Working Principle
· The brewing system operates by converting malt starch into fermentable sugars through controlled mashing, followed by wort separation, boiling, cooling, and fermentation processes
· During mashing, temperature and time are carefully controlled to activate enzymes, ensuring efficient sugar conversion and stable wort quality
· The wort is then boiled to sterilize the liquid, remove unwanted compounds, and extract flavors from hops
· After boiling, the wort is rapidly cooled through a plate heat exchanger to reach optimal fermentation temperature
· Yeast is added to initiate fermentation, where sugars are converted into alcohol and carbon dioxide under controlled temperature conditions
· The glycol cooling system maintains precise fermentation temperature, ensuring consistent product quality and flavor stability
· The entire system is designed for continuous operation, enabling efficient beer production with stable performance and repeatable results
