The integrated wort cooler by Brewiks

The wort cooler - an essential device in modern breweries, used to quickly and efficiently cool the hot wort to the optimal temperature for the subsequent fermentation process after the boiling process. This process is crucial to prevent the growth of unwanted microorganisms and ensure the quality of the beer.

The integrated tube heat exchanger offers numerous advantages over conventional plate heat exchangers and is specifically designed to make your brewing processes more efficient and hygienic.



Operation and Material

Our built-in wort cooler is made of high-quality stainless steel and operates on the counterflow principle. The wort flows through the inner tube while the cooling water is circulated in the opposite direction through the outer tube. This design ensures efficient cooling and maximum heat transfer.

Maintenance and Cleaning

An essential advantage of the tube heat exchanger is its simple maintenance and cleaning. In contrast to plate heat exchangers, which can quickly clog and grow due to small gap dimensions caused by construction, our system does not require special maintenance and is easy to clean. This saves time, reduces operating costs, and significantly reduces the risk of infection.

Integration into the Brewiks system

The tubular heat exchanger is seamlessly integrated into the wall of the wort kettle and is thermally separated from the heating circuit by insulation. This allows heating to start again while the wort is still being cooled. The hot cooling water generated during wort cooling can be collected directly in the mash tun and used for the next brew, saving both time and energy.
