Commercial Brewery Chilling

Cool Starts Here

Paul Mueller Company chillers are the heart of your commercial brewery chilling solution. A lifeline for your operation, they pump essential cooled glycol water throughout your facility for reliable, consistent cooling and play a crucial part in each step of the cooling process. Our experts work with your brewery team to size the suitable chiller to complement each brewery chilling application and attain peak performance, keeping your operation healthy.

Right-Sized Glycol Chillers

7 to 10 BBL Brewery Chilling

Popular for brewpubs or 7 to 10 BBL breweries, the mighty HiPerChill™ 5 package chiller delivers exceptional cooling performance in a tiny footprint. Able to flex with your brewery's hourly needs, this 5-horsepower unit utilizes Mueller® HiPerForm® refrigeration technology perfected over the last 40 years. Each HiPerChill 5 package chiller holds a high-efficiency E-Star® condensing unit, brazed plate heat exchanger, circulation pump, and reservoir to maintain optimal temperature. Precise temperature control helps ensure every batch of beer has impeccable flavor every time. 

8 to 15 BBL Brewery Chilling

When your brewery is sizable and cooling lines must cover long distances, a maxxLine™ package glycol chiller is the answer. Ideal for 8 to 15 BBL breweries with high flow rates and hefty cooling demands, these chillers keep your operation running at optimum capacity. The maxxLine chiller’s rugged design is suitable for indoor or outdoor use with air-cooled and water-cooled options. Operating capacities range from 1 to 40 horsepower. Increase energy efficiency and the speed of your brewing process with a maxxLine assist.

15 to 20 BBL Brewery Chilling

Mueller LS series chillers meet the cooled glycol water demands of your 15 to 20 BBL brewery. These chillers are designed for easy adaptation in your current footprint and are primed to grow with your operation. They utilize high-quality Scroll condensing units, which save energy and reduce electrical costs. You can install additional condensing units as your refrigeration needs increase in your thriving business.

The Cooling Process

Multiple Cooling Zones

Paul Mueller Company has designed and crafted industry-leading cellar tanks for over 50 years. Our handcrafted tanks are made with the finest materials. Jacketed, insulated, and manufactured with multiple cooling zones, they are designed for maximum cooling capacity, efficiency, and control.

Cool In Less Time

A two-stage Accu-Therm® plate heat exchanger, also called a wort chiller, can reach lower wort cooling temperatures in less time. In stage one, the wort leaving the kettle is cooled by cold process water from the cold liquor tank, so your wort hits the proper pitching temperature and is fermenter-ready fast. When even lower wort cooling temperatures are desired for your particular brew, stage two enables additional cooling by utilizing your chilled glycol loop.

Precise Temperature Control

Mueller commercial brewery chillers help regulate yeast production in Mueller beer fermenters. Supplying cool glycol via the fermenter jacket maintains optimal wort temperatures. Precise temperature control supports the fermentation process. This precision ensures batch consistency and that each distinct type of beer reflects its signature flavor profile.

Desired Temperature Drops

Mueller brite beer tanks serve to mature, clarify, and carbonate beer after fermentation. Brewers know the carbonation process often demands near-freezing temperatures. You can obtain the desired temperature drops in your brite beer tanks with the aid of a Mueller commercial brewery chiller. Cooling occurs as chilled glycol circulates through the jackets of these vessels.

Meet Off-Peak Cooling Demands

Cold liquor tanks hold the cold process water used to cool wort and meet other off-peak operational cooling demands. This efficient storage method recycles thermal energy from the brewing process, reducing horsepower demands and eliminating the need for an enormous chiller. Incorporating an Accu-Therm® plate heat exchanger into this brewing process step decreases water-cooling time requirements.

Cold Room Chilling

Beer storage demands the same precise temperature control required throughout the brewing process. If you use glycol-to-air heat exchangers in your cold room, Mueller chillers work to supply cool glycol.

If you would rather use a refrigerant-to-air heat exchanger, a Mueller "OE" Series condensing unit will help you maintain the cold room temperatures needed to protect your product. Our chiller line's adaptability allows you to design your cold room cooling solution flexibly.

Taproom Chilling

Your cooling efforts pay off in the taproom. You can invest in a Mueller Brewery chiller and confidently serve your customers. Mueller chillers support both brite beer tanks and serving beer tanks, which are available in a wide array of sizes and design pressures to maintain the integrity of your finished beer.

You may skip the cold room altogether by featuring polished stainless steel or copper serving tanks to store and cool the beer in your taproom. With sophisticated engineering and display-quality finishes, serving beer tanks eliminate the need for kegs and make an impressive taproom showpiece your patrons will appreciate.
