# Fermentation Activity (PLAATO Pro): The Speedometer for Your Fermentation Process

## Accurately monitor the rate of your fermentation with Fermentation Activity.

You spoke and we listened. Fermentation Activity is a new feature developed to simplify fermentation monitoring for PLAATO Pro users. It is available on both the web and mobile app.

**What is Fermentation Activity?**

Fermentation Activity is a single number that represents the current state of fermentation by measuring the rate of decline in gravity.

It is displayed as either:

- °P/h (Plato per hour)
- mSG/h (milli specific gravity per hour)

### **With the new Fermentation Activity feature, you can:**

- **Easily identify the start of your fermentation**

Instantly detect issues with your batch due to unhealthy yeast, insufficient yeast pitch or temperature fluctuations, allowing you to address problems and save time and resources.

- **Seamlessly determine the end of fermentation**

Pinpoint optimal times for cold crashing and diacetyl rest to enhance tank turnover and increase production capacity.

- **Evaluate your batches for optimal yeast performance**

Comparing Fermentation Activity across batches offers valuable insights into the performance and health of yeast across generations and types, empowering you to refine your processes and achieve consistent results.

**How to access Fermentation Activity on Plaato WebApp and MobileApp**

1. Launch your Plaato Pro App on web or mobile
2. Click on ***Batches*** and select a relevant batch
3. OR Click on ***Devices*** and enter through to sensor data
4. Fermentation Activity is displayed underneath the density readings
