added only a small milling tower beside the old building, but
the rest of the equipment had to fit into the old premises.
In the milling tower, Meura installed a Classicmill (CLM3,
9 T/h), a malt grist bin (12 T) and a Mechamasher (50 T/h).
The following modifications were made to the old brewhouse:
Two new agitators for the existing mash tuns
A Meura 2001 Carbo+ mash filter equipped
with 58 chambers (extendable to 65)
An inline wort preheater combined
with the existing energy recovery system
A new whirlpool
A new trub tank
A new deep cooler
A CIP station for the mash filter
Wort type
Without spent grains removal With spent grains removal
Installation started in August 2008. for the welding works
Meura fruitfully collaborated with its sister company
boccard Polska from Poland.
All the strict performance guarantees set by royal Unibrew
were complied with in full. Meura was also able to fulfil the
requirements of reduced downtimes and short time limits.
Moreover, and to the satisfaction of the faxe brewery, the
new equipment produces top quality wort.
The commissioning of the new brewhouse took place in
December 2008 and the final acceptance tests were approved
in february 2009, only eight months after the order.
Today the faxe brewery has a monthly capacity of about
245,000 hl and produces 12 brews a day with an extract
yield of 100%. recently the brewery has even achieved 14
brews a day with the same extract yield of 100%, which is
above and beyond the agreed guarantees.
on the occasion of this article Meura would like to thank
the faxe brewery for its trust and collaboration in this
exciting project.
