrate the potential to grea...
To develop sustainable approaches to improve grain quality and help end users of soft wheat to mitigate challenges in downstream processing
1 Aug 2015 to 31 Jul 2018
Users of soft wheat have identified variation in quality to be a major root cause of challenges encountered in downstream processing. These challenges are currently managed reactively, and are exacerbated by a fundamental lack of understanding in terms of defining the principal quality characteristics of soft wheat for a given process. This project will a...
Innovative Warehouse Design for the Efficient Maturation of Scotch Whisky (MATIN)
1 Mar 2013 to 31 Aug 2015
Scotch whisky casks lose 2% of their alcohol content each year through evaporation. This represents a financial loss and an increased environmental pressure through larger raw material and water demand. However, these losses are an essential part of maturation as the whisky interacts with cask wood and the Scottish environment. Recent research has shown t...
Authentication Scheme for Novel and Premium British Food and Drink (Authentick)
1 Mar 2012 to 31 Aug 2014
This project will deliver an authentication scheme to promote and protect British food and drink in National and International Markets. Food fraud affects UK brands, retailers and industry reputations leading to a loss of revenue and potential food safety issues. Focusing on a range of key food and beverages this project brings together leading industry e...
