In geuze production, wild yeasts settle in during the cooling of the boiled wort through contact with the outside air. Afterwards, the brewer transfers the wort to wooden barrels where it continues to ferment for one to three years (1). With the foam scraper, a full iron scraper with a long handle (approx. 110 cm), the overflowing foam is scraped off the staves. See also the cooper's handle-scraper. [MOT] (1) The result of the fermentation is the 'lambic' beer.

The fudge wheel has a grooved metal wheel (approx. 1.5-2 cm diameter) that is attached to a metal, sometimes slightly curved shaft, which is provided with a wooden handle. The total length is approximately 14-18 cm and the wheel has 3 to 7 grooves per centimeter. The shoemaker uses the fudge wheel to imitate a hand sewn seam on the top edge of the shoe sole or to secure the stitches on that edge; it is always heated before use. There are also fudge wheels with interchangeable wheels. The wooden handle is usually hollow and can be unscrewed so that the wheels can be stored in it. The wheel itself is held in place by a movable hook that closes around the axis. [MOT]
