‘Ultimate Flow Control’ at the Brew House
Northamptonshire based craft brewery Maule Brewing has benefited from Zoedale expertise
1 ˝˝ hygienic butterfly valves from Italian manufacturer Omal
The Bedfordshire based business supply hygienic valves and actuators to breweries of all sizes from 1 barrel craft breweries up to the big multinationals like Carlsberg and Molson Coors.
A recent interesting project was with Northamptonshire based craft brewery Maule Brewing – The Zoedale team specified 1 ˝” hygienic butterfly valves from Italian manufacturer Omal with a mix of Valpes electric actuators and Omal spring return pneumatic actuators to control the flow of all liquids in the brewery. Zoedale also supplied some 2” brass solenoid valves for the brewery chilling system.
The guys at Maule Brewing gave this statement about the valves:
‘The valves play an important role in our process and production by ultimately giving us more control of our time and temperature. We can now control our mash in and sparge temperatures and volumes with complete accuracy to help us to hit our brewing targets and extract the most from our high quality ingredients. Movement of our liquor from tank to tank has been made easier with ultimate flow control. At the other end of the brew house we have control over our temperatures and flow for an accurate temperature for pitching our yeast into the fermentation vessels. Overall the more accuracy we can have in the process the more consistency, quality and flavour we can get into our beers! The valves have no doubt helped us do that.’
Maule brewing now produce a core range including a hoppy Pale Ale, a Vienna Lager and an IPA.
