He said on a conference call Saturday that the search could take weeks.
The team announced Friday that interim manager Dale Sveum is no longer under consideration. Sveum took over after Ned Yost was fired with 12 games left in the regular season.
Melvin says the next manager must have had success at the major-league level.
The Brewers reached the postseason for the first time since 1982, but lost to Philadelphia in four games in the opening round.
