How to install the steam line in brewery
Steam as a crucial part in brewery, which plays a energy and safty function in whole brewing system. Let’s see Alston brew team how to design the steam line in brewery. 
Basic configuration: Steam generator +piping lines& insulation etc
&The steam generator is recommended to use an gas one which lowers the extra cost of installation, and saves the possible cost on chimney/exhaust pipe. The Chinese brand steam generator is recommended by us. European steam generator can be the extra option of client.
&Steam coming from the generator, and going to different tanks to be heated via the distributor. This helps to create buffer and we have enough steam amount going into different tanks.
&All the condensed steam line can be connected and condensed water to be transferred to steam generator for water reusing, which lowers the energy consumption.
&The brewhouse steam line all use stainless steel piping, with flange connection, the whole line including manual valve, pneumatic valves, pressure gauges, safety unit, trap valve, stainless steel insulation, all with flange connection, the regulating valve is also configured to regulate the steam amount, this is controlled by the exact steam amount from mash heating and boiling process etc, to make sure we have enough evaporation and heating efficiency.
&New designed steam line with avoid the “water hammer” problem when start heating, and the whole heating progress is well controlled.
&Steam line is for brewhouse and HLT, with steam distributor close to brewhouse system, the steam line from steam generator to distributor is not included.
As the current updated steam line from ASTE, the heating efficiency will be increased min 20%, which saves energy from steam generator. With the new insulation, the whole line is well protected to avoid and mistake. The new added filter, stop valve and bypass line makes sure we have good effective way for condensed water recovery. The water hammer problem will be well protected as the design above.
Steam amount to be regulated as the exact steam request from mash tun, boiling tank etc, which helps save a lot of energy.
