Description
1000 L Brewhouse for Microbrewery Production
A 1000 L system suits breweries planning 8-12 brews per week or pilot batches before scaling. We build it around your beer styles, steam or electric heating, and cellar tank count. The brewhouse can combine mash/lauter, boil/whirlpool, plate cooling, and transfer piping on a compact skid. For ales and lagers, matching fermentation capacity and cooling area matters more than adding extra vessels.
Materials and fabrication
Product-contact parts normally use SUS304; 316L is available for high-chloride water or aggressive cleaning cycles. Shell thickness is typically 3 mm for the brewhouse and 4 mm for pressure-rated fermenters. We TIG-weld internal seams, then pickle and passivate them. Interior surfaces are polished to Ra 0.8 um or better where wort contact occurs. Dimple jackets are pressure-tested before insulation and cladding. Manways, sample valves, racking arms, and CIP spray balls are positioned for access, not just appearance.
Typical configuration
- 1000 L batch brewhouse with mash/lauter, kettle/whirlpool
- Plate heat exchanger and wort aeration option
- 1000 L or 2000 L fermenters with cone and cooling jacket
- CIP pump, vessel, and hard-piped transfer lines
- Manual, semi-automatic, or PLC control

Selection notes
Small brewpubs often run a 1000 L brewhouse with 2-4 fermenters and serve beer fresh; commercial microbreweries need more fermenter headspace for lagering and packaging. Use conical fermenters when you need yeast recovery and dry hopping. A flat-bottom tank can work for short primary fermentation but limits pressure and harvesting. Confirm ceiling height, floor load, drain location, and glycol chiller capacity before layout.
FAQ
Can the brewhouse run 1000 L consistently? Yes, with matched heating and wort cooling. Actual yield depends on grain bill and evaporation.
Why use 316L instead of 304? It helps with chloride exposure and some cleaning regimes; 304 remains practical for most brewery water.
How is CIP handled? We position spray balls in vessels and supply a CIP pump/tank; piping should avoid dead legs.
What do we need for a quote? Beer types, batch size, tank count, utilities, and floor plan are enough to start.
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

It was quite a big job to put the distiller together, so I asked a friend to help me, and I managed to get it done in just eight hours. I’m really pleased with it – it looks brilliant.Ryan Murphy
