Use Cases / Where It Fits
Regional Craft Breweries
Scaling from pilot/proto-brewery to wholesale distribution (keg, can, bottle)
Contract / Co-Pack Brewing Facilities
Requiring repeatable consistency across styles (lager, IPA, stout, wheat)
Brewery Expansions
Adding a dedicated 50HL line alongside existing smaller kit
Multi-Shift Production Sites
Where parallel mashing + lautering + boiling increases daily yield vs. 2/3-vessel layouts

Product Features
SUS304 Full Stainless
All contact surfaces food-grade SUS304; 3mm+ vessel shell for commercial durability.
PLC Touchscreen Control
0-inch HMI with programmable step mashing, recipe storage, and ±0.5°C precision.
Steam Jacketed Heating
Dimple-plate jackets on both vessels — fast ramp, even heat, 8–10% boil-off rate.
Combined Mash/Lauter Tun
One tank does both — saves footprint, reduces cost, still achieves 85%+ mash efficiency.
Integrated Whirlpool Kettle
Tangential inlet for clean trub separation + direct knockout via sanitary plate heat exchanger.
Low Labor — 1-Brewer Operation
Single operator runs mashing, lautering, boiling, and knockout from one control panel.

product Advantage
01
Combined Mash/Lauter Tun + Kettle/Whirlpool Tank design eliminates one tank vs. 3-vessel systems — save 25–30% on upfront brewhouse cost without sacrificing output.
02
Full SUS304 stainless steel construction on all product-contact surfaces. 3mm–4mm shell thickness on hot-side vessels. SUS316L optional on kettle cladding.
03
Siemens PLC with 10-inch color HMI touchscreen. Programmable step-mash profiles, PID-controlled steam or direct-fire heating with ±0.5°C accuracy
04
Dimple-plate or half-pipe steam jackets on both vessels. 20 BBL strike water to mash-in temperature in under 15 minutes. Wort kettle boil-off rate 8–10% per hour. Optional electric heating elements for locations without boiler infrastructure.
05
Kettle/whirlpool combination vessel with tangential inlet. Clean trub cone separation. Paired with a sanitary plate heat exchanger — knockout 20 BBL from boiling to pitching temperature in under 45 minutes. Ready-to-pitch wort, batch after batch.
06
Add fermentation vessels, bright tanks, a dedicated hot liquor tank, grain handling, or CIP cart later. The 2-vessel platform is the entry point to a full turnkey brewery — scale up as demand grows, no re-engineering required.

frequently asked questions
1
Q: Is the equipment fully automatic or semi-automatic?
A: The mashing process can be either semi-automatic or fully automatic with PLC intelligent control. Temperature control is fully automatic.
2
Q:How many types of beer can one set of equipment brew? Can it make IPA, stout, and fruit beer?
A: One set of equipment can brew all types of craft beer: lager, IPA, stout, wheat beer, fruit beer, and sour beer. Only the raw materials, recipe, and fermentation parameters need to be adjusted.
3
Q: How long is the warranty? How is after-sales service handled overseas?
A: Stainless steel tanks have a 5-year warranty, electronic components and auxiliary equipment have a 1-year warranty; overseas, we provide 24/7 online English after-sales service, fast global shipping of parts, and can connect with local repair partners.
4
Q: Is steam heating necessary, or can I use electric heating?
A: Steam heating is recommended for 5000L+ systems because it provides even heat distribution, faster boil times, and better energy efficiency. Electric heating is possible but may require significant power capacity and longer heat-up times.
5
Q: Can the equipment be upgraded and expanded to increase production capacity later?
A: We support modular expansion. Fermentation tanks can be added directly, and the saccharification system can be upgraded without replacing the entire equipment. The initial investment is reusable, reducing upgrade costs.
6
Q: Can this system be expanded later?
A: Yes. The brewhouse is designed with extra I/O capacity in the control system, Reserved interface for additional fermenters, bright tanks, filtration, and packaging lines.
7
Q: Does the system support advanced brewing techniques?
A: Absolutely. Step-infusion mashing, decoction, hop-stand whirlpool, and dry hopping are all supported. The whirlpool and kettle geometry are optimized for wort clarity and hop utilization.
8
Q: What certifications are available?
A: Our brewery equipment can be built to CE, PED, ASME standards, with full pressure test reports and material certificates for EU, UK, US, and AU markets.
9
Q: How do you ensure hygiene and product safety?
A: All tanks are TIG welded, pickled and passivated, with mirror-polished interiors (Ra ≤ 0.6 μm). CIP systems cover every process line, minimizing manual cleaning and contamination risks.
10
Q: Can you integrate this brewery with my existing utilities?
A: Yes. We design the brewhouse and cellar to match your current glycol chiller, steam boiler, water treatment, and electrical supply, avoiding unnecessary upgrades.
