Description
This 1000 L (7 bbl) red copper microbrewery package is built for hotel brewpubs and small craft plants that need a visible brewhouse and repeatable production. We configure it around batch size, steam or electric heating, floor space, and the cellar layout. The copper cladding is a finish layer over a stainless vessel; it is not the wetted surface.
Fabrication and wetted materials
Product contact parts are SUS304 as standard; we switch to 316L where chloride exposure, cleaning chemistry, or customer specification calls for it. Kettle and whirlpool shells are TIG welded, with internal welds ground and polished. Pickling and passivation are available for process surfaces. Red copper cladding is rolled and seamed over the stainless body; thermal movement and access to fittings matter during layout. Gaskets, sight glasses, and valve seats are selected for steam, hot wort, and caustic CIP. We pressure-test jackets and vessels before shipment and set safety valves to the agreed working pressure.
Brewhouse and cellar integration
A 7 bbl batch suits a brewpub with limited cellar space or a production room sending beer to 7 bbl unitanks. Mash/lauter, kettle/whirlpool, hot liquor, plate chiller, pumps, and piping are arranged for gravity or pumped transfer. If the package includes fermenters, jacket cooling area and glycol flow must match fermentation heat load, not just tank volume. CIP routes need enough velocity through spray balls and drains; dead legs cause cleaning problems later. For hotel installations, access paths and ceiling height often decide whether vessels ship as complete units or in sections.

Purchase questions we hear
How do I size the brewhouse? Start with saleable beer per week, not kettle volume. Brewhouse size, fermenter count, and packaging schedule need to work together.
Why control fermentation temperature? Yeast performance and flavor repeatability depend on it. A 7 bbl tank can generate significant heat at peak fermentation, so jacket area and glycol temperature matter.
Do I need conical fermenters? Conical bottoms help yeast harvest and dumping, but bright beer tanks and serving vessels may suit a hotel layout better.
How is CIP connected? Plan CIP supply, return, and drain with short runs and no dead legs. Valve arrangement should let you isolate each vessel without cross-contamination.
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
