How a 7 BBL Commercial Brewery Works - Full Tour | How it's made 

Definitely a cool video to see how it's done at the next level. Thanks for sharing. Cheers!

Brilliant! From a homebrewer perspective, seeing how things scale up is really fascinating. Cheers!

Awesome thanks for taking the time to do the video. Great work and I expect it's great beer.

I really appreciate this video and all the content on your channel. I do have a dream of starting my own small brewery eventually. Been working on getting myself better educated and this is great. I keep thinking that one of these days when the world gets back to normal, I'd like to make my way over the mountain and visit you guys.

This was great! I'm relatively new to brewing, but loving it.

As an active homebrewer and an assistant brewer/ cellerman it’s always fascinating to see what other breweries have done to make their space work. great video cheers 👍

Thanks, it is nice to see working setups. This really gives me some good ideas.

Thank you for all of the helpful information!!

Great video as always. I did the great circle of homebrew videos, yours are the only ones I still find original. Please continue the good work!

I was hoping you would show this! Really interesting thanks Logan

Working now on starting my own, very good video

Great tour! Love the video

Great video. I will have my brewery one day! Thanks for making the video.

Loved the tour! Thank you for sharing the process you go through to make liquid gold. 🍺

This is a great tour! I’ve only been on tours at Wineries and Distilleries - but I’ve been home-brewing beer for years.

I like your videos guys but this has by far been my favourite. So much info in 10 minutes, thanks!

Awesome tour, thanks so much!

Thank you for your videos and content, it is definitely appreciated!!!

I just came across you guys, as a homebrewer, I'm wanting to start a brewery at some point and you guys are providing a bunch of great information and perspective. Thank you so much for your hard work!

Great video! It’s been about a decade since I’ve brewed a commercial batch and just partnered with a guy that will hopefully help me open my own place in the next 12-24 months. I’m the meantime I’m going to start brewing on his old 2 barrel system on his license until I get to that point and have been really enjoying your channel

Awesome video! Thank you!

great video from the beard. Thanks! having my own brewery is a dream haha

Just discovered this channel and I must say its a huge amount of great info you guys have built! I reciently upgrated my brewhouse from 5 gallon carboys to a couple of 200L unitanks, is there any video in particular you would recomend me to get the hang of this new step? Thank you in advance for this awesome project!

Great stuff. Thanks

Great job, nice presentation

Thank you for a behind the curtains your. I've had the notion of starting a brewery for a year or so. I do appreciate seeing examples of breweries ad how they operate! Thank you guys.

Why am I not surprised that when I searched for multi-bbl brewing videos you guys were at the top of the list? Having only done 5-6 gal brews over the past two years, I'm unexpectedly going to have the opportunity to run some brews on a 5-7bbl system in the near future. I've got a lot of learning to do so I don't make a fool of myself. (and don't waste other people's money on bad brews) I'd really appreciate more videos on moving from small-batch home brewing to larger, more ambitious brews. For example, I'd like to know the best way to scale up from the small batch recipes that have been most successful for me to the new system. I know that grains and water volumes are pretty straight forward, but I have heard that hop-scaling is not so linear. (?) Thanks, Logan! (Wherever you are!)

Love your channel guys.

Always good stuff from you guys! I am interested in the requirements for dumping... dumping the grub from the fermenters, to when your cleaning. Is there a process where you have to dilute to a certain PH or what’s the process? Thanks again!

Great content, I look forward to following your RU-vid channel.

Nice one Logan, very interesting.

Thanks for the tour. Would love to see one of your brew days !

Great job!

good video , im just starting out home brewing so tyring to learn as much as poss

Thanks for this bud!

Cool vid, Thanks Logan!

I love how pro brewing is so similar to homebrewing, just with a lot more money in ingredients and equipment at stake haha.

Awesome video! I like how you explained the different pieces of equipment and what they're used for. I've home brewed for a few years, and worked at a major soft drink company doing everything from picker to machine operator to maintenance tech. Im starting to see it as schooling, giving me ideas for things to include and avoid if I were to start a brewery. Any suggestions on how to get loans for the site and equipment? Also just wondering, why can't you use the gylcol system to chill wort rather then a plate chiller?

I love your guys videos

Awesome video bro. I would really appreciate you to tell me if you filter your beer, or how do you do to not to have yeast residues in the bottles after carbonation? And how long does it take to ferment and mature your beer before carbonation? Thank u

I'm in talks going from homebrewing to being a brewer on a 7bbl system; actually meeting with some owners next week. I need to get familiar with the system of course and there will absouletly be a learning curve. I've done some collaborations with breweries on 3bbl and 2bbl systems so I'm pretty familiar with the process. When it comes to cleaning the system, about how long would you say your full cleaning regiment takes after a brewday or prior to one? Amazing video by the way, awesome information.

Great job man! I’m one of the investors with CRAZY MOON! Thanks for the info!

Great video. I’m interested in talking to you about the equipment as I’m setting up a brew house in Australia and need to know where the equipment is best sourced.

Very interesting. Cheers!

I am flirting with the idea to move from homebrew to a brewpub... so this vid its a grate way to understand how big is the leap ...!

Great tour, I'm helping a guy get his 10bbl system going now. I'm just the electrician and home brewer so I need all the process knowledge I can get to understand how it all works.

Tha was awesome …thanks so much . Have you guys switched out guys in the new videos ?

Awesome stuff, thanks for the behind the scenes peak. Mash rakes are pricey as hell, double the price of the rig without

Liking that Chop & Brew sticker on the cooler door! Looks like a nice little brewery, but looks like it can be a little tight for workflow. This is, however, coming from a cellarhand at a brewery with a 2 BBL brewhouse and seven 2 BBL fermentors and a brite tank packed into a rather small raised brew deck area, so it's obviously the first thing I notice at a brewery.

Awesome vid, cheers o/

great video!

Wonderful Brewhouse!! 🇵🇾 Greetings from Paraguay 🇵🇾 One question, how do you do the "Mash Out" in this equipment?

Really awesome tour would be interested in what your cleaning procedure persist of in terms of best way to clean fermentors / kegs and safety when doing so! Great vid 🍺

Very nice setup! Next step, own full-time brewhouse :))

Thanks so much for this tour! I'm an author working on a romance story set in a brewery, and your video was a huge help.

Great stuff guys! Would love to see an active brewday in the commercial brewery. Cheers!

thanks for sharing!

Wow That is a lot. I have friends and family always trying to encourage me to go big but..... It looks F U L L time. Not to mention the Financials to get started. It looks intriguing though.

As always great presentation and brewery tour Logan. Think we call them Gypsy brewers here in the UK, individuals who brew on other people's brew plants.

Great Video thanks heaps, i am a home brewer using a grainfather g70 and now wanting to take the next step up to a 1bbl or a 2 bbl brew house was wondering if you could help me on the set up please

Working on starting a cidery/meadery in 2024 so would definitely appreciate any insight you can provide. I've got the licensing and tax rates down (cider is unnecessarily complicated for taxing) Could use advice on where to establish the brewery, what equipment besides the 10bbl fermenters and pumps I may need, etc.

Great video. We are about to start a private brewery shortly. I would love to ask your advice along the way. We live in South Africa.

Great walkthrough of the brewery - I like the insights on the large scale process. How unusual is it to find coop opportunities for shared equipment?

Curious why you are so diligent about cleanliness of the brew house. I would assume the wort is sterile from boiling. So as long as it is clean enough to not give off bad flavor... is it necessary? I am starting a brewery.

How do you get the first dry hop addition out on a commercial scale? Hop bag? Surely too much floats to use dump valve?

In the process of securing a building in Greer, SC and also looking at the correct equipment build. Would love any advice or tips for a New start brewery.

Do you use one of the pumps to get the beer to the brute tank?

Awesome video! Do you have pumps for transferring from kettle to primary and primary to bright tanks?

Nice brewhouse I'm quite jealous. I'm a small scale 1bbl brewery that's on hold due to COVID lockdown :( Question for you: separate FV's and brite tanks - with hindsight, would you have gone for unitanks? I'm looking to scale up and start a brewpub, unitank seems a logical solution to carbonate, serve and package from.

nice tour i hope i do not sound pitty but vor in vorlauf is pronaunced like the american "four" or like in beFORE greetings from Germany

is the keg cleaning system home made? dig it.

I want to start a nano brewery myself, and want to know what the best equipment size to start with is. I have my recipes dialed in, with the exception of increasing the batch size of the recipe. I am just not sure how to go about getting nano brewery equipment.

1.094 yea buddy!!!!

How big is that space? including the chiller?

That's really cool. What kind of money do you have to pay to use the equipment?

Looking to start a brewery, and need a lot of help. Just thought about it one day and now really diving into the research part but very serious and would like some help!

After being a commercial brewer for the past 8 months I can tell you that if you expect to get 7 BBLs of a packaged product then you need a 10 BBL system. I brew on a 5 BBL system and the owner doesn't understand all the losses involved. depending on the beer we get between 3.5 to 4.5 BBLs.

So even with the new location (homebrew shop/taproom) you’re still doing batches at this location?

Question for anyone, is the hot liquor tank always on? How long to heat it from zero? Is it filled with filtered water? Thanks!!!

Do you guys ever blow CO2 or air through the piping and valves to help speed up the drying process in between brews?

How do I know what commercial beers use GOOD water (either reverse osmosis or spring water)? This seems to be a secret in the beer industry. I love drinking beer but am trying to avoid tap water

Are the Bright Tanks smaller in volume to the fermenters? If so, why? Thanks!

Hi! I am starting a distillery and mead/winery. I would love to consult with you.

Great content. What equation is used to determine the size of a system needed per the neighbor hood you plan on brewing/selling?

Please help me start up a brewery.. my island need one of those..we have none..but my island have many beer drinkers ready to sponsor me..i just need to start..i brew in buckets ..they love it ..but demand is too high ..to remain at the bucket level..thanks

Just gathering information want to open a brewery

So, you are sharing the Hot Liquor Tank, Mash Tun and Boiler and your partners just farm their brewing out to their own brite tanks and Fermenters? I have considered doing a contract only brewing facility, rather than going out an getting the taprooms and all that set up initially. Do you contract out coldroom storage also? Great video...very interesting stuff.

A friend of mine and I are opening one in Oregon. Tips?

What do you do with the hot water that comes out the Plate Chiller?

I'm looking to start a brewery, but don't know where or how to start can you help

I can't wait to watch this one. I would now, but stupid work lol. Wanted to be the first to cheer for this one!

How many sq ft is the brewery? Cheers

Any engineers here care to comment on the potential of a HLT as a battery for solar and/or wind?

Hi, nice video, next time please show us the equipments, too much of your images. Thanks
