Beer is a beverage that the public like very much. Especially in summer, the demand for beer is increasing. Nowadays, craft beer is becoming more and more popular. People are not satisfied with a single taste. They like to develop individuality and enrich the taste. With the prevalence of craft beer culture, more and more people want to make craft beer. So, What is the craft beer equipment cost? How to choose a craft beer equipment manufacturer? Which model should I choose? What should I do if I don’t know the brewing process? Let me answer you one by one today.
Making beer equipment is the same as making beer. We need to be attentive, attentive, and attentive to do every detail, think of every point to customers, how to make it more convenient for customers to use, and to serve every customer well is our aim. The same is true for beer, every detail and every step of craft beer is done well. As long as you treat it with your heart, it will treat you with your heart.
What factors determine the craft beer equipment cost?
Different types of beer processing equipment lead to different costs
Beer equipment is mainly divided into home brewing system, medium beer equipment, large beer equipment, general home brewing beer system is 50L or 100L, medium beer equipment is generally 500L, 1000L, 2000L and above, the price of 300L is not much cheaper than 500L , So generally use 500L. First of all, we must investigate the market, and choose the model based on the amount of output at the beginning, or choose a slightly larger one, so as to avoid the increase in output in the future and the replacement of equipment, which will cause waste.If you don’t know how to choose a model, please communicate with us. According to your local market, choice of taste, choice of venue and a series of questions, we will help you choose the model. We have professional brewing engineers to select the location, brewing process, Equipment one-stop service.
The integrity of brewing system is the key factor in the cost of beer processing equipment
We know that the principle of brewing beer is unchanged. A complete set of brewing equipment includes malt crushing system, saccharification system, fermentation system, CIP cleaning system, refrigeration system, electrical system, and accessory system. The configuration of each link is different, I will give you a distribution introduction.
Malt milling system
Before crushing malt, we must first choose malt. There are many varieties of malt, and the varieties used in different brewing processes are also different. For example: the classic basic malt is suitable for all beer types, and the colored malt is suitable for amber rags.
Choose a good malt and proceed to the next step of malt crushing. If the output is not large, it is recommended to use a roller type malt crusher. The torque between them can just break the bark without crushing, and the malt powder will reach the humidity of the crushing, so the next step is saccharification. At this time, the starch in the malt can be better broken down into sugar, and large molecules can be broken down into small molecules. During the filtration process, the wheat husk forms a natural filter layer to speed up the filtration and make the wort clear.
Mash system
The saccharification process includes saccharification-filtration-boiling-spin sedimentation, according to this process we can choose the combination of saccharification system.
Mash system | Compose | Suitable model | Heating method | Feature |
One vessel one pot | 30L-100L | Electric heating, steam heating, direct fire heating | Saccharification, filtration, boiling, and spin-down are carried out in one pot, suitable for small batches and small output manufacturers | |
Two vessel two pot | 50L-2000L | Electric heating, steam heating, direct fire heating | 1.50L-500L can be heated by electricity, and steam is recommended for heating above 500L. 2. Two containers, one can be used for saccharification and filtration, and the other can be used for boiling and spinning. 3. If the output is small, one can also be used for filtration, and the other pot can be used for saccharification, boiling, and spinning. Various combinations are available. | |
Two vessel three pot | 50L-2000L | Electric heating, steam heating, direct fire heating | 1. Both can be heated by steam, and those below 500L can be heated by electric or direct fire. 2. The combination of containers is: one tank is a saccharification/filter tank, the other tank has a filter on the top, and a spin-down tank on the bottom. | |
Three vessel three pot | 50L-above2000L | Electric heating, steam heating, direct fire heating | 1. Combination can be combined freely according to your own habits 2. Improve production efficiency and can work continuously. | |
Four vessel four pot | Above 500L | steam heating | 1. It can work continuously and has high efficiency. 2. Saccharification, filtration, boiling, and rotary sinking each have one pot, each working separately | |
Five vessel five pot | Above500L | steam heating | 1. In addition to the saccharification, filtration, boiling, and rotary sinking pot, add a gelatinization pot | |
… | … | … | … |
According to the combination of the above saccharification system, the price is definitely different. You can match it according to your habits.
Fermentation system
The price of fermentation tanks is mainly determined by the number of fermentation tanks. The number of fermentation tanks is determined by the different fermentation time and the production output per day. For example: Use a 500L saccharification system, do two batches a day, the fermentation time is 12 days, generally use 24set 500L fermentation tanks or 12 set 1000L fermentation tanks.
Factors affecting cost:
1. Combination of saccharification system
2. Different heating methods
3. Different crushing system
4. Number of fermentation tanks
5. Additional configuration
In summary, there are many factors that affect the price. If you want to invest in craft beer or build a brewery, please contact us, we will give you constructive suggestions, and we will communicate with each other to make the best plan.
