The vessel in which lautering takes place. It is usually fitted with either a false bottom or a manifold in order to facilitate the rinsing of the grains.
The vessel used in brewing between the mash tun and the brew kettle. It separates the barley husks from the clear liquid wort. The barley husks themselves help provide a natural filter bed through which the wort is strained.
Any vessel used to hold all-grain brewing ingredients during the lauter ( sparge). Lauter tuns must contain a false bottom to allow drainage of sweet wort while retaining the grain bed. However, anything from a brewing kettle to nested plastic buckets will do, provided a false bottom set-up is created. Many lauter tuns are equipped with sprinklers above the grains to allow an even spray of sparge water over the grain bed.
A vessel where mash settles and grains are strained out of the sweet wort.
Refers to the vessel that hold the grain bed during the lautering process.
a device with a false, screened bottom that allows you to collect a runoff of wort, which is created by pouring the sparge water over the grains
a separate vessel to do this job
a vessel equipped with a false bottom or strainer to separate the sweet wort from the grain
a vessel used for created cooked mashes
Used for the lautering process, this vessel is typically fitted with a false bottom that holds the grain bed during sparging.
A vessel used to strain the sweet liquor or wort off the spent grains after mashing.
A large vessel with a perforated false bottom. It is used to strain the sweet wort off the spent grains after mashing.
One of the vessels used in the brewing process, used to filter the liquid wort from the solid mash. Lauter Tuns usually have a false bottom which opens up to filter the mash.
Vessel used to clarify the wort after the mashing stage.
A vessel with a slotted bottom allowing the wort to drain away while keeping the spent grain in vessel for later disposal.
A large vessel with a false slotted bottom and a drain spigot in which the mash is allowed to settle and the sweet wort is removed from the grains through a straining process. In smaller breweries and in the infusion system, the mash tun is used for both masing and lautering.
A Lauter Tun is a special container used in all-grain brewing for separating the sweet wort from the spent grains (malted barley etc.). In essence it is simply a large strainer. Can be as simple as a plastic bucket with holes in the bottom or complex as a stainless steel kettle with a specialized straining device attached to a spigot welded into the side of the kettle.
