===Cooling/Inoculation===
After boiling is complete, the wort is sent through a filter (often a simple metal screen) to clear the wort of major hop and trub debris. This slow process will eventually drain the wort into a vessel called a [[https://192.185.42.233/index.php?title=Koelschip|koelschip]] (coolship). Coolships often reside in the brewery's highest most point next to slatted windows so that the cool night air can deposit hosts of microorganisms that will ferment out the wort into lambic. This process can only happen during the cooler months of the year due to the fact that molds have a difficult time surviving the cold temperatures. It will take the wort a period of about 10 hours to cool to the desired temperature at which point it will be transferred to barrels.
