Scientists are improving beer - by having mini robots swim around in it.
Researchers believe so-called "BeerBots" can speed up the brewing process.
Dr Martin Pumera and her colleagues at the Brno University of Technology, Czech Republic, wanted to develop a self-propelled bot to both make fermentation proceed faster and simplify the separation of yeast from the final beer.
Reporting in ACS Nano, the team shows that magnetic packages of yeast can make the fermentation phase go faster and cut out the need to filter the beverage.
The two-millimetre-wide robots are made of iron oxide and contain yeast to supercharge the fermentation process.
When they have finished their mission of swimming around in the fermenting container, they can be removed with a magnet, avoiding having to add a filtering process.
