Device (V) for obtaining a wort (WO) from a mash (MA) in the beer brewing or beverage industry, at least comprising a receiving unit (AG) for receiving the mash (MA); at least one separating device (T; T1, T2) each having a surface (FA; FA1, FA2); wherein the surface (FA) has a multiplicity of openings (OP); wherein the device (V) is preferably suitable for separating the mash (MA) into the wort (WO) and a residual mash (RM) by means of the surface (FA) of the separating device (T); wherein the surface (FA; FA1, FA2) or a part thereof can be brought into contact with the mash (MA), if the mash (MA) is present in the receiving unit (AG) for separation into the wort (WO) and the residual mash (RM); and wherein, during the operation of the device (V), the surface (FA) is arranged such that it is moved or can be moved or can be rotated relative to the mash (MA), the residual mash (RM) and/or the receiving unit (AG).

A product hydrolysate from brewers' spent grain is disclosed, and the process for the preparation thereof, as well as uses thereof in food for humans and feed for animals. This hydrolysate contains a high percentage of pentosans at a low molecular weight which therefore offers a high bioavailability of soluble fibres. This allows the drawbacks associated with a high consumption of wholegrain products to be overcome, while also allowing consumers to benefit from the nutritional components contained therein.

A device, system and method are for treating a suspension, containing plant constituents, in particular separating a liquid or a solid therefrom, in the field of production of food, pharmaceutical and luxury products, and to corresponding uses. The device for continuously or discontinuously treating a suspension, in particular for separating a liquid or liquid phase or a solid or a residual phase from the suspension includes: a receiving unit for receiving the suspension and at least one separating device having a surface having openings. The surface can be brought into contact with the suspension, if the suspension is present in the receiving unit for separation into the liquid phase and the solid phase. During the operation of the device, the surface is arranged such that it is moved or can be moved or can be rotated relative to the suspension, the solid phase and/or the receiving unit.

A cold brewing coffee device that produces coffee without any suspended solids in the product. The devices uses a false bottom in the initial tank to hold the coffee beans and water is pumped between the initial tank and a second tank. Using an inverted P trap in the piping allow for reduced suspended solids in the final product. The end product is a high quality cold brewed beverage that is defined by the beverages clarity and lack of visible suspended solids, wherein the resulting product has a distinct look compared to other brewed beverages (i.e. producing a product that is cleaner than competing products without the need for a filter).

The invention relates to a brewing plant for continuously or discontinuously obtaining and treating a wort in the beer brewery or beverage industry; wherein the wort derived based on a surface filtration, is obtained continuously or discontinuously. In a second device the wort obtained as such, is set to a first temperature between 0 and 86 C. after completing of the thermal treatment of the wort; and an enzyme-containing substrate is added by means of an apparatus. Therein, the first apparatus for setting the temperature of the wort to a first temperature is arranged downstream to an apparatus for keeping hot or boiling of the wort. The apparatus is arranged downstream to the first apparatus for setting the temperature of the wort to the first temperature. Moreover, a corresponding method and corresponding uses are suggested.
