Whirlpool vessel for hot trub separation in brewing
In brewing operations, efficient hot trub separation is crucial for producing clear wort. Challenges include managing wort properties, fluid dynamics, and achieving optimal wort mass flow and entry velocity into the vessel. Mismanagement in this stage can lead to undesirable outcomes and affect the final beer quality.
Achieves efficient hot trub separation
The GEA Whirlpool Vessel is a specialized brewing tool designed to optimize hot trub separation during wort preparation. This system achieves a compact trub cone in the center of the vessel by balancing wort mass flow, entry velocity, vessel geometry, and flow conditions. By understanding the complex interaction between brewing materials and processes, GEA ensures reliable and high-standard operation. According to GEA, compared to centrifuges or filters, the Whirlpool Vessel is considered to be the most economical method for hot break separation after wort boiling. Its design encapsulates technical considerations essential for successful brewing, making it a trusted solution for breweries focused on producing high-quality beer.
