Cask Global Canning Solutions - the company that invented micro-canning for craft brewers - is now helping brewers package more than just beer. The company’s new and unique Micro-Automated Canning System (mACS) features an all-star list of features and new package-size and beverage-type flexibility. “With this machine,” company founder Peter Love says, “brewers can quickly shift to new can sizes for their current products, or jump from beer and cider to uncarbonated beverages such as cold- brew coffee and wine.” Dead Armadillo Craft Brewing (Tulsa, Oklahoma) is now using an mACS to can its beer and something new. “When you add a liquid nitrogen doser to the mACS,” says Todd Phillips, Dead Armadillo’s Director of Operations, “you can use it to can coffee. So after many months of R&D, we’re entering the nitro cold-brewed coffee market with some friends at a local coffee roaster. It's a brave new world for us that wouldn't have been possible without Cask.” “The mACS supports a larger array of can sizes than any line we have ever seen,” Phillips adds, “and we can change from can sizes, lid formats, and product types in just a few minutes, with minimal effort.” Love says a more competitive market is driving US brewers to add new revenue streams. He thinks UK brewers are getting the same idea - Cask has just placed an mACS with a UK brewer (an announcement is coming soon) and is fielding calls from other UK breweries looking to expand their packaging options and beverage lists. “With its high-performance technology and unique ability to be equipped with automated components,” Love says, “the mACS enables brewers to scale up their canning automation and grow and diversify.” 64 BREWING & BEVERAGE INDUSTRIES BUSINESS www.drink-it.com For more information visit: www.cask.com For more information visit: Drink-IT Stay ahead of the competition with Drink-IT STAND 32 BeerX 2018 PREVIEW Cask Brewing Systems Craft brewers diversify with new Cask Canning System STANDs 113,114 64_Layout 1 13/02/2018 07:56 Page 1
