For a growing local business like Eden Mill Distillery—where tradition meets cutting-edge craft—the PLATEflow was the perfect blend of performance and practicality.

When it comes to crafting world-class gin and whisky, every detail matters—including hot water. So when Eden Mill Distillery near St Andrews needed a reliable, high-performance solution for their new facility, they turned to local experts. Supplied via H F Electrical, we delivered an 800 Litre stainless steel PLATEflow system that now plays a key behind-the-scenes role in one of Scotland’s most innovative distilleries.

Designed to handle variable daily demand, the PLATEflow system delivers instantaneous hot water, pre-assembled to exact specifications, cutting both installation time and on-site disruption. With a compact footprint and high thermal efficiency, it’s ideal for high-demand environments like food and beverage production.

  • Instantaneous hot water
  • Pre-assembled for rapid installation

As a family-run business based in the region, it’s been a pleasure to support another Scottish success story. We’re proud that our technology now supports the smooth running of Eden Mill’s day-to-day operations—raising the bar for efficiency while staying true to local roots.

Eden Mill St Andrews are independent distillers based in Guardbridge, Scotland. The distillery is located on a 38-acre (15 ha) site, known as the Eden Campus, owned by the University of St Andrews. Brewing began in 2012.

Eden Mill became Scotland’s first combined distillery and brewery in 2014 when they started distilling Scotch whisky and gin in 2014. Eden Mill is no longer classed as a brewery as beer production ceased in 2018 but the company continues to distill and sell both gin and whisky.
