SMT Brews works with brewers large and small to design and fabricate custom brewhouses, cellar tanks and various other sophisticated brewery-specific support vessels and systems. The SMT Brewery team combines decades of experience engineering brewhouse equipment, brewing, process engineering, fabricating sanitary stainless systems and integrating automation & control systems.
We build 3.5BBL to 100BBL brewhouses that use steam power (gas or electric) or enclosed indirect fire.
We can help you all the way from the initial designs to the final installation. SMT is located here in the United States, so we are easy to get in touch, can usually get to your location quickly if needed, and can ship equipment anywhere in the U.S.

Customer Testimonial for SMT Brewing Equipment:
We chose SMT because of their ability to work with us on custom specs for the brewhouse and they are located close by. The brewhouse is being manufactured to fit the best layout for our space. Our mash tun will give us the flexibility to mash at different temperatures throughout the mashing process. This is a technique that is used in traditional Belgian brewing and we feel that it is an important feature for the brewhouse.
