Stage 2 - Mashing

The crushed barley is mixed with hot water in the “mash tun”. Here the temperature is controlled to provide the right environment for the enzymes to convert with malt into sugar. The temperature is raised from 50 degrees C step by step through to 78 degrees C when the conversion process is complete. The water is specially treated to be the same as water from breweries around the world where the beer flavour is unique.
