What equipment is needed to open a craft beer brewery?

First of all, at the beginning of the construction of the bar, it is necessary to determine the scale and the number of daily customer services, and fully consider the location and location of the bar, the maximum population during holidays and so on. Then do market research and related preparations.

Take a small bar as an example. If the number of people served per day is about 150 people, then according to the amount of alcohol consumed by adult men and the supply of other food, no one drinks 3L each time is enough, then the corresponding beer bar If you need equipment, you need a daily output of 500L. Taking the output of 500L/3BBL as an example, the following is a detailed list of equipment required for a bar of this scale.

The first is the raw material processing of beer, which requires a roller mill to crush malt and store malt powder for brewing.

500L Two vessels combination beer brewing brewhouse,mash/kettle tun+lauter/whirlpool tun.The brewing time for each batch of beer is 7-8 hours. If the brewing batch is 2 batches per day, a hot water tank/hot liquor tank can be added.

Two vessels combination beer brewing system,just for the mash system.Mash/kettle tun+lauter/whirlpool tun+hot liquor tank,the accessories like heat exchanger used to cooling the hot wort,and the yeast addition tank.

In this way, the hot water tank assumes the role of Mash tun boiling water, saving part of the time, and the two batches of beer brewing only need about 12 hours.

Fermentation tanks are where the magic happens. It’s important to have a precisely built vessel to condition your beer as it ferments. WEAMC offers fermentation tanks with ultra-precise welding and polishing, complete traceability, and material exactness to meet all international safety standards. From small, pub-size fermenters to towering outdoor tanks, we have the manufacturing capability and expertise to custom-build fermentation tanks of all sizes.

The production of beer is divided into two parts, the heating part and the cooling part. The two parts are Mash and fermentation. Mash needs to be heated and boiled to dissolve the sugar, protein and enzymes in the malt into the water to form wort. After filtering, spin down, and boil to form a clear wort. Then it is simply filtered and pumped into the fermentation tank through a pump for cooling.

The heating of this part requires electric coil heating or steam boiler heating. WEMAC provides customers with different heating methods such as gas steam, liquefied natural gas boilers, direct-fired heating boilers, etc. according to the different energy supply of customers in different regions. Customers can choose according to the energy cost and supply convenience of the bar site.

For the refrigeration part, we provide quick-cooling glycol refrigerators and cold water tanks. The cold water is pumped into the fermenter jacket through a cold water pump to cool the wort. After about 2 weeks of fermentation time, the beer fermentation is complete, and the fresh beer is ready to drink.
