The magic to turn a brewery into distillery，this is a technology without change the whole set

This is a trend for brewery to turn toward distillery. Then what happened -- a brewstillery.

With the growing popularity of spirits and ready-to-drinks challenging beer’s market share, the need for diversity is becoming apparent amongst breweries.

Briggs, a company which has worked with Australian breweries in the past, has developed the BrewStillery, a solution that leverages the existing equipment of a brewery to distil spirits such as whisky, vodka and gin from raw materials.

A BrewStillery can transform wash (fermented wort) or beer into various spirits, and can be adapted to volume and flavour demand. The system is integrated into existing operations, with the only requirement being additional space for the system.

The Briggs BrewStillery uses a hybrid distillation process that combines pot and column distillation processes. The traditional pot still technology takes place in copper stills that influence the taste, as a large proportion of the sulphur compounds are removed from the spirit during distillation.

Depending on the spirit alcohol strength, either the wash, beer, or new make spirit flows through different rectification columns, to allow drinks with a higher alcohol concentration to be produced continuously.

The distillation process there consists of a copper pot still and a series of rectification columns. The brewery and distillery work closely together in the company, with both teams using the same raw materials – malt, yeast and water.

The liquor can be bottled into drums. After the installation，the brewery can enlarge the products because they now have their own distillery line. The bottling system can be added

and labellers also help to packaging those fine products
