To evaluate an employee wage for the brewers consider the following:
Production Quantity
Per 1.5 bbl batch (~45 gals) is equal to ~360 - 16 oz pours at 90%/80% pour efficiency = 324 /288 pints total.
Ingredients
- - Grain - ~ 120# at ~$0.80/# = $96
- - Hops - ~ 2# at ~$10/# = $20
- - Yeast - 100g at $60/500g = ~$12
- - CO2 ~ 1/2 tank at $24 = $12
- - Cleaning supplies ...minimal
TOTAL material cost $140
- - $140/324 pints = $0.43 per pint ...not including labor or utilities (electricity, water, HVAC, insurance, etc).
Labor
It takes ~ 9 hr/1.5 bbl batch (6 hr brew day, 3 hr cleaning, kegging, carbonating, etc).
- - at $10/hr labor cost --> $90 per batch.
- - at $12/hr labor cost --> $108 per batch
- - at $15/hr labor cost --> $135 per batch
Total Cost (materials + labor)
- - at $10/hr labor, total production cost $230 ($140 + $90)...or $230/324 pints (90%) = $0.71 per pint.
- - at $12/hr labor, total production cost $248 ($140 + $108)...or $248/324 pints (90%) = $0.77 per pint
- - at $15/hr labor, total production cost $275 ($140 + $135)...or $275/324 pints (90%) = $0.85 per pint
Summary/Conclusion
- - Independent of labor cost the markup on draft beer is >80%.
- - At 80% pour efficiency and $15/hour wage, cost is $0.95 per pint.
- - Currently we are brewing ~once per week (3-4 per month), making a monthly expense of ~($140 x 4) + ($135 x 4) = $1,100 expense. This should generate (4 x 45 gal x 128 oz/gal / 16 oz/pint x $5/pint x 90% efficiency) $6,480 in revenue. Brewing 3 times a month, expense of ~($140 x 3) + ($135 x 3) = $825 expense. This should generate (3 x 45 gal x 128 oz/gal / 16 oz/pint x $5/pint x 90% efficiency) $4,860 in revenue.
