Purchasing a boiler is one of the most important investments for a brewery. The boiler lies at the heart of your brewery as it supplies all of the steam. The steam provides all the needs for heating up anything in the brewery. Andrew Leman, Timothy Taylors, pictured with his Byworth boiler, says, “The biggest use is for boiling the full volume of beer with the hops. “We have 50 or more uses of steam around the brewery because there’s lots of little tanks and equipment that need heating up for cleaning etc. and to put a little system in for each would be extraordinarily expensive.” Steam is of course, the best heating option. It heats up efficiently and is controlled. Other benefits include: • High-quality dry steam is vital to producing the best quality beer. • If you can afford the upfront capital cost, steam is a lot cheaper than electricity to run. If you have an existing boiler that’s 10-15 years old, then upgrading to a more efficient boiler will also reduce your running costs. As soon as the more efficient operation has paid back your initial cost, you’re laughing!

Three years ago we were privileged to be chosen by ABE to be the UK agents for its compact canning lines and brewhouses and we’ve never looked back. So much so, that we only recently realised that our tally of installations of ABE kit in UK breweries is at 21. It’s really exciting to be involved in helping brewers a few steps along the way in the evolution of their unique brands and businesses. ABE is one-step ahead. It recently launched its new Nitro Canning System for packaging nitro-beer into cans, and the new BrewPilot™ range of brewhouses which are the smallest brewhouses in its complete range. There is also ABE’s new Servo Seamer™ technology for can seamer monitoring and control via the PLC, which allows for real-time feedback and greater adjustment control over the seaming process. There is more to Vigo than meets the eye, however, and we’re keen to spread the word. We’re also UK agents for other renowned manufacturers including CIMEC (bottling equipment), Malek Brautech (kegging equipment); Kreyer (temperature control kit), Bared (cross- flow filters); and STS (labelling machines) and a whole range of semi-automatic equipment from various carefully chosen suppliers. With our in-house team of engineers, we offer full technical support and ongoing back-up for all the equipment we supply. If we can help you with brewing equipment, come and talk to Andy and Rich or Adam and Tanner (from ABE) on our stands (45-47) at BeerX or at the ABE stand at CBC in Nashville.
