SPEY VALLEY BREWERY

In December 2014 CERTUSS UK Ltd were invited to tender for a project by specialist brewery supplier Moeschle (UK) Ltd.

Tender details were to supply and commission a Steam Generator and Package Plant Module that would serve a new Micro Brewery for Spey Valley Brewery in Keith, Mulben, Scotland. The equipment would need to supply a 20 barrel facility, with a fuel supply of LPG and steam production requirement of 8 hours a day, 7 days a week. After evaluation of the requirements, CERTUSS UK offered a tender.

The equipment

  • 1No. Junior 350 kg/h LPG Fired Generator
  • 1No. CVE Skid Unit with all necessary ancillary equipment preinstalled
  • Water treatment package and program
  • Delivery to site
  • Commissioning

      The customer was to build a boiler-housing, which would include lighting and heating, external of the brewery. In November 2015 CERTUSS received an order for the supply of the equipment with full commissioning of the plant taking place after the completion of the brewery installation in March 2016.

      Joint owner of Spey Valley Brewery Mr David McDonald informed that "we did look at second hand boiler plant, however after calculating up the costs and taking into consideration, efficiencies and warranties, we decided to go with the CERTUSS unit, as it offered a far greater return on our capital outlay".

      Spey Valley Brewery currently produce – SPICED OOT (6.1% ABV), SPEY STOUT (5.4% ABV), DAVID’S NOT SO BITTER (4.4% ABV), STILLMANS IPA (4.6% ABV), SUNSHINE ON KEITH (3.5% ABV), 1814 SPEY VALLEY LAGER (5.0% ABV).
