Energy efficient wort boiling system
Optimize your brewing process with a two-phase wort boiling system that reduces energy use and enhances hop yields, offering precise thermal control and flexibility for crafting diverse beer types.

Optimizes Wort Boiling and Evaporation Processes
The GEA JETSTAR® is an innovative wort boiling system specially designed for breweries and beverage manufacturers. It features a unique two-phase boiling process that reduces thermal stress and enhances flavor consistency across various beer types. During operation, it uses a natural circulation evaporator, eliminating the need for additional pumps and optimizing energy efficiency. Suitable for lager, stout, IPA, and specialty craft beers, the JETSTAR® handles continuous operation with retrofit compatibility, making it versatile for new installations or integration into existing systems. This wort boiling system is crafted from stainless steel, ensuring durability and resistance to corrosion, while its hygienic design facilitates easy cleaning. Additionally, it supports Intelligent Wort Management (IWM) software, enabling seamless process control and recipe versatility for special beer designs. The system’s engineering accommodates easy customization and offers high-efficiency performance, all while supporting energy storage system compatibility.
