Today, I wanted to discuss the different parts of the brewing process step-by-step with a little explanation of each. I’ve added in some diagram and visuals in the hope of making the whole process easier to understand.
We will then go through the main steps of the brewing process. As well as which brewhouse vessel it takes place in, depending on your set-up. The most common brewhouse set-ups are:
2 Vessel System – A combined mash/lauter tun + combined kettle/whirlpool
3 Vessel System – A mash tun + lauter tun + combined kettle/whirlpool
3 Vessel System – A combined mash/lauter tun + kettle + whirlpool
4 Vessel System – A mash tun + lauter tun + kettle + whirlpool
We will take a quick look at the merits of each setup at the end of the article but, to be honest it deserves its own post.
Brewing Process Step-By-Step – The Stages
To help with the brewing process I’ve made a little flow chart (see below) of the various steps you need to go through to make beer. It also shows where the four main ingredients (water, malt, hops and yeast) are added during the process.
In the next article, let’s discuss grist milling part, and brewhosue mashing part.
