Product Breakdown

  • Mash/Lauter Tuns: Combined or separate vessels (5-100 BBL) with false bottoms, rakes, and variable speed drives achieving 75-85% brewhouse efficiency with mash temperatures controlled to ±1°F for optimal enzyme activity
  • Brew Kettles: Direct-fire, steam-jacketed, or internal calandria heated vessels with 10-25% evaporation rates, featuring whirlpool ports, hop additions systems, and wort collection for 60-90 minute boils
  • Hot Liquor Tanks (HLT): Insulated vessels (1.5-3x brew size) maintaining strike water at 165-175°F with HERMS (Heat Exchange Recirculating Mash System) or direct heating for consistent mash temperature control
  • Fermentation Vessels: Cylindroconical tanks (5-500 BBL) with 60-70° cone angles, glycol jackets providing ±0.5°F control, top and bottom manways, sample ports, and pressure ratings to 15 PSI for natural carbonation
  • Bright Beer Tanks: Horizontal or vertical serving/storage tanks with carbonation stones, pressure relief valves, and glycol cooling maintaining finished beer at 32-38°F with <0.5 PPM dissolved oxygen
  • Automated Brewhouse Systems: PLC-controlled mashing, lautering, and boiling with recipe management, automated valve sequencing, temperature profiling, and real-time monitoring reducing manual intervention by 70%

Technical Details

  • Vessel Construction: 304 or 316 stainless steel with 2B finish, conical or dished bottoms, tri-clamp manways and connections, working pressures to 15 PSI, and hydrostatic testing per ASME standards
  • Heating Systems: Direct-fire burners (100,000-1,000,000 BTU/hr), steam jackets (15-150 PSI supply), or electric elements providing 1-3°F/minute ramp rates with PID temperature control and high-temperature cutoffs
  • Cooling Systems: Dimpled or half-pipe glycol jackets (-5°F to 40°F glycol) with proportional control valves, recirculation pumps (5-50 GPM), and insulation achieving crash cooling rates of 5-10°F/hour
  • Lauter Equipment: Slotted false bottoms (0.020"-0.030" slots) or wedge wire screens with automated rakes (1-10 RPM variable speed) and grant level control optimizing runoff clarity and flow rates of 0.5-1.5 BBL/ft²/hr
  • Transfer Pumps: Centrifugal pumps for wort (10-100 GPM) and positive displacement pumps for beer transfer preventing CO2 loss, with VFDs and sanitary seals minimizing oxidation and maintaining carbonation
  • Automation and Controls: Allen Bradley or Siemens PLCs with 10"-15" touchscreen HMIs managing brewing sequences, fermentation profiles, and CIP routines with recipe storage, batch reporting, and remote monitoring capabilities
