We brewers take it for granted that brewing equipment of all types gets passed around from one brewery to another. If only these tanks could talk.
As craft breweries expand and rotate equipment in and out of the brewhouse, a niche of brewery “deconstructors” continues to emerge.
The goal of lautering is to separate the wort from the grain as quickly and efficiently as possible, saving money for the brewer in the form of increased grain yield.
At Stone Brewing Co., we use the UV-spectrophotometer to monitor multiple aspects of the brewing process to ensure we’re producing consistent beer across our many styles.
Establishing checklists based on standard operating procedures can turn all aspects of brewery operation into documented, sequential processes, essential during rapid change.
We typically think of using more grain as a way to increase the gravity of a fixed volume of wort. Instead, think of using more grain to increase the volume of low-gravity wort.
