The brewing process

- Grind the malt and transfer to the brewhouse kettle.

- Extract the sugar from the malt grains with warm water in the beer kettle.

kettle

- This sweet water is then transferred to the lauter tun and is separated into malt and sweet liquor.

 

- Sweet liquor is pumped into the adjacent kettle again where it is boiled and flavoured with hops and changed into Wort.

- The wort is then pumped to the back side fermentation tanks where yeast is added to start fermentation and beer production.

  

- Weiss is produced using top fermenting yeast

- Pilsner & Dunkel are produced with bottom fermenting yeast.

- After approximately three to four weeks Weiss is then ready to drink. Pilsner & Dunkle take approximately five weeks.

- At the end of fermentation the beers are pumped into the beer dispensing tanks for the maturization which is controlled at 0 degrees centigrade.

 

- Castle Oktober is using the “ECOLAB” brand for CIP to ensure total cleanliness of the brewing equipment.
