Wort concentration generally refers to the proportion of wort formed by the malt (the term wort in beer) after the sugar process. Generally, the specific gravity of water is recorded as 1.000, if the malt in wort is enzymatically hydrolyzed to produce a lot of maltose or some other fermentable sugar

The wort then needs to be aerated to introduce oxygen. This typically takes about ten minutes.Once the yeast has been added to the wort
