beer is the product of the alcoholic fermentation by yeast of extracts of malted barley. Whilst
malt and yeast contribute substantially to the character of beers, the quality of beer is at least as
much a function of the water and, especially, of the hops used in its production.
Barley starch supplies most of the sugars from which the alcohol is derived in the majority of the
worlds beers. Historically, this is because, unlike other cereals such as wheat, barley retains its
husk on threshing and this husk traditionally formed the filter bed through which the liquid
extract of sugars was separated in the brewery.
The starch in barley is enclosed in cell wall and proteins and these wrappings are stripped away
in the malting process (essentially a limited germination of the barley grains), leaving the starch
essentially preserved. This softens the grain and makes it more readily milled. Not only that, but
unpleasant grainy and astringent characters are removed during malting.
Malting
Malting commences with steeping of barley in water at 14-18 degreesC for up to 48h, until it
reaches a moisture content of 42-46%. This is usually achieved in a 3-stage process, with the
steeps being interspersed with air rests that allow the barley to get some oxygen (to breathe).
Raising the moisture content allows the grain to germinate, a process that usually takes 3-5 days
at 16-20 degreeC. In germination, the enzymes break down the cell walls and some of the protein
in the starchy endosperm, which is the grains food reserve, rendering the grain friable. Amylases
are produced in germination and these are important for the mashing process in the brewery.
Progressively increasing the temperature during kilning arrests germination, and regimes with
progressively increasing temperatures over the range 50 to perhaps 110degreesC are used to
allow drying to <5% moisture, whilst preserving heat-sensitive enzymes. The more intense the
kilning process, the darker the malt and the more roasted and burnt are its flavor characteristics.
Brewing
In the brewery, the malted grain must first be milled to produce relatively fine particles, which
are for the most part starch. The particles are then intimately mixed with hot water in a process
called mashing. The water must possess the right mix of salts. For example fine ales are
produced from waters with high levels of calcium. Famous pilsners are from waters with low
levels of calcium. Typically mashes have a thickness of three parts water to one part malt and
contain a stand at around 65 degreesC, at which temperature the granules of starch are converted
by gelatinization from an indigestible granular state into a melted form which is much more
susceptible to enzymatic digestion.
The enzymes that break down the starch are called the amylases. They are developed during the
malting process, but only start to act once the gelatinization of the starch has occurred in the
mash tun. Some brewers will have added starch from other sources, such as maize or rice, to
supplement that from malt. These other sources are called adjuncts.
After perhaps an hour of mashing, the liquid portion of the mash, known as wort, is recovered,
either by straining through the residual spent grains lautering) or by filtering through plates. The
wort is run to the kettle (sometimes known as the copper, even though they are nowadays
fabricated from stainless steel) where it is boiled, usually for 1 hour. Boiling serves various
functions, including sterilization of wort, precipitation of proteins (which would otherwise come
out of solution in the finished beer and cause cloudiness), and the driving away of unpleasant
grainy characters originating in the barley. Many brewers also add some adjunct sugars at this
stage, at which most brewers introduce at least a proportion of their hops.
The hops have two principal components: resins and essential oils. The resins (so-called alpha-
acids) are changed (isomerized) during boiling to yield iso-alpha-acids, which provide the
bitterness to beer. This process is rather inefficient. Nowadays, hops are often extracted with
liquefied carbon dioxide and the extract is either added to the kettle or extensively isomerized
outside the brewery for addition to the finished beer (thereby avoiding losses due to the bitter
substances tendency to stick on to yeast).
The oils are responsible for the hoppy nose on beer. They are very volatile and if the hops are
all added at the start of the boil then all of the aroma will be blown up the chimney. In traditional
lager brewing a proportion of the hops are held back and only added towards the end of boiling,
which allows the oils to remain in the wort. For obvious reasons, this process is called late
hopping. In traditional ale production, a handful of hops is added to the cask at the end of the
process, enabling a complex mixture of oils to give a distinctive character to such products. This
is called dry hopping. Liquid carbon dioxide can be used to extract oils as well as resins and
these extracts can also be added late in the process to make modifications to beer flavor.
After the precipitate produced during boiling has been removed, the hopped wort is cooled and
pitched with yeast. There are many strains of brewing yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae),and
brewers jealously guard and look after their own strains because of their importance in
determining brand identity.
Fermentation
In traditional lager brewing the 'green beer' is matured by several weeks of cold storage, prior to
filtering.
Nowadays,the majority of beers, both ales and lagers, receive a relatively short conditioning
period after fermentation and before filtration.This conditioning is ideally performed at -1C for
a minimum of three days, under whichconditions more proteins drop out of solution, making the
beer less likely to go cloudy in the package or glass.
The filtered beer is adjusted to the required carbonation before packaging into cans, kegs or glass
or plastic bottles.

I'm Elco, founder of BrewPi. Up until now BrewPi has only focused on controlling
fermentation, but that's about to change. The very first step in this, is to build a HERMS
myself.
Until now I have been doing stove-top BIAB. I have had pretty good results with my very
simple method:
- Heat water on stove (4 burners at once, big kettle)
- Put kettle in fridge for 5 minutes to preheat the fridge
- Put kettle back on stove, keep fridge door closed
- Heat again
- Put back in fridge, add grains, close door. Fridge is well isolated, temp hardly drops.
- For a next mash step, take kettle out, put on stove again (stir!) and put back.

This image has been resized. Click this bar to view the full image. The original image is sized 928x523.
With that very simple method I could produce pretty decent beers, but I think it's time for
an upgrade.
For the software, we are going to rewrite BrewPi from scratch. It will be very modular and
very flexible. It will adapt to all kinds of setups: HERMS, RIMS, BIAB, Fridges, Glycol, etc.
But that's not the point of this post. I would like to talk about hardware here.
Both systems will use electric Camco heating elements in the HLT and BK.
I have sourced most stainless steel parts and we even machined a lot of custom parts. I will
post an update when these are ready (2-3 weeks).
I am building this HERMS for myself, but in such a way that I can provide all these parts
later as a complete, simple to assemble HERMS kit.
On our website we will provide build guides, similar to the Electric Brewery.
I got some inspiration from blackheart brewery [tag]blackheart[/tag], but due to lack of
running water they used ice in the HLT to chill. I have running water, so a counter flow
chiller was added for much more effective cooling.
When I brew, I tend to make a huge mess (wort on the floor, burnt hands, sugar solution
splashed everywhere, etc), so that's why I think a closed system would be much better for
me.
A lot of attention has been given to clean in place possibilities of the system. It should be
easy to flush with tap water, hot water and PBW. Therefore a dedicated cold water input and
drain output have been added.
I plan to use silicone hose for all connections. I like to see the wort flow and this makes the
system very re-configurable and easy to take apart.
After the clean in place procedure (cold, PBW, cold, hot), the system should be pretty clean,
but I would still like to fully drain it. This can be done by opening all valves. For this to work
well, the tubing that's drawn above the kettles, should be above the kettles. I have to figure
out a nice way to do this. Suggestions welcome.
I have a 150x60cm stainless steel table with 2 levels to hold this beast. Pumps will be below
the kettles on the lower level.
I do not plan to use a tipping system. I do not have room for tipping and read blackheart
comment that they never use their fancy tipping system. All the cables are in the way to
make tipping work well.
I will rely an on a powerful wet vac for cleaning and emptying the kettles.
So without further ado, here are the pics:

in Share
For the production of bottom fermented beer it is necessary to cool the temperature of the wort to
6-10 C. Therefore, it is necessary to install another microbrewery equipment for the second
stage of wort cooling. In minibreweries BREWORX MODULO the unit WCU (Water Cooling
Unit) or the combined water treatment unit WCU / HWT (Water Cooling Unit / Hot Water
Tank) are used for this purpose..
1. Modulo WCU (Wort Cooling Unit) Compact independent unit for cooling of the
wort
2) Cooling unit with integrated condenser, which provides cooling in a cold water tank to a
temperature of about 1 C from the initial temperature of about 15 C in 10-20 hours.
3) Plate heat exchanger, ensuring effective transfer of the cold from ice water into wort.
4) Pump for the necessary flow of ice-water through the plate exchanger.
2. Modulo WCU / HWT (Wort Cooling Unit / Hot Water Tank) the water management
unit
Mobile independent compact equipment for wort cooling and recovery of heat water
obtained from waste heat in cooling the wort.
Special module, which integrates the unit for cooling of the wort and the hot water tank on a
shared frame with the wheels and adjustable legs. Hot water that we receive from cooling of the
wort in the first stage of cooling (in the plate heat exchanger integrated in the brewhouse) is
collected in a stainless steel insulated tank and is ready for use. Most often brewers use the hot
water for preparing the next batch of brewing, but also when washing and sanitizing other
equipment in microbrewery. This recuperation of waste heat from wort cooling contributes to
substantial savings in production costs.
The WCU-HWT unit contains :
1) Insulated tank for storing a sufficient volume of ice water.
3) Cooling unit with integrated condenser, which provides cooling in a cold water tank to a
temperature of about 1 C from the initial temperature of about 15 C in 10-20 hours.
4) Plate heat exchanger, ensuring effective transfer of the cold from ice water into wort.
5) Pump for the necessary flow of ice-water through the plate exchanger.
6) Pump for creating a pressure in the hot water pipes when using the stored hot water.
8) Chassis with wheels and adjustable feet for easy handling of the unit and safe positioning on
uneven ground.
9) Optionally, the unit can be equipped with electric heating elemets, standardly water is heated
in a wort kettle in the brewhouse.
Heat recovery and utilization of hot water with the WCU-HWT unit
The WCU-HWT unit in the brewery without hot water tank allows recovery to 95% of the heat ,
produced during wort cooling resulting hot water is collected in full volume in the tank for hot
water. Hot water will be used for the next cycle of subsequent wort boiling, or for washing and
sanitizing of brewhouse, tanks and other equipment in the brewery.

Almost all beer contains only four ingredients: barley, water, hops, and yeast. Though the process of brewing beer is
complex and varies considerably, the basic stages that are consistent are outlined below. There may be additional
filtration steps between stages.
MALTING: The first ingredient to come into play is barley, which is grain (or, in other words, a seed).
The seeds are soaked in water for about two days and allowed to begin their development into plants. Enzymes
are released that break down the proteins and starches in each grain into simple sugars meant to nourish the
baby plant. However, once this process has begun, the barley is cooked in a kiln, arresting the growth process
while the enzymes are at their peak of production. This is called malting.
MASHING: In the mashing stage, the grain is actually transformed into sugar. The grains are crushed into a
fine powder, or grist, and then soaked in water. Proteins are broken down; these eventually give the beer its
body. Starches are broken down into simple sugars that nourish the yeast. Complex sugars remain to give the
beer its malty taste. The mash is heated and strained to yield a substance called wort.
Next, the wort is brought to a boil and the flowers of the female hop plant are added. Bitter resins and aromatic
hop oils are released. The variety of hop, the amount added, and the point or points in the boil at which they are
added all contribute to the flavor of the beer. They add bitterness when added early to the boil, flavor if added in
the middle, and aroma when added at the end.
FERMENTATION: The wort is then cooled and moved into a fermentation vessel. Yeast is added and
allowed to consume most or all of the sugars in the wort. This is the fermentation process during which alcohol
is produced. The process takes about ten days. Each brewery has its own strains of yeast, and it is the yeast
that determines the character of the beer.
STORAGE: The beer is then separated from the yeast (racked). Once the yeast is removed the beer is
passed from fermentation to storage vessels. During transfer the beer is cooled to minus one degree
centigrade. The beer stays in storage at this temperature, and any material which might impair the appearance,
flavour and shelf-life of the beer settles out.
FILTRATION: Following a set time in storage, carbon dioxide gas collected during fermentation is added to
give beer its characteristic head and sparkling taste. The beer is then passed through a filtration system to
remove surplus yeast and protein.
PASTEURISATION: This is a process of heating and rapid cooling which prolongs shelf-life and destroys
any bacteria or other organisms in the beer. Canned and bottled beers are pasteurised in their containers, while
draught beer is pasteurised by means of a special heat exchanger called a flash pasteuriser.
PACKAGING: The filtered and sparkling beer is packaged into bottles, cans and stainless steel casks,
or kegs, ready for distribution.
