A Solution for Small Breweries to Generate Extra Income Using Existing Equipment

When you run a small operation, you’re nimble, right?

You can adjust easily without corporate formalities.

However, sales can fluctuate – seasons change, tastes evolve, and suddenly your main product isn’t selling as quickly.

For

This is where additional income for small breweries using current equipment comes into play.

With Aromhuset’s concentrates, you can concoct still drinks (imagine flat, refreshing sodas without carbonation) that are sugar-free, incredibly delicious, and one-of-a-kind.

Until now, no one else in the market has offered this in concentrated form.

Imagine this scenario: your microbrewery’s bottling line, typically busy with beer or cider production, is currently producing bottles of tangy grapefruit or exotic fruit-flavored beverages

The health-conscious clientele appreciates the zero sugar approach, made possible by sweetening the drink with a natural-tasting sucralose that’s 600 times sweeter than sugar, ensuring the absence of a sugary taste

Having tasted these drinks ourselves: a small amount at the base of a glass, combined with still water, and there you have it – remarkably refreshing, with no unusual aftertaste

A satisfying and well-balanced soda is provided by the delicate sweetness contrasting with the tangy notes

Aromhuset, from Gert Strand AB in Sweden, crafts these bad boys specifically for folks like you – micro distilleries, breweries, and small bottlers

Key perks that make this a no-brainer:…Sweetened with high-purity sucralose – made from sugar but insanely sweet, so tiny amounts do the trick. No acesulfame or aspartame, which can leave a bitter edge. Tastes clean and real.

Mix different flavors: Every kind mixes together smoothly. Craft your own special blends, such as a grapefruit-passionfruit combination or a banana-rhubarb fusion.

  • Yield king: 1:33 dilution ratio means massive output from minimal input. Cost-effective for high-volume bottling.1
  • No off-tastes: Aromhuset mastered the formula, creating pure, natural flavor bursts without any artificial ingredients.

    Some of the most popular types are Grapefruit, Pineapple, Rhubarb, Grapefruit-Passionfruit, Banana, Blood Orange, Fruit Explosion, Grapefruit-Blood Orange, Gooseberry, Lemon-Lime, Raspberry, Strawberry, and Passionfruit

    Here’s the beauty: no new equipment needed

    Here’s an informal summary of the process

    Secure your concentrate: Order from Aromhuset. Start small for testing – perhaps a 500ml bottle of Grapefruit to evaluate.

    Blend it together: Add 1 part concentrate to 32 parts of filtered still water in your tank. Gently stir it – all done in a few minutes. No heating, no complications.

  • Bottle away: Send it down your line as you would with any other product. Glass or PET bottles are ideal; consider reusing your suppliers.
  • Label smart: Attach the label “Zero Sugar Still Drink – Grapefruit Burst by Your Brewery Name”. Emphasize the local, sugar-free, and crafted-with-care attributes.
  • Sell it: Fill your taproom, community stores, markets, web. Set the price at £1.50-£2.50 per 330ml – good margins given the low cost of concentrate per bottle.
  • Costs? A 500ml concentrate might run £3, yielding 16.5L – about 50 x 330ml bottles

    The trend towards health is significant – individuals desire sugar-free options that maintain flavor

    Being ahead of the competition in concentrate form means you are the trailblazer

    Zero-sugar drinks led the way as non-alcoholic drink sales in the UK spiked by 20% last year

    Markets to focus on:

  • Events & festivals: Personalized options for brand promotion.
  • Export potential: Sweden origin makes it EU-compatible.
  • Conquering Regular Hurdles: What to Be Mindful Of

    Let’s keep it real – a few things to consider:

  • Regulations: UK food labelling is straightforward for sugar-free drinks. List ingredients (water, concentrate with sucralose, natural flavours). Get allergen checks – nut-free, vegan-friendly.5
  • Shelf life: The shelf life of mixed still drinks when chilled is 6-12 months. How long does unopened concentrate last? It can last for years. Make sure to bottle fresh to maximize the lifespan.
  • Testing: Always start with small batches. Conduct taste tests on dilutions to achieve that perfect 1:33 ratio.
  • Packaging: Consider using PET bottles when carbonation lines are not limited; for a luxurious touch, opt for glass bottles. The inclusion of eco-labels can enhance the product’s appeal.
  • Marketing: Utilize SEO to target your website with keywords like “sugar-free still drinks in your city”. Generate interest by sharing social media photos of the mixing and bottling processes.
  • The quality of the water is crucial – go for filtered or spring water for optimal taste

    Delve into flavors: Grapefruit delivers a sharp, wake-up call

    Pineapple is a tropical escape

    Rhubarb creates tangy nostalgia

    Mix Grapefruit-Passionfruit for zingy adult sip

    All versatile – come up with “Brewer’s Berry Blast” or any suitable mix for your brand

    Are you set to go?

    Run a 10L test batch when it’s quiet.

    Label, sell locally. Gather feedback.

    Expand, list on the internet, and pitch to pubs.

    This represents additional revenue for small breweries utilizing current equipment at its best – low risk, high rewards, enjoyable flavors.

    Your setup is perfect; Aromhuset gives you the secret recipe.

    Try it out and see your earnings bubble up (well, figuratively) increase.
