August 24, 2024
Introducing our 12HL Three Vessel Brewhouse Brewing System – the heart of any aspiring craft brewery. This system is designed to streamline the brewing process, offering a complete package for mashing, lautering, and boiling.
12HL three vessel brewhouse brewing system is the most important piece of equipment in the wort preparation process, and the brew house generally has multiple functions that integrate the brewing process of mashing, lautering, boiling and whirlpooling.When the size of the brewery exceeds 1,000 litres, many brewers prefer to use a three-vessel brewhouse. This setup increases operational flexibility and allows for various combinations of brewing vessels to accommodate different techniques and recipes. One of its main advantages is the ability to brew two batches at the same time, producing up to 3-4 batches per day, which greatly increases production. The brewery ensures optimum utilisation of the equipment, enabling the brewer to deliver consistent quality and increase the profitability of the business. In essence, it is a scalable and efficient solution for high volume craft beer production.
Beyond the 12HL brewhouse,we provide a full suite of brewing equipment, including fermentation tank, bright beer tanks, water treatment systems, CIP, chillers, malt millers, filters, and kegging equipment etc., ensuring a customized turnkey brewing solution for your operation.
