El Chingon – One Barrel Scalable Nano-Brewhouses
El Chingon is the only recipe indexing brewhouse in the industry designed to scale up to all larger Mixing Tanks USA brewhouses.
The El Chingon Brewhouse is the smallest nano brewhouse offered by Mixing Tanks USA. The system is thoroughly innovative in its design and function and is intended to serve the smallest of startup breweries while it has the exact geometry and functionality of Mixing Tanks USA’s Diablo, Hopmaster and Custom brewhouse offerings. This allows the El Chingon (literally “Badass” in Spanish) to serve as a recipe indexing Brewhouse for all of our larger breweries.
The El Chingon is a 1 barrel (117 liter) brewhouse, offered in direct fire, steam or electric models. The El Chingon is the new standard for recipe creation and indexing in the brewery industry. From our manufacturing facilities in Portland, Oregon USA, we serve award winning clients on 5 continents.
The El Chingon design draws on our experience producing over 4,000 brewery and craft beverage vessels and commissioning over 375 new breweries worldwide since 2011. Our breweries deliver award winning results across every style of beer on a global stage.
