About the Conference

Perfect Fermentation is the first conference in Poland entirely dedicated to the technology, quality and future of non-alcoholic beers. The event brings together academia and industry, creating a platform for knowledge exchange, research presentations, and discussion of technological and market challenges within the NA beer segment.

The conference aims to provide a comprehensive overview of non-alcoholic beer production processes – from raw materials and fermentation control to dealcoholization technologies, microbiological stability, and sensory profile optimization.
With the rapid growth of the non-alcoholic beer market, the event serves as a professional platform for dialogue between researchers, brewing technologists, raw materials suppliers, and technology providers.
The programme addresses technological, microbiological, economic, and consumer-related aspects of NA beer production.

The conference is organized by Wolny Kraft Association and
The Faculty of Food Technology University of Agriculture in Kraków.
