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

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

You can respond swiftly without corporate hurdles.

However, sales can be irregular – seasons change, tastes shift, and suddenly your primary product isn’t moving as fast.

Aromhuset

That’s where additional revenue for small breweries using existing equipment comes in.

Aromhuset’s concentrates let you whip up still drinks (think flat, refreshing sodas without fizz) that are sugar-free, super tasty, and unique.

This has not been offered in concentrate form by anyone else on the market – until now.

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

We have sampled the drinks personally: a small amount in the bottom of a glass, topped off with still water, and voila – amazingly refreshing, without any strange aftertaste

A satisfying and well-balanced soda is achieved with 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.

Combining flavors: All types mix effortlessly. Develop unique combinations, such as a grapefruit-passionfruit blend or a banana-rhubarb fusion.

  • Yield king: Massively increase output with minimal input thanks to the 1:33 dilution ratio. Perfect for cost-effective high-volume bottling.1
  • No off-tastes: Aromhuset has nailed the formula, guaranteeing no artificial additives, just pure, natural flavor bursts.23

    Popular varieties include 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 a casual rundown of the process

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

    Mix and stir: Add 1 part concentrate to 33 parts of filtered still water in your tank. Gently stir until blended – completed within minutes. No heat, no complexity.

  • Bottle away: Process it along your production line just like any other item. Glass or PET bottles are excellent choices; 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: Stock your taproom, local shops, markets, online. Price at £1.50-£2.50 per 330ml – healthy margins since concentrate costs pennies per bottle.
  • Expense? A 500ml concentrate could cost £3, producing 16.5L – roughly 50 x 330ml bottles

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

    Being the first in the market with no competition in concentrate form gives you a competitive advantage

    The UK witnessed a 20% increase in non-alcoholic drink sales last year, with zero-sugar beverages taking the lead

    Areas of interest:

  • Events & festivals: Specialty tastes for brand exposure.
  • Export potential: Originating in Sweden makes it EU-conducive.
  • Dealing with Common Challenges: Key Points to Keep in Mind

    Let’s stay grounded – there are a few aspects worth considering:

  • Guidelines: Food labeling regulations in the UK are clear for sugar-free drinks. Enlist ingredients (water, concentrate with sucralose, natural flavors). Verify allergens – free from nuts, suitable for vegans.5
  • Shelf life: The shelf life of mixed still drinks, when chilled, is 6-12 months. Unopened concentrate can last for years. Remember to bottle fresh to maximize the preservation.
  • Testing: When testing, start with small batches. Test the dilutions by tasting them – aiming for 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: Enhance your website’s SEO ranking by targeting keywords like “sugar-free still drinks in your locality”. Increase engagement by sharing social media snapshots of the mixing and bottling procedures.
  • Water quality matters – use filtered or spring for best taste

    Immerse yourself in flavors: Grapefruit is a sharp, wake-up call

    Pineapple provides a tropical escape

    Rhubarb evokes tangy nostalgia

    Mix Grapefruit-Passionfruit for a tangy adult sip

    All blendable – invent “Brewer’s Berry Blast” or whatever fits your brand

    Are you set to go?

    Execute a 10L test batch on a low-key day.

    Label and sell locally to gather feedback.

    Scale up operations, list online, and pitch to pubs.

    This is extra income for small breweries using existing equipment at its finest – low risk, high reward, fun flavours.

    Your setup’s primed; Aromhuset provides the secret sauce.

    Take it for a spin, and observe your profits effervesce (well, metaphorically) expand.

    Here’s to that!
