Lauter tun vs. mash filter – a comparison – Part 1

For many decades, two lautering systems, the lauter tun and the mash filter, have prevailed worldwide as state-of-the-art mash filtration technology for the wort production in brewhouses, and they are now competing in an almost-monopoly on a high performance level. Manufacturers that have integrated both lautering systems in their portfolio are in a clear competitive advantage, as the characteristics of both systems are fully known and can be very well presented with concrete arguments. Big breweries and brewing companies have recognized long ago which principle of lautering suits which brewery, in which country and under which operating conditions.
