Saccharification rest 1
In the third mash phase, further starch components are broken down
with the aid of enzymes active at this temperature level and liquefied in
the wort. The temperature stage is about 73 °C and is also maintained for
about 35 minutes.
Saccharification rest 2
In the last phase, residual starches saccharify and thus form even more
non-fermentable extracts, which make the beer a little more full-bodied.
The wort is heated up to 78 °C with constant pumping and kept there for
10 minutes. An iodine sample can be used to determine whether residual
starch is still present in the wort. To do this, drip some wort onto a white
plate and add some iodine. If the sample discolours brown-red or yellow,
saccharification is sufficient. If not, the last temperature stage must be
kept longer.
6.5 Lautering
Once the programmed brewing phases have been completed, a signal
tone sounds again. This is also acknowledged with
Continue . The pump
switches off and you are prompted to purge (“remove malt pipe”).
6.5.1 Information about lautering
Lautering is the separation of the malt grist from the beer wort.
Compared to many other home brewing methods, lautering with the
Braumeister PLUS is a relatively simple, quick and clean process and
represents a central concept of the Braumeister.
The malt pipe is placed on the lower support bolts and hung in the
support bracket so that the beer wort drips from the malt into the
boiler. The malt grains can be washed out afterwards with sparge water
to remove the last traces of extract. In German this process is called
“Anschwänzen” (process not absolutely necessary).
The so-called “Anschwänzen” is done by pouring 78 °C hot water (max.
78 °C! – no boiling water) into the top of the malt pipe. Remove the upper
sieve plate incl. sieve cloth and loosen the malt grains slightly with the
help of a long wooden spoon. During lautering, the temperature remains
constant at the preset temperature of 78 °C.
