Paul Mueller Company Academy

Troy "Twig" Terwilliger, Equipment Integration Manager of Founders Brewing, is confident in the mission of his company. "We just won't cut corners. We will put the best of everything into our product and give the general public an amazing product all the time." 

You have dreams of taking your amazing beer recipes out of the kitchen and into a commercial brewery operation, for everyone in your proverbial backyard to share. Or maybe you took that leap a while back and have been brewing a few BBLs a year. Now you feel ready to upscale to a regional model and find even more appreciative craft beer customers through distribution. 

With 50-years of engineering and manufacturing craft brewing equipment under our belts, we have collaborated with brewers who are ready to go big and those who need a few more years of due diligence. Our resident brewery and process technology expert Fred Scheer highlights the key milestones to reach before it's go-time on a 30BBL system or above.

It has been a successful run for your product and now it’s time to scale up and make more. But like most facilities, you have space constraints. So what is the best way to go about installing bigger processing tanks or more processing tanks into your existing plant?   

Or maybe you are charged with building a new processing line or facility from scratch. The first step is understanding how the equipment can fit into the space you are working with.
