The brewhouse – Part 1
Many brewers regard the brewhouse as the “heart” of a brewery, some even refer to it affectionately as the “living room”. There is certainly some truth in this. As the brewhouse is a particularly complex section, it merits two articles in the context of this series as it is hardly feasible to describe all brewhouse processes in one article. In this first part, brewhouse operations up to and including wort preparation are covered. As usual, a glossary explains some of the technical terms and there is also the usual section with calculations. The results are published in the online forum at www.brauweltinternational.com – “Service/Forum”.
