The future of brewing is automated: How cloud technology is revolutionising craft beer production.

Industry 4.0 brew-tech platforms are bringing automation to the forefront, leading to a wave of benefits for craft beer production.

 

Brew-tech platforms act as the brains of the operation, constantly monitoring and adjusting brewing parameters in real-time. This level of automation translates to several advantages—first, it boosts efficiency. This means that tedious tasks are handled automatically, allowing brewers to concentrate on the creative side of things and ensure quality control. Additionally, precise control over factors like temperature and pressure minimises ingredient waste and optimises brewing times. 

Secondly, automation promotes consistency. Unlike manual brewing where human error is unavoidable, cloud-based automation ensures every recipe is executed flawlessly. This also minimises errors that can lead to spoiled batches or inconsistencies, freeing brewers to focus on their areas of expertise. Finally, brew-tech platforms meticulously managing processes, reducing water and energy use. 

For craft brewers interested in embracing cloud automation, here are some practical steps to take:

  1. Evaluate your needs: Assess your current brewing setup and identify areas where automation could provide the most benefit.
  2. Research cloud-based brew-tech platforms: Research features, compatibility with your existing equipment and scalability to meet your future needs.
  3. Pilot and integrate: Start by integrating automation into a single process, such as fermentation or chilling. This allows you to evaluate the technology and its impact before a full-scale rollout.
  4. Embrace continuous improvement: Cloud technology offers ongoing data analysis and process optimisation. Brewers can then use this information to continually refine brewing practices and maximise efficiency as needed. 

Cloud-powered automation is revolutionising craft brewing, promising a future of increased efficiency and guaranteed consistency for every batch. For more information on how our team can help you get started, get in touch.
