Let Every Drop of Wort Be The Starting Point for High-quality Beer

The Crucial Role of the Mashing System in Beer Brewing

In the beer brewing process, the mashing stage determines the final beer's alcohol content, flavor, color, and body.

The performance of the mashing system directly affects enzyme activity, temperature profile, wort yield, and final fermentation results.

The core tasks of mashing are:

Activating enzymatic reactions to convert starch into fermentable sugars;

Separating the wort from the afterburner to obtain a clear, pure sugar solution;

Providing a stable sugar source for the boiling and fermentation stages.

Structure of a Modern Beer Mashing System

A complete modern mashing system typically includes the following main equipment:

Malt Mill: Grinds the malt to the appropriate particle size, ensuring starch exposure without affecting filtration.

Double-roller or four-roller structure

Adjustable speed, uniform grinding

Seamless integration with the conveyor system

Mash Tun: Used to mix malt with hot water, completing starch conversion through stepwise heating.

Made of 304/316L stainless steel

Internal agitator design ensures uniform temperature

Steam or electric heating system

Lauter Tun: Separates the wort from the afterburner, maintaining clarity and wort yield.

Special wedge-shaped sieve structure

Automatic lifting agitator arm

CIP automatic cleaning system

Kettle: Used for wort boiling and hop addition.

Steam jacket heating for high heat transfer efficiency

Overflow prevention design

Optional steam condensation recovery system

Whirlpool Tank: Centrifuges solid impurities in wort.

Precision curved bottom design

Centrifugal vortex guide structure

Effective cleaning (no dead angles)

Heat Exchanger: Rapidly cools wort to fermentation temperature.

Plate heat exchanger design

Energy recovery system

Easy to disassemble and clean, simple maintenance

Technical Advantages of the Intelligent Saccharification System

1. High-Efficiency Conversion

Precise temperature control, supporting multi-stage programmed heating (enzymatic temperature range accurate to ±0.3°C)

Conversion rate increased by 10%-15%, resulting in higher juice yield

2. Energy Saving and Environmental Protection

Heat recovery system can reuse wastewater hot water

Steam recovery device reduces energy consumption

Insulation layer design reduces heat loss
