Frequently asked questions about fermentation vessel

What is a fermentation tank?

The fermentation tank is a container used to hold wort and ferment the wort into beer. It can be a tank, barrel, or other containers, also known as a fermentation vessel or FV. Even the most humble home brewery, the fermentation tank is an essential part. Over time, fermentation tanks are constantly changing, because almost everything that can hold liquid can become a potential fermentation tank.

How does the fermentation tank work?

Fermentation is the process by which yeast converts the glucose in the wort into ethanol and carbon dioxide gas, which is also the process of providing alcohol content and carbonation for beer. To start the fermentation process, the wort needs to be transferred to a fermenter with yeast added. After the yeast multiplies and starts life activities, fermentation begins. When the fermentation is nearing completion, most of the yeast will settle to the bottom of the fermenter.

How big is the fermentation tank?

Micet Craft provides customers with fermentation vessels of various sizes (1bbl-600bbl), and also provides a variety of options for each fermentation tank, such as the top or side shadowless manholes. The height of the fermentation vessel can also be customized. We will provide you with a customized design according to the height you need.

How much is a fermentation tank?

The price of the fermentation tank is determined by the capacity and optional accessories. Micet Craft produces fermentation tanks of various sizes, which are mainly used in breweries. The price of the jacketed 1BBL fermenter is less than 1,500 US dollars, while the price of the jacketed 7BBL fermenter is less than 4,000 US dollars. The price of Micet Craft is very competitive.

Why choose your fermenter?

Before the raw materials enter the factory, the engineers will inspect the raw materials, and the production will be carried out after the inspection passes. Every fermenter produced by Micet Craft undergoes a 48-hour pressure test, and the test results are reflected in the test report.

What material is the fermentation tank made of?

Fermentation tanks can be made of metal, plastic, and other materials, but in commercial breweries, stainless steel is used as the production material for fermentation tanks. This is because stainless steel will provide a clean surface for the fermentation of beer, and stainless steel will not react with any components in the wort and will not cause a metallic taste. Try to avoid fermenting tanks made of metals such as cast iron, copper, aluminum, and tin. These metals will react with the acid in the wort, causing the beer to produce strange flavors or cause color changes.

Why is the fermenter tapered?

Conical fermentation tanks are standard equipment for beer brewing. The use of a conical fermentation tank can easily collect yeast through the drain valve and reuse it. Beer can also be aged in a conical container without putting it in an auxiliary container (only the yeast and lees need to be poured). In addition, the brewer can also transfer the beer to a bright tank by gravity.

Does beer need oxygen for fermentation?

In the finished beer, oxygen will destroy the beer flavor and clarity, and cause various peculiar smells. However, oxygen is a good thing before fermentation begins. During the fermentation process, oxygen is needed for the yeast to grow healthily, which is why many brewers aerate the beer before adding the yeast. In the early stage of yeast growth, the yeast will clear all the oxygen in the beer and use it to reproduce. When the fermentation process begins, oxygen is considered a pollutant.

How many fermentation tanks do I need?

The number of fermentation tanks required is determined by the brewing process and the brewing batch. Different brewing processes require different numbers of fermentation tanks. You need to configure it with your brewing process. If you don’t know how many fermenters you need, you can contact us. The engineers at Micet Craft are happy to help you.

Beer Brewing Technical Guide

What are the benefits of dry hopping in brewing?

The production of beer is the water extraction of compounds of varying solubility from crushed grains, by boiling them in the presence of organic matter (i.e. hops), sterilizing, flavoring, and stabilizing the grains against microorganisms, followed by fermentation by yeast. Of course, when you dig deeper, it gets a lot more complicated than that, but the process and ingredients are simple. Dry hopping refers to any hops added after the wort has cooled. These additions are usually made in primary or secondary fermenters, or in kegs. Dry hopping gives the beer a fresh hop aroma without adding any bitterness. It also adds a unique flavor profile.

What size ranges are typically available for fermenters?

Fermentation, the magical process responsible for creating beverages like beer and wine or food products like yogurt and kimchi, heavily relies on the vessels where the magic happens– fermentation tanks. These tanks come in a diverse array of sizes, each tailored to specific production needs, ensuring a seamless and efficient fermentation process.

Cleaning of brewery equipment after use for brewing

Cleaning and sanitizing all brewery brewing equipment is one thing you can do to ensure your beer doesn’t go bad. Failure to clean and sanitize your equipment can ruin your beer. The last thing you want is to spend valuable time and ingredients brewing beer only to have it ruined by preventable contamination. Make it a habit to double-check cleanliness and hygiene to make sure everything is up to par. Proper sanitation is the difference between the best homebrew and one so bad it ends up down the drain. This is the easiest step to making the best-tasting beer.
