Mash holding tank
A brewing vat is a large container used in making beer, wine, or other fermented beverages.
The vat holds the liquid during stages of the brewing process—mashing, fermenting, or storing.
Industrial breweries use massive stainless steel vats; traditional operations may still employ wooden ones: The old brewery's oak brewing vats dated back a century.
