K220 1V Brewing System – 225L One-Vessel Stainless Brewhouse

One vessel. Full-scale capacity. Serious stainless brewing.

The BrewTaurus K220 1V is a 225 L single-vessel electric brewing system: mash and boil in one kettle, 7 kW dual 2" tri-clamp heating, an MP40 pump and full sanitary tri-clamp routing. Single-vessel simplicity at brewhouse scale.

Made to order (pre-order). We build in monthly production batches — contact us for the current lead time before ordering.

Designed operating range

• Nominal vessel capacity: 225 L
• Recommended production (into fermenter): 110–175 L
• Maximum practical knockout: 185–195 L
• Flexible batch capability: ~60–195 L (optimised for 130–175 L)

Heating & performance

• 2× 3.5 kW 2" tri-clamp elements (7 kW total) · 2× Inkbird C236T controllers (16A EU plug)
• Electrical requirement: two independent 16A circuits
• Heat-up (140 L, 15→100°C): ≈40–55 min · Boil: stable rolling boil, ~6–8%/h evaporation

Grain load & mash

• Recommended grain bill: 40–62 kg (high-gravity up to ~68 kg)
• Recommended mash thickness: 2.6–3.2 L/kg (don't go below 2.3 L/kg)
• Example: 50 kg × 2.8 L/kg → ~140 L mash volume

Hydraulics, cooling & cleaning

• 1× MP40 65W pump (continuous-duty capable) for stable recirculation, whirlpool and reliable transfer
• Laser-cut K220 stainless false bottom · stainless elbow + butterfly valves included
• No counterflow chiller by default — 1.5" tri-clamp ports allow external chilling or upgrade to a full multi-vessel system
• Sanitary tri-clamp throughout · CIP-capable when fitted with a spray head

Installation: two independent 16A circuits, stable water supply (if external chiller used), load-bearing surface (filled system ~280–360 kg depending on batch size).

1V vs 2V vs 3V — which K220 configuration

Same K220 vessel volume, three workflows. One-vessel is the simplest footprint; two- and three-vessel add dedicated mash/boil (and HLT) for parallel steps and faster brew days. Your configuration is highlighted.
