A lot should be considered when you plan to build your own brewery like brew tech,brewery equipment configuration,brewery equipment cost and price,find a location for brewery install, license and regulation of brewery. This article column is specially to talk how to deal with gelatinization mash sticking to the bottom of the pot, which makes the temperature unable to rise.
If the gelatinization mash is too thick and the viscosity is very high, the bottom will be formed at the heating jacket part of the gelatinization pot. This layer of binder will affect the heat transfer of the jacket, so that the temperature can not rise or the heating speed is very slow. At the same time, the part of the binder close to the heating surface may coking. If this happens, the following measures can be taken.
① Turn down the steam valve, stop stirring, use a blunt tool with a long handle (such as wooden shovel, bamboo slice, aluminum plate, etc.) to move at the bottom of the pot, depict some heating surfaces, start the agitator to quickly stir, and then gradually turn up the steam valve, slowly heat, the situation will be significantly improved.
② If the temperature of gelatinizing mash is close to boiling temperature, add a small amount of high temperature hot water (above 90 ℃), turn down the steam valve, increase the stirring speed, keep the temperature for 5 ~ 10min, and then put it into the saccharification pot. Whether or not to add hot water and how much hot water to add can be determined according to the capacity of gelatinization pot and saccharification pot and the consistency of mash.
③ If the temperature doesn't rise, in addition to scraping out the heating surface, amylase preparation should be added to strengthen the liquefaction of gelatinizing mash to prevent the bottom of the pot from sticking again.
④ After the mash is finished, clean the bottom of the pot and rinse it with clean water until the surface is smooth.
