There are many beer brewing industries that make different types of beers. But apart from that, some people have also started home beer brewing. However, the method used for brewing at home is different than the one used for brewing beer in industries. The industrial beer brewing equipment is costly. However, home beer brewing equipment is not that costly. There are some sites, which are selling beer brewing equipment at an affordable price. Like this site, https://www.leydenbrewery.com/, which is selling beer brewing equipment for a long time. You will get all sorts of brewing equipment here. So, you do not have to search brewing equipment at different places, as you can get all of them in one place. If you are interested in home brewing, here is all that you need to know.

Kit for beer brewing

The most important thing which you need to get before you start the beer brewing process is to get the beer brewing equipment kit. In this kit, you will find all the steps which are required for brewing beer. Complete instructions are mentioned in this kit so that one can easily start their beer brewing business. They have also shared the details about what all equipment is required for beer brewing. Once you have got the kit, you can then buy the beer brewing related equipment. We have mentioned the names of a few equipment and machines below.

Equipment for boiling

Before starting the fermentation, the boiling process takes place. For this, one needs brew pots, wort chillers, paddles, thermometers, hop filters/infusers, burners and stands, thermometers, spoons, and a few more things. So, get all these things, and read the instructions in the beer brewing kit for making beer.

Equipment for Fermenting

There are many things that are being used in the process of fermentation. The most important thing is the fermentation tank. As fermentation tanks are used for making beer. Without it, one cannot prepare beer. There are a variety of fermentation tanks available in the market. Concrete Fermentation Tanks and Stainless-Steel Fermentations tanks are one of the most commonly used fermentation tanks for preparing beer. Plastic Fermenters are also available in the market these days. Apart from these things, you will also need buckets, carboys, demijohns, funnels, airlocks, barrels, unitanks, conicals, racking canes, flasks, temperature controllers, aeration systems, and many other such things.

For measuring & testing beer

The end of the fermentation process doesn’t mean that beer is fully ready. Certain equipment and scales are being used for checking if the beer is ready or not. Some of them are graduated cylinders, hydrometers, digital scales, chemicals, and testing equipment. Using all the equipment is quite important to check if the beer is ready or more fermenting and processing is required.

For Beer Bottling

Once the beer is being prepared, you will need beer bottles to fill it up in them. Apart from beer bottles, there are many other things also which you need for beer bottling. Some of them are bottle caps, cappers, fillers, brushes, washers, beer bottles, beer bottle labels, racks, and growlers. As we just said above that for preparing beer for personal use, all these things are not required. But as you are planning to do all this for industrial use, so you will need proper beer bottles. Do check the size of the beer bottles before you buy them. Always buy glass bottles for storing beer. Also, get aluminium beer cans for beer canning. To do beer canning, you will also need a machine.

Some Do’s and Don’ts for buying brewing equipment

Whether you are buying the industrial beer brewing equipment or you are buying home beer brewing equipment, do follow these do’s and don’ts.

  • Evaluate the quality of brewing equipment

Before you order any brewing equipment online or buy it offline, do not forget to check its quality. If you have already purchased it before, you will not face any problem. Especially, when you are buying to use it for the long term, do not compromise with the quality. We know that brewing equipment is costly. But even if a small spot of rust will occur on the brewing equipment, it will be of no use. So, check with the seller whether the equipment is corrosion-resistant or not. 

  • Check the reviews about the equipment

You should also read the reviews before buying the beer brewing equipment. By reading reviews, you will know, if it is worth buying or not. 

  • Check the warranty on brewing equipment

Most of the sellers also provide warranty on some of the brewing equipment, so check if the warranty is being provided or not, especially on the fermentation tanks. If there is no warranty on fermentation tanks, do not buy them.

  • Do not buy oversize brewing equipment

If you feel that buying big brewing equipment will help you later on, then remember that it is of no use. Instead, it will create problems in brewing, so buy the brewing equipment of the right size only.
