WE ADVISE YOU TO CONNECT THE MACHINE TO THE HOUSEHOLD WATER SYSTEM.
CONNECT THE HOSES
1. Check if the gaskets are well-placed in the plugs.
2. Attach the high pressure water hose to the Brewie+’s water
inlet and to your household water system. Do not forget to
make sure the household water valve is closed. Use extension
hoses if necessary.

5.5. CLEANING
IMPORTANT!
Cleaning your Brewie+ after every
brew is important, so the Brewie+
has several built-in cleaning programs to aid you.
Before launching the cleaning
program, make sure the Brewie+
is connected to the water system
and take everything out of the
machine (Brewie Bag, false
bottom, hop cages). The items
may be hot when removed from
the machine.
Handle them with care!
The false bottom and the hop
cages are dishwasher safe.
CAUTION: DURING THE CLEANING PROCESS EXCESS IVE AMOUNT OF WASTE WATER IS DRAINED THROUGH THE WORT/ CLEANING
!
WATER OUTLET. WE ADVISE YOU TO PLACE THE OUTLET TUBE INTO A SINK OR ATTACH IT TO THE HOUSEHOLD WASTEWATER SYSTEM.
PLACE THE UNCONNECTE D END
of the low pressure hose into your fermentation
tank. Note that the Brewie+ does not contain a fermentation compartment, but it is compatible with
any kind of keg or fermentation tank. To ensure the
most efficient way to drain, place the fermentation
bucket lower than the Brewie+. Make sure all hoses
are still securely attached and unbroken.
DRAINS
Choose the preferred draining mode
from the drain menu. Draining will start
automatically. Press the button on
the left side of the machine to pause
draining at any time, press and hold to
re-start.
ADD THE YEAST
into the fermentation
tank.
You can learn more about
pitching the yeast in the
Knowledge Center.
SEAL THE FERMENTATION TANK
AND INSERT THE
AIRLOCK .
Generally 10 days at room temperature in a dark place is enough
for primary fermentation. After
that you can transfer the new
beer into bottles/kegs or barrels.
