I'm planning on opening a nanobrewery with a small tasting room. The building we are thinking about leasing has sort of a strange layout, and the cold room will be located about 30ft. from the fermenters. We'll probably have about eight serving tanks in the cold room (each about 2bbls in size).
I know many breweries use a portable pump and brewer's hose to transfer beer from tank to tank, but I'm wondering if would be better to run pipes from the fermenting room to the cold room. Does anyone have experience running un-carbonated beer through hard lines? What are the advantages/disadvantages of pipes vs. brewer's hose?
Any suggestions on beer transfer would be much appreciated.
