Part of the applications for a boiler in a brew house...............

As the mashed barley kernels move to the lauter tun — which functions like a large sieve — a steam boiler produces hot water and sprays it onto the grains. This process keeps the sugars moist. During sparging and lautering, water filters through the husks of the grains. Hot water is poured over these grains to remove their sugars. To optimize this process, a steam boiler helps maintain the appropriate water temperature for heat transfer. Proper water temperatures keep the sparging and lautering steps smooth and efficient. .....Besides sanitizing brewing tools, steam boilers help clean equipment for transporting beer. When keg lines and couplers aren’t cleaned correctly, leftover traces of yeast from brewing start to accumulate. Over time, this buildup can lead to clogged lines and compromised beverage flavors — not to mention the potential health risks from bacteria. While hot water is helpful for cleaning kegs, using it exclusively won’t get the job done. Steam pressure ensures a more robust cleaning process. It helps sanitize kegs before they’re filled with beer for transport. - ChardonLabs.com
