Control moisture in wort, filtration, bottling and malt storage with industrial desiccant dehumidifiers. Vision Air Conditioning delivers turnkey solutions across Canada & USA.
Humidity challenges in beer production and malt storage
Breweries often face excessive humidity in key process areas:
- Wort boiling and hopping vessels
- Cooling, aeration, and filtration zones
- Bottling lines and label application
- Dry storage of hygroscopic ingredients
- Malt silos and granule stockpiles
When humidity rises above optimum levels, malt moisture jumps from 3-4% to 5-6%, causing loss of fragility and quality.
Excess moisture leads to condensation on equipment, electronic failures, production line stoppages, mildew growth, label slippage, and structural corrosion.
Why choose desiccant dehumidifiers?
- High drying efficiency with low energy consumption
- Effective at low ambient temperatures
- Compact size and easy installation
- Fully automatable humidity control

How desiccant dehumidifiers work
Process air passes through a silica-gel rotor where moisture is adsorbed. A second air stream, preheated to 90–140 °C, regenerates the rotor. The warm, humid exhaust is vented outside.
