Build me a 1500L two vessels micro craft beer brewery 

The picture shows the two vessels craft beer brewhouse,the reason why it is called two vessels is that,the mash tun and kettle tun are in the same tank,the same tank with the function of mashing and boiling.

The other vessel is the combination of lauter tun and whirlpool tun,the bottom of the two tanks are divided by a flase bottom,it plays an role of filtering.

mash/kettle tun and lauter/whirlpool tun are all equipped with stirrer in the top,which makes it more uniform when mashing and boiling when using the 1500L beer brewery.

The two tanks are supported by a stainless steel platform, and the bottom of the steel plate is specially treated with anti-skid patterns.

Plate heat exchanger in 1500L two vessels micro craft beer brewery

The heat exchange area is about 100 square meters. One section is connected to hot wort and one section is connected to cold water or tap water, which can effectively reduce the wort temperature from 80℃ to 15℃, providing the first section of cooling, and the wort after cooling is pumped in The fermentation tank realizes secondary cooling under the action of the refrigeration jacket of the fermentation tank.

Side spend grain square spot,Flange threaded connection,there is a rubber gasket inside,no dead angle remains.

when the mashing and grain rinsing is finished,using the rake to remove the spent grain from the false bottom,The spent grain can be used for animal feed and fertilizer recycling,each batch of 1500L produces about 500kg.
