Depending on the brewing process, equipment is categorized into British, American, and German styles. The American style evolved from the British style, and much of this equipment is relatively simple, offering limited flexibility for subsequent operations. Currently, high-end popular preference leans towards German-style equipment. So, what are the components of German-style equipment? What should we pay attention to? Firstly, German-style self-brew beer equipment mainly consists of the following systems:
- Malt Milling System
- Mashing, Boiling, and Filtration System
- Fermentation System
- Temperature Control System
- Refrigeration System
- CIP (Clean-in-Place) Automatic Cleaning System
Here at Hualu, our self-brew beer equipment is meticulously crafted using copper and stainless steel materials. The mash tun features an antique-style copper design, exuding classic elegance and graceful charm. Especially under lighting, the entire set of equipment appears magnificent and remarkably upscale. This equipment typically utilizes electric heating, offering simple operation, no noise, and no pollution. Our company can also customize beer equipment based on the actual conditions of each hotel, making the brewing equipment a tangible asset that enhances the hotel’s standard. Such brewpubs and restaurant-breweries, where beer is brewed and tasted on-site, are increasingly appearing in urban life.
Equipping hotels with fresh beer dispensing systems is an inevitable trend in the future development of the catering industry. As people’s quality of life improves, consumer demand shifts qualitatively towards more nutritious, healthier, more natural, and more enjoyable options. Self-brewed beer, whether in taste, nutrition, or consumption ambiance, is something that even the most premium bottled beers cannot compete with. More importantly, on-site brewing equipment allows for on-site crafting and consumption. It integrates a unique process of brewing in a contamination-free system, without filtration, without high-temperature treatment, and without any additives, truly combining this with 100% malt brewing. Consequently, the taste is naturally purer, fresher, more nutritious, and hygienically more reliable. The production process, especially with no additives, yields a truly authentic, all-natural beer, a true “crème de la crème” among beer products. Simultaneously, the widespread presence of brewpubs in many developed countries worldwide fully demonstrates the development prospects and vitality of the brewpub concept in China.
Placing a set of aesthetically pleasing, luxurious, and impressive brewing equipment in a hotel to brew authentic beer on-site will represent a revolution and a leap forward for China’s catering industry. This is not merely a significant capital investment but, more importantly, a commitment to high technology, as well as a symbol of the hotel’s image and strength. Moreover, it not only showcases the hotel’s image and strength but also strikes a contemporary chord for the integration of Chinese hotels with the rest of the world.
