Beer, one of the most popular alcoholic beverages in the world, is not only a part of the food industry, but also a complex system that integrates machinery and equipment, engineering technology, brand marketing and cultural experience. Globally, beer production has long been separated from traditional small-scale hand-made brewing and has entered the era of industrialization, automation and digitalization. From the site selection of the factory, equipment procurement to the process control of the entire brewing process, every link determines the taste, quality and commercial competitiveness of the beer.

With the rise of craft beer culture around the world, more and more companies and families are investing in home brewing systems and small-scale industrial production (microbrewery, micro brewery equipment). As a leading domestic brewing equipment manufacturer, TONSEN not only provides a variety of brewhouses and mash tuns such as 5bbl brewing system and three vessel brewing system, but also has complete fermentation equipment and auxiliary systems to meet the full process needs from home brewing to commercial beer production (equipment needed to brew beer commercially).

In recent years, the global craft beer market has maintained rapid growth, with both commercialization and home brewing demand rising. According to Wired, since 2020, consumers' interest in hand-brewed beer has surged, driving the hot sales of homebrew equipment and consumables, especially during the epidemic. At the same time, with the increase in investment in large breweries, the market size of commercial beer brewing equipment and its supporting consumables continues to expand. Take TONSEN as an example. Its industrial-grade fittings, valves, hoses and other professional consumables have become standard equipment for many breweries. Many domestic and foreign research institutions predict that the global beer consumables market will have an average annual compound growth rate of more than 7% in the next five years, among which the growth rate of filtration, packaging and cleaning and disinfection consumables is the most significant.
