Innovative design for improved wort treatment
GEA JETSTAR® Wort Boiling System
JETSTAR® technology reduces thermal stress for improved trub separation, increasing hop yield, clarity and quality.
How JETSTAR® works
An integrated solution that includes heating, wort boiling and treatment and casting out without the need for intermediate cleaning. Our two-phase boiling system encourages homogenous wort mixing, improves trub separation and overall wort quality.
This optimized process uses a thermo-siphon design with multilevel wort spreader to effectively remove unwanted volatiles, all while using less energy and reducing your carbon footprint.
JETSTAR® benefits at a glance
Innovative design – uses a natural circulation evaporator without the need for an additional pump for reduced pulsation and stress.
Improved quality – homogenous circulation, greater trub separation for enhanced clarity and flavor.
Increased efficiency and yield – two-level wort spreader for more intensive evaporation and greater hop yield.
Agile design – easily installed or retrofitted, offering technological flexibility for recipe variation and special beer types.
Technical highlights
- Easy to retrofit into existing wort kettles.
- Intelligent wort boiling management (IWM) software compatible.
- Energy efficient and compatible with a range of energy storage systems.
- Two-phase boiling separates thermal conversion and evaporation processes.
- Homogenous wort mixing with low TBI values.
