Experience with wet method of malt crushing.Peer-reviewed article

J. CUŘÍN, V. ČERNOHORSKÝ

Wet crushing is a method differing substantially from conventional crushing and requires, therefore modifications in technology. From the results of their own experiments the authors estimate, that by introducing this method the time required for mash filtering can be reduced by much as 27%. The clarity of wort and grains is somewhat lower than normal, which is due to higher percentage of sludge in wort. No difference could be zraced in yield and composition of wort. The authors evaluate the outlooks of the method in Czechoslovak brewing industry.
