HERMS stands for '''H'''eat '''E'''xchanged '''R'''ecirculating '''M'''ash '''S'''ystem.<br>
 
The HERMS allows the brewer to recirculate the wort from the mash tun, through a heat exchanger and back into the mash tun.  The temperature of the recirculated wort is controlled by the heat exchanger which, as a result, controls the temperature of the mash very precisely.  The added benefit is that the action of recirculation clarifies the wort by using the grain bed as a filter.
