| Brewhouse The pride and heart of our wheat beer brewery are our two state-of-the-art brewhouses. Once dominated by huge, glimmering copper pans, we now mash our barley and wheat malts in mash tuns made of stainless steel - combining state-of-the-art brewing technology with traditional processes. The steel pans can be cleaned more easily than traditional copper pans. The wort created by this process is separated in the so-called lauter tun from the glume of the barley malt and fed into the wort tun. Here it is boiled together with the hops and then evaporated to make the wort. Then the wort is placed in a whirlpool or hot wort receiver in order to precipitate the protein. From there it flows directly into the fermentation cellar. This is how we protect the environment ... We feed most of the heat generated in the brewing process back into the heating cycle. This saves 80% of our primary energy needs! The spent grain extracted from the glume is given to neighboring farmers, who feed it to their cows. Erdinger Weissbier is thus made in a particularly energy-saving and environmentally friendly manner! |
