Something You Need To Know When Choosing A Start Up Brewery Equipment


 
When deciding to open a brewery, there are other considerations besides location and operating license. You also need to consider what kind of brewery equipment to purchase. There are many factors to consider when purchasing brewery equipment. Such as size, number of containers, heating source, wort cooling and other issues.
 
Beer equipment mainly produces unfiltered draft beer. Brewers use unique brewing techniques and unique flavors to attract consumers. Usually, this beer production equipment will be placed where consumers drink directly. Such as restaurants, bars, hotels, tourism, shopping malls, etc. The entire beer brewing equipment can also be placed behind a transparent glass partition. This allows customers to directly observe the entire brewing process. This is a great functional design solution and a very novel marketing tool.
 
When deciding to purchase brewery equipment, you first need to understand what materials the equipment is made of. Generally speaking, brewery equipment can be made of 304 stainless steel. If your requirements are higher, you can choose copper or 316 stainless steel for manufacturing. Of course, the price is more expensive than 304 stainless steel. In addition, the thickness of the stainless steel plate also needs to be paid attention to. Some beer equipment manufacturers incorrectly mark plate thickness. For example, the manufacturer describes the use of 3mm thick stainless steel plates in the document, but actually uses 2.5mm thick stainless steel plates.
 
Generally speaking, beer equipment manufacturers will recommend the number of beer containers for you based on production capacity and daily output. However, you can also ask the manufacturer to customize shipping quantities for you. Additionally, the more ships there are, the higher the price is likely to be. The most important thing is to choose the beer equipment that suits you.
 
First, you need to determine the size and scalability of your brewery. The size of the brewery is primarily determined by budget and expected daily production. Expected daily production will affect the size of brewery equipment you need to purchase and the number of fermenters you need. The higher the daily output, the higher the price. Also, if you have a limited budget but are very optimistic about the market prospects. Then you can first choose small brewery equipment that can be expanded.
 
Then the size of the venue will also affect the size of the brewery. The larger the brewery's capacity, the more space it will require. For example, if you buy a relatively large brewery, but the space cannot accommodate it, then the equipment cannot be used. Professional beer equipment manufacturers can design your brewery according to your production capacity and site conditions. This includes equipment layout drawings and equipment design drawings.
