A vessel fitted with a false slotted bottom equipped with a sparging (hot water delivery) system to wash the mash to recover the extract. Unlike mash tuns they are wider and shallower and are equipped with rakes. In smaller breweries and in the infusion system the mash tun is used for both mashing and lautering.
