increase the volume again
by adding solid butter which will melt and bubble out to increase the volume after reduction.

mount
"aufziehen" = "montieren". You "mount" a sauce with butter.

Cetacea
: I didn't know (technical) cooking terms could be esoteric. Weird, yes, but esoteric?? // True, but when I see "abpassieren" und "einreduzieren", it's not beginners that are being addressed...

Yes, esoteric, as in "known to a small group." More people will understand "finish" than "mount." The best choice depends on the target audience.
