The Brewtools System

The Pro Series Brewing Systems are designed for maximum flexibility. There are many ways of using the systems based on personal preference, what kind of accessories you have and how your brewing area is set up. Below, we will explain the principles of the system and some of the possibilites it gives you.

The tank and malt pipe are built from SS304 stainless steel with a thickness of 1.0/1.2mm. All outlets and ports on the tanks and valves are Tri-Clamp for maximum flexibility. The flanges and steel parts are cast in SS304 stainless steel, and CNC machined. The pump features a 24V brushless motor. It's quiet and powerful and the speed is controlled from the touch-screen. All tubes are 16x25mm food grade high quality silicone with high transparency. The entire system is designed and built to withstand years of use.

The basic principle in the system is a tank with a conical bottom with heating elements, a temperature sensor, a center pipe that's easily removable, an outlet port on each side and a 3-way valve in the bottom which makes it possible to circulate both over the grain bed and through the lower outlet and counterflow cooler or tube at the same time with full flow control. This makes it easy to maintain accurate temperatures outside the malt pipe as you circulate the wort around and up through the malt pipe and over the grain bed. The standard dip-tubes has two o-rings that makes them easy to adjust to the desired angle. If you brew with a lot of hops, you can adjust the dip-tube accordingly to prevent too much hops in the circulation and into the fermenter.

The right 3-way valve is used to choose the input for the pump. You can pump from the inlet dip-tube or from a second tank, usually for sparge water. In the standard setup without extra 3-way valves, this valve is also used to pump the wort to the fermenter.
