Eco 250L Beer Brewing System

This craft beer brewhouse has been designed to deliver professional-grade quality at an accessible price. It is fully engineered and built in Italy by industry specialists.

The brewing system is made entirely of stainless steel and includes 3 freestanding vessels, a wort transfer pump, a water transfer pump, and a heat exchanger. Other accessories supplied include 2 level rods, 3 flexible hoses L=2000 (plus one L=4000), a sight glass for checking wort clarity, and a DIN key for connecting and disconnecting the flexible hoses.

The brewing system uses an adjustable flame-heating setup powered by 3 stainless steel burners (two 35 kW burners and one 26 kW burner), one dedicated to each vessel. It offers a production capacity of 250 litres in a single batch and 500 litres in a double batch.

What makes this brewing system stand out?

What sets this product apart from most solutions on the market is, first of all, its build quality—both in terms of materials and workmanship. In addition, each vessel is fitted with an internal burner (therefore not visible) with adjustable flame, the option to run the system on natural gas or LPG, and the presence of extraction flues. This feature allows the disposal of about 80% of combustion fumes. Thanks to heat extraction flues, the system improves air quality in the brewhouse—both in terms of breathability and room heating.

Other strengths include a reinforced laser-cut filter screen that helps improve malt efficiency and reduces the risk of damage, as well as oversized gear motors and thicker stainless steel.
