Custom designs

There are of course many hybrids of the above systems, and if those listed here seem not to suit your requirements then please speak to me direct. Creating breweries from new materials obviously gives the ability to produce an infinite number of variables in the sizes of the vessels.

Gas and steam fired systems can be quoted separately.

Mirror finish stainless steel cladding on the brewing vessels, can be quoted separately. For mill finish stainless steel cladding add 8% to the prices of the 4, 6 and 8 barrel breweries. Larger breweries will be quoted separately.

2.5 BBL	6 BBL	12 BBL

Area Requirements

Area requirements obviously differ with each brewery. Ideally the brewery should be split into two distinct areas, one for the 'brewhouse' and the other for the fermenting room. Most breweries can be squeezed into suitable areas. If space or access is a problem then please contact me and I'm sure we will be able to come to some configuration to fit.

We have designed and installed small area installations.
For example - the brewhouse vessels (hot liquor tank, mash tun, copper) + heat exchanger, three pumps and pipework into areas

* 3.1m x 1.5m for a 4 barrel
* & 4.9m x 1.7m for a 6 barrel

Please note that these restrictions do not make for an ideal, easy to operate system, and will carry an install premium.

Minimum production quantities of all the breweries specified here is about 30% of total capacity.

4 BBL Brewery

There will also be a requirement for additional areas for cask washing, malt store, cold room (optional), and empty cask storage.

If your requirement is for the 'boutique' style installation as seen in many continental and North American brew pubs then we will more than happy to review your specification and submit a quotation for the work.

Additional considerations

If not already specifically included above (20 and 40 BBL Breweries), our standard installations do not include:-

• Casks and cask washing facilities
  
• Delivery vehicle / carriage costs
  
• Building work including exit holes for the copper chimney

As a general guidance the minimum set up cost you should expect for the total installation of a potential brewery will be about two to two half times the costs itemised above.

On the plus side you should be able to produce a quality 4.0% ABV ale for about £0.33p a pint duty paid.
