The improvements of up-to-date Lauter tun

Compared with traditional lauter tun, the main body structure of up-to-date lauter tun does not have many changes. The improvements are mainly reflected in equipment quality, production capacity and automatic control etc. Here, let us talk one by one.

1.Production capacity
Due to time limitation of lautering, the trend of up-to-date lauter tun is upsizing and collectivizing. The wort amount per batch increases from tens of tons to hundreds of tons.

2.Material
Up-to-date lauter tun is made by
sanitary stainless steel 304 or 316 instead of traditional copper.

And it is insulated by rock wool, which can keep mash/wort temperature and prevent scalding when brewmasters touch the exterior shell by accident.

In addition, the false bottom can support much heavier mash, and the aperture ratio increases to 15%.

3.Mash in
In up-to-date lauter tun, the wort runs into tank from bottom rather than top. It can protect wort from touching with air.

4.Grain Rake
As you know, grain rake plays an important role in fastening lautering speed, improving wort quality and so on. Therefore, up-to-date lauter tun is assembled with 2, 3, 4 or 6 rake arms according to capacity. And the rake arm has various types, such as single foot, double feet and arch etc.

5.Full Seal
Up-to-date lauter tun adopts full seal design. A small sight glass is fitted on wort outlet. The brewmaster can observe the wort clarity via sight glass. In this case, the wort after lautering does not need to flow into open buffter tank. Accordingly, the wort has no access to touch with any air under high temperature, which can avoid wort aeration efficiently.

6.Automatic Control
The control of most of up-to-date lauter tun is automatic. The brewmaster only need to input programs in advance, then they can control the entire brewing by computer. It can void errors from hand operation.
