Built around the business
Commercial brewery equipment for the way you plan to sell beer.
Start with the operating model, expected sales, production schedule, building, and utilities. BREWHA’s commercial BIAC® range gives pilot breweries, taprooms, brewpubs, microbreweries, and distribution-focused producers a compact path from 1.5 to 15 BBL.
Taproom
Turn freshness into the experience.
Produce rotating beer close to the customer and build the equipment plan around direct sales.
Brewpub
Fit brewing around hospitality.
Preserve space for guests, service, food preparation, storage, and the rest of the venue.
Production brewery
Build repeatable output in stages.
Match batch size and fermentation capacity to packaging, distribution, staffing, and sell-through.
Clear commercial benefits
Less equipment complexity. More room to build the business.
The patented BIAC approach combines core brewing and cellar functions around a removable Mash Colander® and a jacketed, insulated 5-in-1 Fermentor.
Use less equipment
Combine core brewing and cellar stages around one integrated vessel platform.
Protect floor space
Reduce vessel duplication and preserve room for guests, storage, packaging, or growth.
Reduce transfers
Keep more of the batch in the 5-in-1 Fermentor through the selected downstream stages.
Control the process
Use electric heat, jacketing, insulation, pressure capability, and compatible controls.
Grow one tank at a time
Add compatible fermentation capacity as sales and the beer menu develop.
The BIAC process
One Mash Colander. One five-function vessel.
Mash inside the removable Colander, lift it to separate the wort, then continue the selected downstream stages in the jacketed conical vessel below.
Mash
Mash grain inside the removable Mash Colander.
Boil
Lift out the grain and boil wort in the vessel below.
Ferment
Cool and ferment without a core vessel transfer.
Condition
Use temperature and pressure control where configured.
Serve
Condition, carbonate, or serve from compatible setups.
Important: the complete system is the production core, not the entire facility. Cooling, water treatment, ventilation, drainage, cleaning, packaging, serving, material handling, and other requirements depend on the brewery plan. See what else your brewery may need →

Modular growth
Add fermentation capacity as demand develops.
A complete BIAC system begins with the shared brewing components and a 5-in-1 Fermentor. Compatible additional fermentors can let the shared Mash Colander, pump, and controller begin another batch while earlier batches continue through fermentation and conditioning.
- Stage capital around demonstrated demand
- Add cellar capacity without replacing the core process
- Plan the beer menu and fermentation schedule together
- Check utilities, labor, cooling, and packaging at every expansion stage
