Copper at entry scale
At 1 ton the copper premium is the smallest absolute amount in the range, which makes it the most common entry point for brewpubs that want the look without committing to a large plant.
Finished for a visible location
Vessels are polished and lacquered, with the frame and pipework finished to match. Where the brewhouse sits behind glass, plan the flue and condensate route as part of the fit-out, not after delivery.
Typical Applications
- Breweries planning around a 1 batch — At 2-3 per day the brewhouse delivers roughly 5,000 hl of finished beer per year on a five-day week, which sets the cellar and packaging requirement downstream.
- Sites with 22 of available floor space — The 2 or 3, copper clad layout fits within 22 m2, and the vessel arrangement determines how much of that space must stay clear for cleaning access.
- Plants committed to steam heating — Steam 0.3 t/h or electric 36 kW is the practical choice here: it removes the boiler room below 2,000 L per batch, while larger sizes recover the cost of steam through faster ramp rates and tighter control.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the lead time for copper cladding?
Four to eight weeks longer than stainless, because cladding is fabricated after the vessels are tested.
Can the lacquer be repaired on site?
Minor scratches can be touched up. Larger areas need re-lacquering, which is normally scheduled every 5-7 years.
What is included with the 1 configuration?
The supply covers the 2 or 3, copper clad set, interconnecting sanitary piping, the control panel and CIP routing, with Steam 0.3 t/h or electric 36 kW as specified. Cellar tanks, packaging and building works are separate scope, so the plant can be sized to your own distribution plan rather than a fixed package.
