BREWERY WASTEWATER 101
Your primer to help you manage your wastewater. There is a ton of information for you in here, all for free.
GET STARTEDWELCOME
This website is for craft brewers and those in the planning process, specific to the business of wastewater. Contrary to what you may hear, brewery wastewater is not toxic or dangerous. It is high in carbohydrates and protein, primarily in the form of dissolved sugar and alcohol, and low in nutrients. This is part of what makes brewery wastewater unique. There is heaps of free information on this website for you; if you need more I offer consulting and design, build, install services for those looking for help. The first hour is always free. I recommend you start your journey with the Brewery Wastewater 101 pages to the left. Enjoy, crack a beer and thanks for visiting.

I have been down this road before. I know which pumps, floor coatings, trench drains, piping and any other materials work best. I also consult regarding boilers, cooling towers, spent grain & yeast, cleaning chemical analysis, utility usage, chemical distribution, budget preparation, and safety. My years of experience can be a huge help working with public works and economic development authorities as well.
I offer the first hour for free as I get acquainted with your project, so don’t hesitate to contact me today!
