How the Turnkey Beer Brewing System Works
- Grain Milling: The malt mill crushes raw grains at 200–300 kg/hr to improve sugar extraction for the 500L brewing system.
- Mashing and Lautering: The combined mash/lauter tun converts grist into wort and separates clean wort from spent grains.
- Boiling and Hopping: The brew kettle boils the wort for 60–90 minutes, adding hops to achieve ideal bitterness and aroma.
- Whirlpool and Cooling: The whirlpool tank removes trub, and the plate heat exchanger cools wort to fermentation temperature.
- Fermentation: Cooled wort flows into fermenters, where yeast converts sugar to alcohol in 7–14 days.
- Maturation and Packaging: Beer matures for better flavor and then enters the filtering, carbonation, and packaging stages.
