Description
Built around the batch, not the brochure
A 1000L, 1500L or 2000L brewhouse package is usually bought because the brewery has outgrown pilot batches but is not ready for a full industrial line. The vessels need to fit a real floor plan, work with the steam or electric heat source on site, and leave enough room for operators to dry-hop, harvest yeast and clean. We size the mash tun, kettle, whirlpool and fermenters around your brew length and expected turns per week.
Our brewery systems use SUS304 for product contact where the process allows, with SUS316L available for high-chloride or more aggressive cleaning regimes. Welds are ground and pickled where needed, and internal surfaces are polished to a sanitary finish. Jackets are dimpled or coil type depending on vessel size and cooling demand. Every tank is pressure-tested, and relief valves are sized to the working pressure before shipment.
What matters in daily operation
Temperature control is not a luxury on a commercial system. Fermentation heat must be removed steadily, or yeast performance drifts and aroma changes. We calculate jacket area from tank volume and the expected cooling load, not from a generic chart. CIP is designed as a circuit: spray ball, pump, return line and chemical dosing need to work with the tank geometry. Poor CIP access is one of the most common reasons for off-flavors and repeat cleaning.
| Item | Range |

| Material | SUS304 or SUS316L |
| Fermenter bottom | Conical or dish bottom |
| Cooling | Dimple jacket or coil |
| Cleanability | CIP spray ball and sanitary fittings |
Selection notes
Small brewpubs often favor 1000L with two or three fermenters and simple glycol control. Regional breweries moving toward 2000L need more jacket area, larger CIP capacity and better access for dry-hopping. A conical fermenter helps with yeast harvest and trub removal, but it adds height, so check ceiling clearance before confirming the layout.
FAQ
Do I need conical fermenters? Use them when yeast recovery and dry-hopping matter. Dish-bottom tanks suit simpler ales and space-limited rooms.
Can the system run on single-phase power? Small packages can, but heating method and vessel size determine the final electrical load. We confirm the site supply before quoting.
How is CIP connected? The CIP pump feeds a spray ball through the tank top; returns go to the drain or recovery tank. Piping uses sanitary clamps for beer, CIP and glycol circuits so lines can be broken down without cutting welds.
Tell us your batch size, beer type, number of fermentation tanks and available space. We can recommend the tank volume, cooling area and configuration for your brewery.

Although there were a few minor issues, thanks to Polly’s help, it looks brilliant and has brought my little distillery quite a few new customers.
Very good！！I see now in my texting to you that in my excitement over having the installation here in the USA I totally forgot to give you and the company of ACE a very big compliment on the quality of the whole Installation!! It all looks fabulous and the way you packed it in the container was extraordinary!! I am very impressed with your company and want to say a big thank you to everybody who worked on my order!!
We have been using this still for a few batches now making whiskey, gin and a few other spirits and we are very happy with the results so far. The gear works well and gives good control during distillation. The spirit comes out clean and consistent from batch to batch and we have gotten the flavor profile we were looking for. It has also been easy to operate and maintain. It has been a great addition to our distillery and I’d definitely recommend it to other craft distillers looking for reliable equipment.”
Polly is the man! I highly recommend him and this products they produce! I’m very satisfied. she communicates very well and the quality of workmanship is excellent! Shipping was exceptional. Thannks Polly and team
