A fluid coupling system arranged laterally between a first tank and a second tank of a brewing system is provided. The fluid system comprises: a plurality of pipes configured to couple with an inlet and outlet of the first tank and an inlet and the outlet of the second tank; an impeller pump coupling with a pipe; and an actuator coupled with a pipe, configured to facilitate fluid flow through the fluid coupling system. A method of brewing a beverage using a brewing system is also provided, comprising: mashing ingredients within a first tank to form a mash; transferring the mash into a second tank; lautering the mash to form a clarified wort; transferring the clarified wort to the first tank for boiling; transferring the clarified wort to the second tank for chilling; emptying the first tank and the second tank; and cleaning the first tank and the second tank.

Examples relating to a brewing system are provided. The brewing system includes an outer housing; a first tank and a second tank arranged within an interior region of the outer housing; a fluid coupling system arranged between the first tank and the second tank and fluidly coupling the first tank and the second tank; and an operator interface for controlling the operation of the brewing system. In another example, a method of brewing a beverage using a brewing system is provided. The method comprises: receiving, by the brewing system, an indication of a recipe via an operator interface; receiving ingredients; mashing the ingredients to form a mash; transporting the mash; lautering the ingredients to form a wort; cooling the wort; receiving an indication of whether to perform a fermentation of the wort or a transfer of the wort to a separate system; and cleaning the brew system.

A component of a brewing system is provided, which comprises: a tank; a whirl arm disposed within the tank; an inlet pipe coupled with the whirl arm; and an outlet pipe coupled with a fluid coupling system; wherein the tank is configured for filtering a mash to form a wort. A brewing system is provided, which comprises: a first and a second tank, and a fluid coupling system, the second tank comprising: an inner and an outer cylinder; a whirl arm within the second tank; an inlet pipe coupled with the whirl arm and the fluid coupling system; and an outlet pipe coupled with the fluid coupling system. A method is provided, which comprises: receiving mash within a second tank from a first tank; circulating mash to form wort; transferring the wort into the first tank; receiving wort within the second tank from the first tank; and chilling the wort.

Aspects of the present disclosure relate to an automated brewing system. In examples, a brewing system includes a variety of brewing components (e.g., one or more tanks, pumps, heaters, chillers, and/or sensors) and an associated brewing controller that manages operation of the brewing components. The brewing system may include an operator device that is in communication with the brewing controller and obtains one or more recipes (e.g., from a brewing platform) to be performed by the brewing system, thereby at least partially automatically brewing liquid based on the recipe accordingly. A user device may enable a user to browse recipes of the brewing platform, view the status of the brewing system, and/or control the brewing system, among other examples.

A component of a brewing system is provided, comprising a tank; a rotary arm disposed within the tank; an inlet pipe coupled with the rotary arm; and an outlet pipe coupled with a fluid coupling system of the brew system. Additionally, a brewing system is provided, which comprises: a first and a second tank, and a fluid coupling system between the first and second tank, the first tank including: an inner cylinder and an outer cylinder; a rotary arm; an inlet pipe fluidly coupled with the rotary arm; and an outlet pipe. Further, a method is provided, comprising: receiving water into the first tank; boiling the water; receiving malt into the first tank; mashing the malt to form a mash; transferring the mash out of the first tank; receiving wort into the first tank; boiling the wort within the first tank; and transferring the wort out of the first tank.

Method for mashing of malt and water to produce wort in a single upright tank (12), comprising the steps: feeding of fresh malt via a fresh malt inlet (16) to a lower part of the tank (12); feeding of mash water via a mash water inlet (22) to an upper part of the tank (12); mixing of the fresh malt and the mash water in the tank (12) to produce the wort by conveying malt from a lower part of the tank (12) to an upper part of the tank (12); discharge of used malt through an upper used malt outlet (18); and discharge of wort from the tank (12) through a lower wort outlet (20). The invention also disclose a mash apparatus (10) for production of wort, comprising a tank (12) for holding malt and water, said tank (12) having a lower part (14a) with a lower fresh malt inlet (16) and a lower wort outlet (20), an upper part (14b) with an upper used malt outlet (18) and an upper mash water inlet (22), wherein said tank (12) further comprises an internal conveyer (24) for feeding of malt from the lower part (14a) to the upper part (14b).

The invention is related to the food industry. The proposed apparatus is used for wort production from grain raw material, and comprises a lower tier, an upper tier and at least one process tier located in-between. Each tier is equipped with a mixer, a water supply pipe, a wort transfer pipe and an auger separator, comprising a perforated pipe or a slotted screen with an auger, squeezed grain raw material outlets, a wort discharge branch pipe, a thrust washer and a thrust spring inside. The bottom of each tier is inclined. A funnel for crushed grain raw material supply is provided on the process tier located above the lower tier. A wort outlet is provided in the lower tier. A method for producing wort from grain raw material is also disclosed. The group of inventions provides an increase in the yield of the finished product.
