The modern mash filter is compared to lauter tuns. Wort boiling systems, cross-flow or membrane filtration, yeast propagation, and process improvements are considered. Approaches taken to reducing energy, water and effluent are highlighted, as is by-product usage. The impact of computers, software, and digital technology on process control, automation, engineering design, and project implementation are reviewed.
