Crafting great-tasting beer is the perfect blend of science and art. It requires precise control of temperature at every stage of the brewing process combined with the unique skillset of blending the right ingredients to create the perfect brew. The chiller—which we call the heartbeat of any brewery—is a refrigeration system that’s designed to remove heat from your beer, your wort, your glycol, your fermentors, your brite tanks, all the way down the line.
When it comes to choosing the right chilling equipment for your brewery, you need to find a partner who understands your unique needs and can provide reliable, efficient, and high-quality equipment, as well as the service to keep things running smoothly no matter what life throws at you. When selecting a brewery chiller, there are other factors to consider: cooling capacity, compressor type, refrigerant type, the unit’s size and weight—and, of course, the price.
At G&D Chillers, we custom-build each chiller to meet the specific needs of each brewery. So, whether you’re a small startup or a large production facility, we have a chiller that's right for you.
We recently moved into a larger facility that offers expanded manufacturing capacity as well as a state-of-the-art R&D facility, which includes a test chamber. We are now more equipped to handle greater efficiencies in our manufacturing processes and run three different production lines, resulting in faster time to market and exceptional customer service.
Here, check-out G&D’s new 80,000-square-foot facility.

G&D Chillers’ commitment to exceptional customer service and in-house engineering is evident in what our brewing customers have to say about working with us and our exceptional team of designers, engineers, technicians, and customer service representatives.
Derek “Doc” Osborne, founder of Pedal Haus Brewery in Tempe, Arizona, has been a long-term partner of G&D Chillers. “In my 27 years of brewing there has been one company I have grown to trust with my brewery glycol needs, and that’s G&D Chillers,” Osborne says. “Their design, service, and reliable equipment is something I have built a long-term relationship on. I look forward to using G&D in all my future builds.”
Adam Schmeichel, bead brewer at Fate Brewing, operates in the hot climate of Phoenix, where keeping beer temperatures low is a challenge. “However, with G&D Chillers we have never had a problem. We’ve purchased more than one as the growth of our operation has commanded for it, and I can attest the customer service is incredibly wonderful. I don’t know how we’d get through without [their] help.”
Josh Rein, head brewer at Logboat Brewing in Columbia, Missouri, has been working with G&D Chillers since the beginning. “Since Logboat’s founding, G&D has been with us every step of the way through multiple expansions,” Rein says. “Their equipment is easy to maintain, and the service provided is top-notch.”
