The lauter tun is the most widely employed wort separation vessel system in North America and Europe. Lauter tuns are, in general, designed much like infusion mash tuns, but they are wider and shallower. Like the mash tun, filtering is through slots in a false bottom that supports the grain bed. How

TemperatureAs mentioned, the temperature influences the amount of extract produced (yield) and the fermentability of the wort during mashing. In general, the higher the temperature, the greater the yield but the lower the fermentability of the wort.TimeMash times are another factor influencing yield

Dry MillingIn breweries, dry milling is commonly performed by roller mills or hammer mills. If the wort separation involves using a mash tun or lauter tun, roller mills are employed. Hammer mills are largely used for the later generation of mash filters and continuous brewing systems.
