Brewing Process

Step 1

GRAIN SELECTION is the first step in the brewing process. Grains contribute to the color and body in beer.

Step 2

THE GRIST MILL is used to crack open the mixed grain in order to expose starch.

Step 3

THE MASH TUN is where the mixed grain is mixed with the warm water which converts the grains into a "mash" that gets rinsed with hot water.

Step 4

THE BREW KETTLE is where the sweet liquid (wort) extracted from the mash is transferred to and boiled. Hops are added to give flavor, aroma and bitterness.

Step 5

THE HEAT EXCHANGER is where the hopped wort is pumped through to cool it down before the wort enters the fermentation tank.

Step 6

THE FERMENTATION TANK is where cultured yeast is added to the wort. The yeast consumes the sugar of the brew, creating carbon dioxide and alcohol.

Step 7

THE SERVING TANK is a temperature controlled storage unit, where beer is held until released to the tapper.

Step 8

THE TAPPER provides you with a delicious beer!
