BREWORX OPPIDUM industrial breweries – technical description

Industrial Minibrewery Breworx Oppidum
breworx-oppidum-j-2000-010-600x450

BREWORX OPPIDUM breweries – They are the industrial big-size breweries with the special brewing system designed for production up to 360 hectoliters of wort per day. The wort brew machine is equipped with six multifunction tanks that allow a parallel production up to six batches of wort at the same time.

BREWORX OPPIDUM brewery of our production has not its name by accident. Oppidum was a Celtic fortress in which the original settlers in the central Europe area did brew predecessor of today beer during years when the wars between the European tribes take a pauses for a moment .

Also the BREWORX OPPIDUM wort brew machine reminds a fortress whose design is not purposeless. The integration of all containers needed for the wort production process into a single unit on a common platform, as well as the complement of the machine with dedicated boiler for boiling wort with hops and separated whirlpool tank allows thanks to the most efficient brew system to produce up to six simultaneously prepared batches of wort at the same day.

 

 

 

BREWORX OPPIDUM brewhouse – the powerful industrial wort brew machine

Breworx Oppidum industrial brewery system - 6000 liters version

Efficient production of beer – this is an economic management of energy, water and labor

The wort brew machine enables the production of up to 5 batches of wort per 24 hours in the production of beer types prepared by the decoction method, or even up to 6 batches per 24 hours in the production of wort using the infusion method.

With easy serviceability of all system tanks of the Oppidum wort brew machine from one platform the brewer´s master in his fortified settlement has a brewing technology constantly under control, without the need of frequent movement around the brewery. The small distance between the brewing and support vessels helps to minimize escapes of heat and it ensures its efficient recovery.

Unlike brewhouses with stand-alone containers the integrated solution of the Breworx Oppidum brewhouse has further advantage of significant savings in space which the brewery occupies, when calculated per hectolitre of beer produced. Planned daily production corresponds with a large-scale fermentation and maturing tanks.

Similar to the brewhouse, in the same area of the brewery in the tanks there can be located substantially more beer than would be possible with a classically solved brewery. This makes the area of a brewery cellar maximally used, and allows the production of larger quantities of beer on the layout area.

The wort brew machine BREWORX OPPIDUM includes in standard version :

  • primary mash kettle tank – vessel for mixing of grinded malt grains with warm water and splitting starch to form a sugar solution
  • secondary mash kettle tank – vessel for boiling and for cleave the starch to form a sugar solution
  • filtration tank – (lauter tun) – vessel with a special sieve for filtering of wort
  • wort storage tank – vessel for temporary storage of hot wort and keeping its temperature
  • wort kettle tank – vessel for boiling of wort with hops
  • whirlpool tank – for centrifugal separation of hop dregs from wort
  • laboratory sink for tests of wort
  • control panel with all control elements
  • platform with stairs
  • all needed pipes and wires connections
  • all needed mechanically and automatically controlled valves and armatures
  • electric switchboard cabinet
  • industrial computer for control of wort brewing process (only version with automatic control system)

Three variants of micro breweries BREWORX OPPIDUM – different fermentation methods

We produce minibreweries BREWORX OPPIDUM in three variants of the main fermentation and arrangement of the tank storage.

Closed fermentationMicrobreweries BREWORX OPPIDUM CF

Fermentation and maturation in sealed cylindrical-conical tanks is an effective and modern way of producing beer, which is highly resistant to contamination of fermenting beverages with unwanted organisms. Precision control of the fermentation and maturation leads to permanent results of constant quality and sensory characteristics of the beer. This scheme of brewery is particularly suitable for the production of top-fermented beers, but it is possible to produce all types of bottom-fermented beer too.

Open fermentationMicrobreweries BREWORX OPPIDUM OF

Fermentation and maturation in open fermentation vats is the traditional way of producing beer, especially for the typical bottom-fermented Czech type of beer . This allows collection of quilts during the fermentation. A fascinating look at many forms and colors of the yeast foam will be appreciated by guests on excursions to the brewery. This scheme of brewery is suitable only for the production of bottom-fermented beers. Production of top fermented beer in open fermentation vats is quite demanding and is therefore not recommended .

Open and closed fermentationMicrobreweries BREWORX OPPIDUM OCF

The combined solution enables production of bottom and top-fermented beer. Minibrewerie contains of open fermentation tubs (optimal for the traditional method of bottom-fermented beers) and cylindro-conical tanks (particularly suitable for the production of top fermented beers). Beer maturation takes place in lager tanks, or it is possible to use instead of lager tanks other cylindro-conical tanks for maturation process. The solution particularly suitable for restaurant minibreweries where the brewer plans to manufacture both bottom and top fermented beers .

CONTROL SYSTEM FOR BREWERY BREWORX OPPIDUM

Control system for brewery BreworxI . FACS – Semi automatic control system :

The semi-automatic control of the brewhouse with the support of PLC with most operations controlled from the central control panel with controls and sensing elements. The control panel is designed as a touchscreen – centrally are controlled motors, heating and opening and closing several important valves on the media pipes. The most valves and flaps on the brewhouse pipe system is controlled manually.

 

II . ACCS – Fully automatic control system :

Automatically controlled brewhouse – with most computer- controlled operations – according to the specifications from a central control panel. The control panel is designed as a touchscreen. The brewer selects the recipe and starts the program that fully controls the production process. The brewer controls it and performs laboratory tests, treats abnormal conditions and ensures the preparation and the brewing of raw materials for the process.
