This is a one day brewing course with a Speidels Braumeister looking at how you take your brewing to a semi-commercial or commercial basis by setting up a nanombrewery. This essence is that you can brew and sell your beer but not give up your day job or become a full time brewer. We look at:
What’s your brewing mission?
We explore what makes a nanobrewery unique and how you can fit in brewing around your existing life and lifestyle and still produce beer commercially.
This is why nanobrewing can be ideal for part time brewers, retirees, brewpubs, restaurants, community projects, wedding & events venues, restaurants.
How much space?
Is it possible to brew beer commercial from my shed or garage? The answer can be yes. Many microbreweries have started out by brewing from their shed. We look at how much space you need to get going and the ideal design for a nanobrewery.
Brewery plant and equipment - what are your options?
Space is often a limiting factor for nanobreweries. We look at the options but focus on the 1 pot system of brewing using a Speidels Braumeister and how you can get brewing for less than £10,000. We take you through a brew on the day and show you how easy it can be to produce beer using the one pot system and then scale up to a small scale commercial scale. Other subjects covered:
Equipment (researching which system to use – e.g. size of Braumeister)
Range of machines available
Range of beers suitable for this system
What makes this system unique
Advantages – Consistency and quality control, ease of use, cleaning etc
BREWING TECHNIQUE WITH THE BRAUMEISTER
Taking my brewing commercial
We look in detail at the financial considerations that underpin your business proposition - business plan / startup capital / on going costs and overheads.
It’s all about the ingredients
It’s a cliche but it’s true! Sourcing your raw ingredients to produce your beer and getting the best deals and quality ingredients to make stand out beers.
Killing it with the brand
Company name. Is it registered? Can it be registered?

This leads to registering a website and setting up social media accounts. These all seem better at an early stage as they involve little investment and are best done before the trading name becomes public.
Branding and presentation (bottles, labelling, pricing)
Keeping it legal as a food & drink business!
How to register with HMRC and become familiar with Excise Notice 226
Dealing with Trading Standards
Ensuring your brewing business is compliant with Environmental Health and Food Safety and Hygiene compliant
