The Compact Brewhouse BHM 4BBL can be used for 3 different mashing procedures:
Infusion mashing is a traditional mashing method to produce and recover extract from a single temperature. The single infusion mash uses a single temperature rest at which the enzymes are active to convert the malt starches into wort sugars. This method is widely utilized for ale style beers and for producing lagers widely recognized in the United States and throughout the world.
Multi-step mashing procedure includes a series of rests at various temperatures in a mash mixer/lauter tun. From one step to the next the temperature is increased to the desired value. The main advantage of the temperature-programmed mashing is that both specific enzyme activity and fermentability of the wort can be promoted by controlling the temperature and duration of stands at selected points. This method is widely utilized for more German and European style beer.
Decoction mashing is a way to conduct multi-step mashes without adding additional water or applying heat to the Mash Tun. It involves removing about a third of the Mash to another pot where it is heated to conversion temperature, then boiled and returned to the Mash Tun. The portion removed should be pretty stiff, no free water should be showing above the top of the grain. This procedure accomplishes three things. First, the addition of boiling hot gruel to the main mash raises the temperature of the mash to the next rest. Second, the boiling process breaks up the starch molecules of the unconverted grist and produces a higher degree of extraction from moderately-modified continental malts. Lastly, it makes it possible to achieve the crisp, dry maltiness characteristic of German Oktoberfest and other continental lagers.
