mash

.. is what I think it's called. Look at the following text:

Saccharification: The mash from the cookers is cooled and the secondary enzyme (gluco-amylase) is added to convert the liquefied starch to fermentable sugars (dextrose).

Fermentation: Yeast is added to the mash to ferment the sugars to ethanol and carbon dioxide (CO2). Using a continuous process, the fermenting mash is allowed to flow, or cascade, through several fermenters until the mash is fully fermented and then leaves the final tank. In a batch fermentation process, the mash stays in one fermenter for about 48 hours before the distillation process is started.

To help you decide between must and wort:

Merriam-Webster says:

Date: before 12th century
: the expressed juice of fruit and especially grapes before and during fermentation; also : the pulp and skins of the crushed grapes

Etymology: Middle English, from Old English wyrt; akin to Middle High German würze brewer's wort, Old English wyrt root, herb
