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.

But sales can be patchy, seasons change, tastes shift, and suddenly your core product isn’t flying off shelves as quick.

Aromhuset

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

Aromhuset’s concentrates allow you to create still drinks (imagine flat, refreshing sodas without bubbles) that are sugar-free, delicious, and distinctive.

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

Visualize this: the bottling line in your microbrewery, usually filled with beer or cider, is now producing bottles of refreshing grapefruit still drink or exotic fruit explosion

Enthusiastic customers are drawn to the healthy aspect of the drink – zero sugar, with sweetness derived from a natural-tasting sucralose that is 600 times sweeter, resulting in a sugar-free drink that goes unnoticed

Having personally tested the drinks: a small quantity at the bottom of a glass, mixed with still water, and presto – incredibly refreshing, with no strange aftertaste

“The delicate sweetness contrasts with the tangy notes and gives you a satisfying and well-balanced soda

Made by Gert Strand AB in Sweden for micro distilleries, breweries, and small bottlers, Aromhuset creates these selections

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: With a 1:33 dilution ratio, you can expect a massive output from minimal input. Ideal for cost-effective high-volume bottling.1
  • No off-tastes: Aromhuset mastered the formula, creating pure, natural flavor bursts without any artificial ingredients.

    The top choices are Grapefruit, Pineapple, Rhubarb, Grapefruit-Passionfruit, Banana, Blood Orange, Fruit Explosion, Grapefruit-Blood Orange, Gooseberry, Lemon-Lime, Raspberry, Strawberry, and Passionfruit

    The wonderful part is, no additional equipment is required

    Here’s an informal summary of the process

    Obtain your concentrate: Buy it from Aromhuset. Start with a small quantity for experimentation – like a 500ml bottle of Grapefruit to sample.

    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: Carry out the process along your line as per usual. Glass or PET bottles would be ideal; consider reusing your suppliers.
  • Label smart: Apply the label “Zero Sugar Still Drink – Grapefruit Burst by Your Brewery Name”. Showcase the local, sugar-free, and carefully crafted.
  • Sell it: Supply your taproom, nearby stores, markets, online outlets. Price between 1.50-2.50 per 330ml – healthy profits as concentrate is cost-effective per bottle.
  • Costs? A 500ml concentrate might run £3, yielding 16.5L – about 50 x 330ml bottles

    Health trends are massive – folks want sugar-free without sacrificing taste

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

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

    Target markets:

  • Events & festivals: Custom flavours for branding.
  • Export potential: EU-friendly due to its Swedish origins.
  • Dealing with Common Challenges: Key Points to Keep in Mind

    Let’s be honest – there are a few factors to take into account:

  • 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: For mixed still drinks, the shelf life when chilled is 6-12 months. What about unopened concentrate? It can last for years. Ensure to bottle fresh for maximum preservation.
  • Testing: Always start with small batches. Conduct taste tests on dilutions to achieve that perfect 1:33 ratio.
  • Packaging: If carbonation lines are free, consider PET bottles; for a more upscale impression, go for glass bottles. Using eco-labels can increase the product’s appeal.
  • Marketing: SEO your site with “sugar-free still drinks your town”. Social snaps of mixing/bottling build buzz.
  • Water quality matters – use filtered or spring for best taste

    Dive deeper into flavours: Grapefruit is sharp, wake-up call

    Pineapple gives a tropical escape

    Rhubarb is tangy nostalgia

    Mingle Grapefruit-Passionfruit for a zingy adult sip

    All adaptable – invent “Brewer’s Berry Blast” or any mix that fits your brand

    Ready to get started?

    Run a 10L test batch on quiet day.

    Scale up, list online, pitch to pubs.

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