Boost Capacity Without Expanding Infrastructure
Pentair’s High Gravity Brewing (HGB) technology empowers breweries to significantly increase output without the need for costly investments in brewhouse, tank, or filtration capacity. By brewing and fermenting high-strength wort and then adjusting key parameters like alcohol, CO₂, and original gravity just before packaging, you can scale production efficiently and flexibly.
Why Choose High Gravity Brewing?
- Maximize Output
Brew stronger wort and dilute later—freeing up brewhouse and tank capacity. - Reduce Resource Use
Less water, energy, and time needed for heating, boiling, and cooling. - Enhance Product Variety
Easily adjust recipes and alcohol content to meet market demand.
