Overview

Designed for compact pilot operations and hospitality venues, this integrated 3BBL system combines a stainless-steel brewhouse, multiple fermentation tanks and finishing equipment in a space-efficient layout. The package centralizes core process stages—mashing, lautering, boiling, fermentation and bright beer conditioning—into a turnkey solution that supports consistent small-batch production and repeatable recipe development.

Core Components and How They Work Together

The 2-vessel brewhouse (mash/lauter tun + kettle/whirlpool) is fabricated from SUS304, giving corrosion resistance and hygienic surfaces appropriate for professional brewing. Electric heating with independent PID control provides precise mash and boil temperature management. The lauter system features a false bottom with a grain out door and a raking arm to optimize wort clarity and improve lautering efficiency, reducing stuck-mash risk and enabling faster turnaround between batches.

Fermentation and Conditioning

The package includes three 3BBL conical fermenters constructed from SUS304 with dimple jacket cooling. These fermenters support controlled temperature fermentation and allow for efficient yeast collection and trub separation. A dedicated 3BBL bright beer tank rated to 2 bar includes a carbonation stone for gentle, controlled carbonation and pressure transfer—ideal for serving directly or packaging small volumes.

Process Controls and Utilities

Digital control cabinet and temperature probes give operators accurate process feedback and repeatable control over fermentation profiles and mash schedules. The cooling system, comprising a chiller, glycol water tank and circulation pump, ensures stable temperature control across vessels. Sanitary SUS304 piping, butterfly valves and tri-clamp fittings maintain hygienic fluid paths and simplify disassembly for cleaning and maintenance.

Sanitation and CIP

A 2-tank CIP system with electric heating enables effective automated cleaning cycles for the brewhouse and fermenters without disassembly. The CIP layout reduces water and chemical usage while ensuring that heat and flow parameters meet recommended sanitation standards—key to producing consistent, high-quality beer batch after batch.

Key Benefits

• Turnkey small-scale production: Integrates mash tun, brew kettle, fermenters and bright tank into a compact footprint for pilot breweries and hospitality venues.
• Material and hygiene: SUS304 construction across all wetted parts for longevity and food-grade sanitation.
• Precision control: PID-regulated electric heating and digital temperature monitoring support reproducible recipes and process optimization.
• Operational efficiency: False bottom and raking arm in the lauter tun enhance wort runoff and reduce lautering time.
• Consistent fermentation: Dimple jacket cooling provides even temperature control to meet diverse yeast demands.

Applications and Ideal Users

This system is tailored for pilot brewing, brewpubs, restaurant microbreweries and craft bars that need reliable small-batch production. It's also suitable for R&D teams developing new recipes, educational breweries, and entrepreneurs preparing to scale. Operators seeking a robust fermentation tank, efficient brew kettle, and versatile mash tun in one modular package will find this configuration particularly valuable.

Ordering, Delivery and Support

Typical delivery time is 40–45 working days with standard export packaging. The system arrives ready for site integration; on-site utility requirements should include electrical supply compatible with the unit's electric heating and chiller demands, as well as glycol supply connections. Routine maintenance guidance includes verifying sanitary seals, regular CIP cycles, and scheduled checks on PID calibration and pump performance to maintain production uptime.

Final Considerations

Choosing this 3BBL package delivers a compact, professionally specified equipment set where the fermentation tank, brew kettle and mash tun are engineered to work together. The emphasis on stainless construction, precise temperature control and integrated sanitation reflects best practices for small-scale commercial brewing—helping operators produce cleaner wort, predictable fermentations and customer-ready beer with efficient workflow.
