The concept of mash in brewery equipment refers to the process of using various hydrolases (or additional enzymes) contained in malt to gradually decompose insoluble
high molecular substances in malt and excipients into soluble low molecular substances under suitable conditions such as temperature, pH value and time. This process is
crucial in the production of wort, the liquid extracted from malt and excipients, which is used as the basis for beer production.
The extract obtained from mash is mainly composed of various fermentative sugars, non-fermentative dextrin, protein, malt gum and minerals. The percentage of the ratio of
extract to feed in wort is called leaching rate, which is about 75% ~ 80% in the saccharification process. The content of the raw material can be leached, and the undissolved
residue will be discharged together with the spent grains.
The purpose of mash in brewery equipment is to facilitate the action of various enzymes, dissolve insoluble substances, and obtain as much solute as possible, making the wort
composition appropriate for beer production. This is a critical step in the beer production process, and the quality of the brewery equipment used can greatly affect the success of
the mash process and the overall quality of the final product.
