Fermentation Consultant for Scalable Beverage Production
HI — I’M THE FERMENTATION CONSULTANT.
Nearly 20 years ago, Guillermo Alvarez Schulenburg began exploring the science behind a great pint — and the role fermentation plays in creating flavour.
Today, he works with breweries and beverage brands to design, optimise, and scale production systems, supporting businesses from early-stage development through to industrial manufacturing.
His experience spans the design, development, and optimisation of fermentation and production systems, including complex process troubleshooting and delivering scalable, retail-ready products.
His focus is clear: building production systems that are consistent, scalable, and commercially viable.
