Brewing is a process of regulating the interactions between water, starch, yeast, and hops to make beer. Following are the basic steps of brewing: A starch source (Grain or barley) is partially germinated or malted and dried. This partial germination allows easy conversion of the grain’s starches into sugars. The malted grains are then introduced to water and heat to enable the natural enzymes in the grain to convert its starches into fermentable sugars. It formed the mash. The mash is then filtered to remove the solids. The remaining liquid is then boiled. Hops can be added either at the beginning of the boil or towards the end based on the type of beer being made. The boiled output is called wort. The wort is filtered and cooled to a specific temperature, at which point yeast is added to begin the fermentation process. Fermentation can be done in a variety of vessels and can be followed by a period of conditioning (further aging away from dead yeast cells) or secondary fermentation (in bottles, e.g.). The outcome of this fermentation is beer.
