The output of beer brewing equipment is limited by the configuration of the saccharification equipment, the capacity and the number of saccharification batches per day; the capacity and quantity of the fermenter, and the fermentation cycle of various types of beer. Different equipment has different requirements for site size, height, water and electricity, and it depends on the actual situation.

Saccharification equipment

(1) Type, size, brewing batch and yield calculation of saccharification equipment

One mashing batch: the mashed wort is filled with the fermenter for fermentation, and the time from the crushing of the malt to the wort entering the fermenter is 7 to 8 hours. The types of home-brewed beer equipment and craft beer saccharification commerical brewing equipment used in hotels, craft breweries, craft breweries, and specialty craft breweries are generally 500L or 1000L saccharification equipment configurations: two-device combination, two-tank three-device combination, two Combination of boiler + hot water boiler. 1-2 batches can be mashed a day. Taking into account factors such as labor cost and labor intensity, it is actually one batch per day.

The brewery-type beer equipment is configured for multi-device saccharification, and the production mode is multi-batch saccharification, which requires shift production to maximize production capacity. Simply speaking, within 24 hours, three saccharification batches can be completed in three-device mashing, and four saccharification batches can be completed in four-device saccharification. The maximum production capacity of a set of beer equipment is mainly determined by the configuration and capacity of the saccharification equipment and the maximum batch capacity of saccharification.

Example: The combination configuration of beer equipment is different, and the daily output is different.

2000L two-device saccharification, the daily output can reach up to 4000L.

2000L three-device saccharification, the daily output can reach up to 6000L.

2000L four-vessel saccharification, the daily output can reach up to 8000L.

Saccharification equipment configuration

(2) Size and quantity of fermentation tanks

The daily output is equal to the volume of the fermenter multiplied by the number of fermenters divided by the number of days in the beer fermentation cycle.

The volume ratio of the saccharification equipment and the fermenter is generally 1:1, 1:2…that is to say, the volume of the fermenter is a multiple of the saccharification.

The fermentation cycle of ale and wheat beer is one to two weeks, and the fermentation cycle of barley and lager beer is 2-4 weeks. If the fermentation cycle is calculated as an average of 12 days, the capacity of the fermentation tank is 500L, and there are 6 fermentation tanks.

Daily output (L) = fermenter capacity (500L) × number of fermenters (6) ÷ beer fermentation cycle (12 days), then the daily output can be calculated as 250L.

If you plan to open or expand the brewery, you can contact Micet Craft directly. Our engineers will design and manufacture brewery equipment according to your brewing process. Of course, we will also provide you with a complete turnkey solution. Also, if you plan to expand the brewery, we will provide you with customized solutions.

 

Some advice on choosing beer brewing equipment

 

Buying craft beer equipment can’t just look at the price

For many purchasers of craft beer brewing equipment, especially those who are just involved in the craft beer industry, many people only compare prices when purchasing beer equipment, only pay attention to the price of beer equipment, and ignore other beer equipment. performance and parameters.

Don’t be fooled by the low price, but the higher the price, the better the quality. The reason why it is proposed not to only pay attention to the price of craft beer equipment is mainly because the quality of the equipment should often be paid more attention to than the price of the equipment. Only the quality of the equipment can make good home-made beer.

The basic principle of beer westminster co equipment is the same, but the specific configuration of some functions is different. Some equipment has a reasonable design and a high degree of automation. It saves time and effort to make beer, and the quality of wine is stable. In order to reduce costs, some equipment cut corners, the operation process of wine making is cumbersome, wastes manpower and material resources, and it is difficult to guarantee the quality of wine. The equipment mainly depends on the material, workmanship and completeness of functions. In addition, it depends on the individual’s purchasing ability. If you have money, you can consider high configuration. After all, higher configuration will save time and effort in the operation process, and the quality of wine is easier to control.

If you do not know brewing, it is better to choose a simple and practical manufacturer with good service. Only by choosing beer equipment with strong brand strength and high quality, coupled with high-quality brewing process and technology, can beer with good taste be brewed and the stable application of beer equipment can be ensured. Choose the equipment that suits you, look at the cost-effectiveness, and look for manufacturers who value quality and keep credibility. On the premise of ensuring quality, cost performance is the top priority, that is, the same price depends on the configuration, the same configuration depends on the price, and the same configuration and price depend on the production process. If the equipment has quality problems, don’t give it away for free. However, high price does not mean high quality. It is safe to do more research and more comparisons.

It can be seen that it is not advisable to pay attention to the price of beer equipment when purchasing craft beer equipment. Only on the premise of good quality equipment can beer with good taste be brewed. The price is low and the quality of equipment is not good. It is still buyers and new craft brewers who are hurting.
