What Water Serving Tanks Do

Water serving tanks—typically configured as hot liquor tanks (HLT) and cold liquor tanks (CLT)—provide the thermal backbone of your brewhouse. The HLT heats and stores hot water for mash-in, sparging, cleaning, and other process steps, while the CLT stores chilled water to support efficient wort cooling and cellar operations. By delivering stable, on-demand hot and cold water with precise temperature control, these tanks improve brewhouse efficiency, protect product consistency, and reduce energy waste across your entire brewing process.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions About Commercial Brewery Equipment

These are the questions we receive most often from brewery owners who are planning or upgrading a 30HL–100HL commercial brewery.

An HLT (Hot Liquor Tank) heats and stores hot water for mash-in, sparging, cleaning, and other brewing operations. A CLT (Cold Liquor Tank) stores chilled water for wort cooling and cellar operations. METO can supply HLT, CLT, or integrated systems according to your brewery requirements.

Yes. CLTs can be equipped with glycol cooling jackets and thermal insulation to maintain the required cold-water temperature. The cooling capacity and jacket configuration can be matched to your brewhouse and wort cooling requirements.

Yes. METO can customize vertical, horizontal, or skid-mounted configurations, as well as tank dimensions, insulation thickness, manways, piping, ports, pumps, and connection positions. This allows the HLT and CLT to fit different brewery layouts and utility rooms.

Yes. Optional PLC/HMI control, automatic temperature holding, flow meters, integrated pumps, and remote monitoring are available. The automation level can be customized from basic temperature control to a more integrated brewery utility control system.

METO offers 304 and 316L stainless steel construction. PU insulation is also available, with thickness customized according to the tank size and thermal requirements. For more demanding applications, 316L inner shells and multi-zone heating or cooling can be provided.
