Wort boiling signals the transition of the beer brewing process to its hot phase as the refined wort is boiled to sterilize it. Malt enzymes are inactivated, hops are added to the wort, and unrefined aromas are extracted. This partial process in the brewhouse is absolutely essential for the quality of the beer.

All the physical and chemical processes, all the process steps and their interrelationships must be carefully incorporated to ensure optimal results in terms of brewing technology. This is precisely what GEA Liquid Processing does.

We see state of the art wort boiling as an interrelated package comprised of the heating-up process, the actual wort boiling and the wort treatment during cast-out. Each individual step has a decisive impact on the next one. And each step contributes to the overall optimization of the process in terms of outstanding beer quality and gentle production. Wort boiling is, moreover, an important issue in terms of energy technology - and, as such, a commercial factor - at the brewery.
