mäsktillväxt
Mäsktillväxt refers to the process of yeast growth during the mashing phase of brewing. Mashing involves steeping malted grains in hot water, a process that converts starches into fermentable sugars. Yeast, while not actively fermenting during this stage, can still grow in the mash if conditions are favorable.
This growth is primarily driven by the presence of readily available nutrients and a suitable temperature
The temperature of the mash plays a critical role. While optimal temperatures for starch conversion are typically
While some minimal yeast growth in the mash might not be detrimental, excessive mäsktillväxt can potentially
