Greetings fellow brewers.
This is my first post and I'd like to thank you for all your inputs in this discussion board, it's been really helpful so far.
I'm planning on starting up a brewpub in Colombia, South America (I live here), and after doing some market research I think i can manage around 80% markup on my beer selling retail, so I'm thinking about starting small and take it from there. My thoughts on initial equipment are:
4 BBL Brewhouse (Mash/Lauter, Boil/Whirlpool, HLT)
4 BBL Fermenter x 1
4 BBL Brite Tanks x 3
I'm thinking on brewing once a week, so I'll send a batch to ferment for a week, then transfer the beer to a BBT for conditioning and carbonating, which frees me up the fermenter for another batch, and so on... at least until demand picks up, in which case I'll get another fermenter and brew twice per week.
I was hoping to get some feedback/suggestions on this system, I'm open for ideas!!!
Thanks guys and keep on brewin' and remember "Beer is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy"
Prost!
