Description
Brewhouse configuration from 1000L to 2000L
We build turnkey brewhouses for breweries that need repeatable batches, not showroom equipment. A 1000L, 1500L or 2000L plant usually combines a mash/lauter tun, brew kettle/whirlpool, hot liquor tank, plate chiller, and matched fermentation vessels. The vessel count and layout depend on brews per day, floor space, and whether you package in kegs or cans.
Material choice follows the duty. We use 304 stainless for non-wort-contact tanks and 316L where chlorides or aggressive cleaning make pitting a real risk. Wort-contact surfaces are TIG welded, pickled and passivated, with sanitary clamps and EPDM or silicone gaskets. Internal finish is typically Ra ≤0.8 µm on contact areas; external polishing is cosmetic and should not drive the purchase.
Practical specifications
| Item | Range |
|---|---|
| Batch size | 1000L / 1500L / 2000L |
| Brewhouse vessels | 2-vessel or 3-vessel |
| Heating | Steam, electric, direct fire |
| Material | 304 / 316L stainless |
| Control | Manual, PLC/HMI |
| Fermenter working pressure | 0.2 MPa with relief valve |
| Cooling | Dimple jacket / glycol |
| CIP | Spray ball, pump, dedicated line |
| Connections | Tri-clamp / DIN |
Fermentation cooling depends on jacket area, not tank volume alone. A 2000L unitank in a warm room needs more cooling surface than the same tank in a chilled cellar. We size jackets for crash cooling, not just holding temperature. Relief valves are set to the vessel design pressure and should be checked during commissioning. CIP works only when spray coverage, pump flow, and return line slope are correct; a spray ball alone is not a cleaning system.
Small brewpubs often run 1000L batches with a 2-vessel brewhouse and manual valves to control cost. Commercial plants moving to 1500L or 2000L usually need PLC control, steam heating, and matched fermentation capacity to avoid wort sitting in the chiller. Piping layout, available ceiling height, and glycol supply temperature should be confirmed before fabrication.
FAQ
How do I choose capacity? Start from finished beer volume per week and brews per day. A 2000L brewhouse is not automatically better if fermentation and packaging cannot keep up.
Do I need 316L? Use it for wort contact where cleaning chemicals or water chemistry require better chloride resistance; otherwise 304 is common.
Can we add tanks later? Yes, if utility headers, glycol loop, and floor drains are sized for the final layout.
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
