After the wort has taken on the flavor of the hops they must be removed. The wort is passed through a "hop jack" or separator to remove both the hops and a large amount of the protein which was precipitated during the boil. This protein is known by the short and expressive name of "trub". 3, record 3, English, - break
Record number: 3, Textual support number: 2 CONT
The wort itself proceeds from the hop jack to the "hot wort tank", where most of the remaining trub is removed by settling. 4, record 3, English, - break

Most diagrams of boiling kettles show a straight-sided kettle with a round bottom and interior steam jackets/coils. Some are also direct-fired. However, one diagram shows the same type of kettle, sans steam internal steam coils or flame. This one draws from the bottom of the tank and pumps the wort through an external housing containing steam coils (called a calandria). The wort is then passed back through the MIDDLE of the tank (below the wort level) and shot through a "boiling fountain" to a point above the wort level where it is dispersed by an adjustable spreader and allowed to fall onto the surface of the wort. 3, record 4, English, - boiling%20fountain

On utilise le terme «réfrigération» pour décrire le processus de transfert du houblon de la chaudière à la cuve de fermentation. Le moût est pompé de la cuve d’empâtage et passe dans un surcuiseur rempli de houblon en feuilles. Ce processus rehausse la saveur houblonnée du moût en ébullition. 3, record 4, French, - surcuiseur
