At his 30-year school reunion, Schulz[JD1] ( ) , Chief Editor at SPIEGEL, noticed just how differently people can age – despite sharing the same number of years on paper.

Part of the reason, he explains, lies at cellular level: ageing involves a set of biological processes known as the hallmarks of ageing – and some of these processes can be influenced.

Reducing sugar is one thing. Giving consumers a reason to actively choose your product is another.

Gøther Lars Souza Mathisen from Novonesis made the case for looking beyond reduction: if a product is meant to command a premium, consumers need to see a clear benefit – not simply the absence of something they want less of.

Fermented beverages bring together taste, microbiology and process control. Kombucha is a good example.

Its production depends on fermentation time, pH value, microorganisms and cold-chain management. Depending on fermentation time, the beverage can develop from sweet to increasingly sour, while esters, higher alcohols and fatty acids contribute to fruity and citrus-like notes.

What do you think: how much alcohol can kombucha contain and still be considered non-alcoholic?

A) 0,5 gram per litre
B) 2 grams per litre
C) 11 grams per litre

Let us know in the comments!

Innovation starts when we understand the process behind the symptom. Once we do, health benefits stop being a matter of belief and become a matter of science, evidence – and formulation.

A hacker attack doesn’t give any warning, so you need resilience.

Breweries are increasingly becoming targets of ransomware gangs. Their method: encrypt data, paralyze systems, and demand a ransom. Those who don’t pay risk having sensitive data leaked. Production outages lasting several days are no longer the exception.

💡 The good news: Those who prepare early on are much better equipped to weather a crisis. Isolated backups, clear role definitions, and regularly tested recovery processes—in the end, these are what make the difference between a few hours of downtime and weeks of paralysis.

Are functional benefits already part of your product development strategy?

According to Gøther Lars Souza Mathisen from Novonesis, 52 per cent of consumers see functional benefits as making soda seem healthier. In certain regions, around 50 per cent are also willing to pay more for products with such benefits.

The message for beverage producers is clear: functional benefits are becoming a relevant factor in consumer choice, product differentiation and pricing potential.

A hop cone a day keeps the doctor away?

B**r brewing is the primary use of hops. But if one focuses solely on that, one overlooks the versatility and uniqueness of this plant, whose phytotherapeutic properties run in the family: Hops belong to the cannabis family, whose healing properties have been utilized by many cultures and peoples since at least ancient times, says Dr. Christina Schönberger, BarthHaas.
