The project marks the third successful collaboration between METO and our customer in Hokkaido. Their journey with us began with a complete set of 300L small microbrewery equipment, later expanded by adding fermenters, and has now evolved into a full upgrade—replacing their original brewhouse with a 600L microbrewery system. This progression clearly reflects the steady growth of their business and their rising demand for higher production capacity.The new 600L microbrewery equipment is designed for both efficiency and scalability, ensuring consistent beer quality while meeting growing production needs.
Configuration List
Part 1: 600L 2-Vessel Brewhouse (MT/LT + KT/WT)
- Mash Lauter Tun: 600L
- Kettle Whirlpool Tank: 900L
- Hot Water Tank: 1500L
- Heat Exchanger: 5M²
- Yeast Adding Tank
- Glass Grant Tank
- Pipeline Hops Back
Part 2: Malt Milling Unit
- Malt Miller: 500kg/hr
Part 3: Fermentation Unit
- Fermentation Tanks: 600L
This upgraded system provides enhanced brewing flexibility, higher efficiency, and the ability to maintain stable quality even with larger batch sizes. For breweries scaling from small batch production, such microbrewery equipment offers the perfect balance between artisanal brewing and commercial demand.
The transition from a 300L brewhouse to a 600L small microbrewery system demonstrates how upgrading the right equipment can accelerate business growth. For craft brewers seeking consistency, efficiency, and scalability, investing in professional microbrewery equipment is the key to long-term success.

- Conducting hands-on training during actual brewing sessions
- Teaching proper CIP (clean-in-place) procedures between batches
- Training staff on the safe handling of cleaning and sanitizing chemicals
- Reviewing lock-out/tag-out steps before performing any maintenance
- Clarifying the use of emergency shut-off procedures
- Outlining daily, weekly, and monthly preventative maintenance tasks
- Instructing personnel on how to record tank levels, temperatures, and gravities
- Covering troubleshooting steps for common issues such as leaks or clogs
- Scheduling periodic refresher trainings to reinforce knowledge and best practices
With comprehensive training in place, breweries can ensure smooth operations, consistent beer quality, and a safe working environment for all staff.
