BREW DAY

Ten minutes of work. The machine does the rest

You are learning to brew. From working with the ingredients to pouring your beer — while the software handles every temperature, timing and transition that used to be the hard part.

Step 1 - Select it

Select a recipe. Get the grains, hops and yeast. The web application will tell you exactly what goes where.

Step 2 - Brew It

Mash, boil, chill — fully automatic. Then it cleans itself. You do not need to be in the room.

Step 3 - Pour it

Fit the tap and serve 20 glasses straight from the keg. Pressurised and carbonated for up to three months — no flat beer, no oxidation.

THE PART NOBODY DOES THE MATH ON

€1,099 sounds like a purchase.It's a payback.

Every batch fills the Smart Keg with 5–6 litres — twelve pints, or twenty 33cl glasses — from a recipe kit starting at €20. That's a little over €1 a glass, for beer brewed to a real brewery's recipe.

€1 your cost per glass

€6 what the same craft beer cost you in a bar

12 batched to pay the machine off

At a batch every three to six weeks — the natural rhythm once you're going — the MiniBrew has paid for itself inside a year, and you've drunk more than 200 glasses of beer you made yourself getting there.

WE STAND FOR QUALITY

60 DAYS TO CHANGE YOUR MIND

Brew two full batches . Then decide. A fermentation takes anywhere from three days to three weeks. A fourteen-day return window is useless to you — you'd be sending the machine back before you'd tasted what it makes. So we gave you sixty

Brew it properly

Two complete batches, start to glass, with time to spare. Judge the beer, not the box.

Open the kits. Brew different styles. Pull the CO₂. Pour it for your friends.

YOU WON'T BE DOING THIS ALONE

A real person walks youthrough your first brew.

Six months of Legend membership is included, and it isn't a features list — it's the safety net. Before you press start for the first time, someone from the MiniBrew team gets on a call with you

📞 1:1 setup call

A personal onboarding call before your first brew. We walk through setup, your first recipe, and every question you have — so you press start with complete confidence.

MILLED TO ORDER

Your kits aren't sitting in a warehouse. They're milled when you order them

Hops lose aroma in storage. Yeast loses viability. Milled grain goes stale. So we don't pre-pack kits and stockpile them — every kit is blended to order by a specialist maltster in your own region.

Which means we can tell you exactly what's in it. Every kit lists its grain bill by percentage and its hop origin with crop year — because ours are recent enough to print.

Beer worth the counter space.

I have now made several brews and have, so to speak, taken my stabilisers off. I now feel completely comfortable making my brews using the app, which is simply brilliant. I just do what it tells me, and the Minibrew does the rest.
After making my first brew, I couldn't believe the quality and taste of the beer it produced. The finished beer genuinely exceeded my expectations. It tasted every bit as good as many of the commercial craft beers I have bought over the years, and that alone made the investment worthwhile

In short: It works great. Nothing less than impressive. The Craft Beer Channel brewed Pliny the Elder on a MiniBrew. Watch what happened.

Craft Beer Channel 🇬🇧

The MiniBrew is designed for absolute beginners who want an easy complete system to brew craft beer and a guiding hand all the way from grain to glass. It is also designed as a pilot brewery for the experienced brewer or even commercial brewer who wants to develop new styles and recipes in a simple and controlled way with precision in repetition. 

His second brew session verdict: Once you've learned how all the parts fit together, brewing goes incredibly fast and easy. It was so easy to brew this time that I barely noticed I was brewing beer.

MiniBrew makes home brewing easy, but for real brewing enthusiasts perhaps a little too easy — because knowledge of the brewing process is no longer needed.

Tweakers 🇳🇱

I think it is an amazing machine that makes brewing really easy. I used to brew with the traditional 3 pots setup and this is totally different. It's true that you cannot control some things during the process, but I love that it's easy to clean and that you brew small batches. Everything worked as expected and the support team is superb, they are there for you all the time.

Facu 🇪🇸

Traditional homebrewing is a messy, complicated affair of giant plastic buckets, arcane sterilisation rituals, and equipment that looks like it belongs in a chemistry lab. That's why we're frankly obsessed with the MiniBrew Craft Gen 3." And their closer: "This is a machine you can grow with, from curious beginner to full-blown brewmaster. Built from premium materials — this is the high-tech, low-effort brewing solution we've been waiting for.

OUR STORY

I wasn't a brewer.I wasn't an engineer.

In 2015, living in the Netherlands, I couldn't find what I was looking for. A proper American IPA. So Olivier and I decided to make it ourselves.

The first attempts were rough. Messy . Inconsistent results. Buckets everywhere. Traditional homebrewing is complicated — and we almost gave up before they ever taste something worth drinking.

But the idea wouldn't leave us alone.

What if brewing could be as simple as a coffee machine? — without years of experience or a garage full of equipment?

Three generations later — 3,000 brewers worldwide, 20,000 recipes and nearly one million beers poured — MiniBrew users are proud of every single one.

We built a way for anyone to become a brewer and better at it. That's still all we're trying to do.

STRAIGHT ANSWERS

The questions we actually get

General questions

Is everything really included for €1,099?

Yes. The €1,099 covers the complete CRAFT Gen 3 system — base station, mash tun, cleaning container and the Smart Keg — plus three premium recipe kits, the starter items (CO₂, cleaning solution, hop bags) and six months of Legend membership. Shipping is free.

There is no second keg to buy, no accessory bundle, no starter pack sold separately. You can brew your first batch the day it arrives without ordering anything else.

What will I have to buy later?

Recipe kits, when you want another batch — from €20 for 6 litres. Over time you'll also replace consumables like CO₂ and cleaning solution, the way you would coffee beans or dishwasher tablets.

That's the entire ongoing cost. No mandatory subscription, no proprietary cartridge, no service plan.

What do I need to get set up at home?

Two things: a WiFi connection and a water supply. That's it.

WiFi — MiniBrew connects to your home network to run the brewing software, monitor fermentation in real time and keep your machine updated. A standard home WiFi connection or hotspot works perfectly.

Water — The machine connects to a water supply the same way a washing machine does. This during rinsing ( 30 min) and cooling (30 min) A standard threaded kitchen or utility tap works. An outdoor tap with a standard connector works too. No plumbing knowledge needed.

Set up takes minutes. Your first brew can start the same day.

I've never brewed before. Is this actually for me?

It's the reason the machine exists. The browser walks you through every step with short video clips, and the machine controls temperature, timing and fermentation itself. Your first batch will surprise you.

And when you outgrow guided mode, Legend membership lets you build recipes from scratch — the same machine grows with you instead of being replaced.

Brewed a few times? You'll immediately feel the difference. No more guessing, no more inconsistent results. MiniBrew gives you repeatable quality every single time — so you can focus on exploring new styles instead of troubleshooting problems.

Know a lot about brewing? Good. Because our portal gives you full control — create your own recipes from scratch, adjust fermentation temperatures, experiment with hops and malts, and share your creations with a community of thousands of brewers worldwide.

Whatever your level, MiniBrew grows with you. Start with a recipe kit, build your confidence, and brew exactly what you want — on your terms.

How long until I'm drinking it?

Prep is 5–10 minutes. Brew day runs about 4 hours, unattended. Fermentation is 3–30 days depending on the recipe — a hoppy IPA can be ready in under two weeks, a Belgian tripel takes three.

Then the Smart Keg holds it pressurised and carbonated for up to three months, so you drink it at its best rather than racing through it.

What if I don't like the beer it makes?

Send it back within 60 days for a full refund, and we'll arrange collection. Use the kits, pull the CO₂, pour it for friends — we'd rather you find out properly than keep a machine you're unsure about.

Is it only beer?

No — beer, cider, kombucha and hard seltzer, all on the same machine. You switch between them with nothing more than a different recipe kit. No extra equipment, no extra counter space.

Where do the recipe kits from?

From a specialist maltster in your region, blended to order rather than pre-packed and stored.

In the UK and Ireland that's The Malt Miller. Across the EUBraumischung.de. In SwitzerlandBrau- und Rauchshop, who supply the country's commercial breweries. All three ship domestically — no border, no customs charge, no delay.

Two consequences. Fresher grain and hops than any warehoused kit — and we publish the full grain bill and hop details on every kit, which no "just add water" competitor will do, because their ingredients wouldn't survive the scrutiny.

It also means your consumable supply doesn't hang on one parcel crossing one border.

Kits are blended and dispatched within 2–4 working days. In practice you never wait for one: a fermentation runs 3–30 days, so if you order your next kit on brew day it arrives long before the keg runs dry.

Can I brew with my own ingredients?

Yes, you can skip the the kits and get your own fresh ingredients for a local store.

How much cleaning is there, honestly?

The base station runs an automatic cleaning programme after every brew and a rinse cycle before the next one — that part genuinely happens without you. Your job is to wipe down spillages with a damp cloth.

The Smart Keg needs an overnight soak after each batch, and it disassembles in seconds for a rinse. The mash tun is hand wash only — some dishwashers run hot enough to damage it. All yellow components are dishwasher safe.

We'd rather tell you this now than have you discover it in week two.

What's the warranty?

Two years as standard.Register your machine within 60 day sat pro.minibrew.io and it extends to five years — the same window as your return period, so do both at once.

Can I share my own recipes?

Yes — and when you do, you become part of something bigger.

Create your recipe in the MiniBrew portal, brew it, perfect it — then choose what to do with it. Keep it private in your personal Brewery Portal, or publish it to the community for 20,000+ brewers worldwide to discover, clone and brew themselves.

Some of the most brewed recipes in the MiniBrew community started as someone's kitchen experiment. Yours could be next.

Is there an app to download?

No — and that's deliberate. MiniBrew runs in any browser on any device, so there's nothing to install, nothing to update, and nothing that stops working when your phone's OS changes. It connects over 2.4 GHz WiFi and notifies you at every milestone.

Can I pay in instalments?

Yes. Klarna lets you pay later — up to 90 days — and other local payment methods are available at checkout, including iDEAL, Bancontact, Apple Pay and Google Pay.
