Krones CombiCube B brewhouse

Thursday, 07 January, 2010 | Supplied by: Krones (Thailand) Co Ltd


Compact-sized, frame-based construction and standardised vessels for mashing, lautering and wort-boiling processes, are features of Steinecker’s CombiCube B brewhouse, for an annual production output of up to 150,000 hL.

The combination of different vessels for the brewing process is suitable for small and mid-tier breweries that intend to modernise their kit and for breweries with larger annual outputs that wish to produce seasonal and specialty beers in a separate brewing process, independently of their principal brands. With an output of up to six brews a day, the compact brewhouse can serve here as a complement to the larger systems. Depending on the mashing process selected, the maximum of four vessels in the compact brewhouse can be utilised either as a mash kettle, a mash/wort copper, a lauter tun, or a mash/lauter tun, complemented by the whirlpool.

The vessels feature technological developments from the large-size vessels of Steinecker’s technology: the agitator of the mash kettle, the design of the heating surfaces in the ShakesBeer, the Stromboli Venturi jet for the wort-boiling process and the Pegasus raking blades, which ensure uniform permeability of the grain bed. With vessel sizes of between 2.5 and 3.5 m, the individual brewing processes in the CombiCube B brewhouse are integrated for handling by a single employee. Simple operator interventions are facilitated by the higher-order Botec process control system.

The prefabricated piping system, and its integration into a frame-based construction, mean short commissioning times for the brewery concerned, enabling the brewhouse to be installed on a minimised footprint. With precisely matched vessel sizes, the process steps inside the brewhouse achieve optimised technological harmonisation for brew sizes of 50 to 100 hL. The high quality of the beers and a manageable investment budget are ideally combined in Steinecker’s compact brewhouse concept for users with an annual production quantity of up to 150,000 hL.
