Abstract
The present invention relates to an apparatus for heating up wort during brewing. For a simple and inexpensive force-type circulation of wort during the heating or boiling process preceding the hop adding step, the present invention suggests a connection pipe which is branched off from the casting pipe downstream of the casting pump and terminates again in the vessel underneath the inner boiler for heating wort. Furthermore, there is provided at least one respective shut-off device in the casting pipe and the connection pipe downstream of the casting pump.
