Example Brewery

From small to big

Pub 200-litre

Fermentation in unpressurised storage tanks with jacket cooling, maturation in kegs, dispensing close to the brewery or in-house. Ideal for restaurants, pubs/pubs for direct serving.

Restrictions

Larger number of kegs required for maturing time, beer sales in kegs or direct on tap, bottling difficult.

Advantages

Unpressurised filling from the fermentation tank into kegs, no pressure tanks required, low-cost entry, good naturally cloudy beers. Selling beer directly on tap offers a full margin.

Brewery restaurant 200-litre

Fermentation in a pressurised conical tank with jacket cooling, fermentation and maturation in a tank. Then filled into kegs, bottles or directly into the bar. Ideal for pubs that want to offer sales in bottles or kegs as well as serving their own beer.

Restrictions

Investment in pressurised tanks and filling system with back pressure from pressurised tank into bottles/kegs necessary.

Advantages

Fermentation and maturation in one tank. Beers can be filled into bottles/kegs with better clarification and ready matured for better shelf life and are therefore suitable for retail sale.

Pub 500-litre

Fermentation in unpressurised storage tanks with jacket cooling, maturation in kegs, dispensing close to the brewery or in-house. Ideal for larger restaurants, pubs/pubs for direct serving.

Restrictions

Larger number of kegs required for maturing time, beer sales in kegs or direct on tap, bottling difficult.

Advantages

Unpressurised filling from the fermentation tank into kegs, no pressure tanks required, low-cost entry, good naturally cloudy beers. Selling beer directly on tap offers a full margin.

Microbrewery 500-litre

Fermentation in a pressurised conical tank with jacket cooling, fermentation and maturation in a tank. Then filled into kegs, bottles or directly into the bar. Ideal for larger pubs or microbreweries that serve their own beer and/or sell it in bottles or kegs.

Restrictions

Investment in pressurised tanks and filling system with back pressure from pressurised tank into bottles/kegs necessary.

Advantages

Fermentation and maturation in one tank. Beers can be filled into bottles/kegs with better clarification and ready matured for better shelf life and are therefore suitable for retail sale.

Brewery 1000-litre

Fermentation and maturation in a pressurised conical tank. After unpressurised main fermentation in the conical tank, the deaeration tap is closed, yeast is drawn off at the bottom and then secondary fermentation/maturation is carried out under pressure in the same tank. The beer is then filled into kegs or bottles. Ideal for breweries that also serve their own beer, but mainly sell it in bottles or kegs.

Restrictions

Investment in pressure tanks and filling system with back pressure from pressure tank into bottles/kegs necessary compared to unpressurised fermentation.

Advantages

Fermentation and maturation in one tank. Beers can be filled into bottles/kegs with good clarification and ready matured for better shelf life and are therefore suitable for sale in the trade.

Brewery 1000-litre Pro

Fermentation and maturation in a pressurised conical tank. After unpressurised main fermentation in the conical tank, the deaeration tap is closed, yeast is drawn off at the bottom and then secondary fermentation/maturation is carried out under pressure in the same tank. The beer is then filled into kegs or bottles. Ideal for breweries that also serve their own beer, but mainly sell it in bottles or kegs. Here, the insulation of the tanks is tightly welded and cooling also takes place in the cone area.

Restrictions

Investment in pressure tanks and filling system with back pressure from pressure tank into bottles/kegs necessary compared to unpressurised fermentation.

Advantages

Fermentation and maturation in one tank. Beers can be bottled/kegged with good clarification and finished maturation for better shelf life and are therefore suitable for retail sale. Tank fully insulated and insulation is tightly welded. Cooling also in the cone.
