Description
What a 7 BBL turnkey package includes
A 500 L brewhouse suits pubs and taprooms planning two to four brews a week without building a cellar that outgrows the lease. Ours ships as a working package: mash/lauter tun, kettle, whirlpool, hot liquor tank, plate chiller, transfer pump, hard piping, and the control cabinet. Vessel layout follows your floor plan — we ask for dimensions and drain positions before cutting steel, because a lauter tun set 400 mm too close to the wall becomes a permanent climbing exercise.
Material and fabrication decisions
Shells are SUS304 as standard; wort-contact surfaces can be 316L when your water runs high in chloride or you brew with salted and fruited worts. Kettle bottoms are 4 mm to handle direct firing, shells 3 mm. Interior welds are TIG, ground flush, pickled and passivated, with no lap joints where trub can hide. Gaskets are EPDM by default, silicone where caustic CIP runs hot. Exterior brushed finish; polished kettle band if the brewhouse sits in guest view.
Kettle options are steam (4–6 bar, jacket) or direct fire. Steam gives gentler color pickup on light lagers; direct fire costs less to install where no boiler exists. Whirlpool uses a tangential inlet — keep the rest depth above the outlet or you pull cone into the chiller.

Common questions from buyers
Can the brewhouse feed fermenters later? Yes — we size the chiller and pump with 20% headroom so added 7 BBL unitanks do not starve knockout.
What about CIP? Kettle and tun get spray balls fed from a portable skid; whirlpool needs a rotating head, not a static one.
Steam or electric? Above roughly 10 brews a week, steam. Below that, electric elements are cheaper to run and easier to permit.
Send us batch size, beer styles, planned fermenter count, and your room footprint. We will come back with vessel sizing, heating choice, and a pipe layout that fits.

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.”
