One of the first things we installed was an Alfa Laval Brew separator. Alfa Laval also took on a big part of the project management, successfully managed the full process, and they were there for us with technical support.

With a Brew 80, you can allow yourself to be more creative. This equipment is very versatile, it gives a great boost to our creative approach to brewing, while also getting our products noticed in a crowded market.
Morten Valentin Lundsbak, Founder
Rebellion Beer Company
Craft brewing on relatively small scale is a traditional art of creating distinctive beers using the time-honoured brewing methods but coupled with elements of modern technology, such as the Brew 80.

According to Art Oestrike, president at Jackie O's, "Barrel ageing beers is a fickle business. You take this big, beautiful imperial stout or barley wine and throw it into a freshly dumped bourbon barrel and let it sit in our warehouse. A year and a half after packaging it, they start to turn sour. They don't taste good."
Watch the video to hear how Flexitherm Mini 'flipped the barrel aging programme on its head'.
