Moreover, rising consumer preference for fresh beer and the growing trend of on-premises sales are expected to boost the market.

The outlook of the home beer brewing machines industry is highly promising, with significant potential for global expansion. As the craft beer movement continues gaining momentum worldwide, more consumers seek unique and personalized experiences with their beverages. Consumers are increasingly willing to explore the brewing process, experiment with different ingredients, and craft their beer. This growing interest in craft beer culture presents a vast opportunity for the market to expand its reach across different regions.

The rise of the craft beer movement in the U.S. has led to a renewed interest in beer culture and appreciation for diverse beer styles. Many craft beer enthusiasts are drawn to home brewing to experiment and create unique flavors. According to the published information by the American Homebrewers Association, there are approximately 1.1 million dedicated homebrewers in the U.S. This number reflects the substantial size of the homebrewing community and its impact on the craft beer culture. The average age of the typical homebrewer is 42 years.

In addition, the American Homebrewers Association (AHA) is a prominent organization dedicated to promoting and advancing the hobby of home brewing in the U.S. The AHA plays a significant role in supporting home brewers, advocating for their interests, and providing educational resources for both beginners and experienced enthusiasts. The AHA organizes events such as the National Homebrew Competition, one of the largest homebrew competitions in the world. This competition allows home brewers to showcase their skills and receive feedback from experienced judges.

Recognizing this global trend, manufacturers of home brewing machines are strategically expanding their distribution networks to reach a wider audience. They are establishing partnerships with international retailers and e-commerce platforms, making their products accessible to customers worldwide. In addition, product packaging and marketing are often designed with a universal appeal, transcending language barriers and cultural differences. Minibrew is one such unique manufacturer with an extensive online presence and delivery globally. It focuses on automated smart beer brewing with self-rinsing and self-cleaning options.

Product Insights

In terms of product, the mini brewer segment held a market share of 69.13% in 2022. Technological advancements have played a crucial role in the growth of the mini brewer market. Manufacturers have been able to design compact, efficient, and user-friendly brewing systems, making the process of home brewing more approachable to a wider audience. This has led to an increase in the number of hobbyist brewers who might have been intimidated by traditional, larger-scale brewing equipment.

In November 2019, Netherlands-based food tech start-up MiniBrew launched a new home brewing machine called MiniBrew Craft. The machine is designed to make it easier and more convenient for people to brew their beer at home.

Other popular mini brewers by this company include the CRAFT GEN 3, CRAFT GEN 3 Pro, and CRAFT GEN 3 PRO+. These brewers can be used to make a variety of beers, including ales, lagers, and stouts.

The full-size brewer segment is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 7.1% from 2023 to 2030. The increasing number of small-scale and independent brewers in the U.S., Europe, and New Zealand, owing to the growing popularity of craft beer among consumers, is anticipated to bode well for the full-sized brewer segment. People are increasingly looking for personalized products, and this trend is also evident in the beer brewing market. Full-sized brewers allow people to create their unique beers, and this has contributed to the growth of the market.

Apart from this, modern full-sized home beer brewing systems have become more accessible and user-friendly than ever before. With automated features and intuitive interfaces, beginners can easily navigate the brewing process. This has expanded the potential customer base and attracted newcomers to the hobby.
