Built with Alfa Laval’s unique Axial Hermetic Seal, it also offers a smart innovation for minimizing oxygen pickup without increasing costs.
- Clarifier for the smallest craft brewers
- Working capacity: 4-15 hl/h
- Axial-Hermetic Seal for reduction of oxygen pickup
- Simple to operate with low maintenance costs
- Plug-and-play skid for fast, easy installation
Brew 20 - for more profitable batches
Investing in a beer separator is the smartest way to get more out of your fermentation time without buying additional tanks. You can greatly increase yield, saving more of the beer you already brew, as well as boost your capacity with faster tank turnover. At the end of the day, that means more pints in customer hands – and more profit for you.
See an example of a real craft brewery which started using our centrifuge and managed to increase yield by at least 8%!
Enjoy increased ROI with Brew 20
”A lot of our customers see a return on their investment within two or three years, some - in less than a year, - says Vince Polino, market sales manager at Alfa Laval, USA.
See to the left an example of one of our customers, who invested in Brew 20 and managed to get their investments back in just 1,5 years:
- Yearly production: 2000 HL
- Suggested flow rate: 5-10 HL/h
- Beer sales: €2,5/L
- Return of investment: less than 1,5 years

Questions about using a centrifuge in your brewery?
Many smaller craft brewers still assume that centrifuges are too costly or offer little benefit for clarifying beer. But today’s modular disc stack systems, optimized for small breweries, now require only a small investment compared to conventional tank settling, and provide faster solids separation without the same high product losses. Additionally, they provide better retention of aromatics and volatiles than filtration systems. The result is a solution that offers long-term savings and superior beer quality.
