Industrial IoT for Breweries
LoRaWAN sensors, gateways and dashboards for Breweries & distilleries — specified, stocked and supported by UK engineers.
Industrial IoT for Breweries replaces manual rounds, spreadsheets and blind spots with live LoRaWAN telemetry: low-power sensors, resilient gateways and dashboards that flag a problem the hour it happens, not the week after. Indiott specifies, stocks and supports the full stack and ships across the UK from local warehouses.
The UK had around 1,715 breweries in early 2025 alongside a fast-growing craft distilling scene, part of a beer and pub sector that supports 1,040,000 jobs. Fermentation, cold storage and duty accounting all depend on tight temperature and process control, while CO2 and flammable ethanol vapour bring real safety duties. LoRaWAN sensors give small and mid-size producers affordable, HACCP-friendly monitoring without a full SCADA build.
Industrial IoT for Breweries: sensors, gateways and dashboards
Built for Head brewers and distillers, Production and cellar managers, Facilities and engineering leads, Food safety and HACCP coordinators and Energy and sustainability managers. Every asset that fails quietly — a pump, a chiller, a cold store, a plant room — is a candidate for a battery LoRaWAN sensor reporting to one dashboard. Typical Industrial IoT for Breweries deployments include:
- CO2 and oxygen depletion monitoring in fermentation and cellar areas
- Fermenter, mash tun and cold store temperature monitoring
- Cask and keg store humidity and temperature logging for HACCP
- Effluent, water and energy sub-metering across the brewhouse
- Flammable vapour and DSEAR zone monitoring in still rooms
- Secure gateways linking tank sensors to production dashboards
LoRaWAN sensors and gateways for Breweries & distilleries
The Industrial IoT for Breweries hardware below is UK-stocked and dispatched nationwide. Every device joins the same five-layer stack, so you can start with one gateway and a handful of sensors and scale without re-platforming.
TS101Insertion temperature sensorLoRaWAN insertion probe for pipe, tank and process temperature.
EM300Leak / contact / T+RH sensorCompact EM300 series for door, leak, temperature and humidity monitoring.
EM500Outdoor environmental sensorRugged EM500 series for outdoor CO2, level, pressure and soil measurement.
AM103Indoor air-quality sensorCO2, temperature and humidity in one LoRaWAN sensor for offices, wards and plant rooms.
UG65Semi-industrial LoRaWAN gateway8-channel indoor gateway backhauling hundreds of LoRaWAN sensors over Ethernet, Wi-Fi or cellular.
WS101Smart buttonOne-press LoRaWAN button for call-for-service, andon and issue reporting.
Compliance and drivers in Breweries & distilleries
Producers must run a HACCP-based food safety plan and register as a food business with their local authority under Food Standards Agency rules. Alcohol production and duty sit under HMRC's Alcoholic Products Producer Approval, with duty charged by ABV plus draught relief and Small Producer Relief. CO2 in cellars and flammable ethanol vapour in still rooms fall under DSEAR, requiring gas monitoring and zoning.
Indiott builds the monitoring and evidence layer around those duties: continuous data, threshold alarms that reach the duty engineer by SMS, and timestamped records you can hand to an auditor. Useful references: Beer and pub industry supports more than 1 million jobs (BBPA) Alcohol Duty rates (HMRC, GOV.UK). The stacks breweries & distilleries teams reach for most:
Why Breweries & distilleries teams choose Indiott
Here is why breweries & distilleries operators pick Indiott as their Industrial IoT for Breweries partner rather than a generic reseller.
UK stock, UK delivery
Milesight, Atop and AquaIoT hardware supplied from the UK, typically dispatched within 14 working days nationwide.
Engineer-led, not box-shifting
An engineer scopes every enquiry and returns a costed bill of materials within one working day.
One stack, many brands
Interoperable sense, connect, secure, control and manage layers, so you are never locked to a single vendor.
Bespoke when off-the-shelf ends
When the device you need does not exist, we design and build it — firmware, enclosure and integration.
Industrial IoT for Breweries: frequently asked questions
Can you monitor CO2 build-up in the cellar?
Yes. Fixed CO2 sensors alarm before levels become dangerous in fermentation and cellar areas, supporting your DSEAR risk assessment and staff safety.
Is this affordable for a small independent brewery?
LoRaWAN keeps costs low: a single gateway covers the site and battery sensors need no wiring, so temperature, CO2 and energy monitoring fits a small producer's budget.
Does the data help with HACCP and duty records?
Continuous temperature and process logs give auditable HACCP records, and volume and energy data support production tracking alongside your HMRC duty accounting.
