  3. The cooling jacket of the fermentation tank also conforms to the technical standards of various countries in the world, and provides different heat exchange methods such as Maitreya plate, curved mesh, ceramic tile mesh, etc., to meet the heat exchange of modern technology. Various cooling media and stresses are required.
Classification of fermentation tanks

Classification of fermentation tanks

The fermentation system is composed of a fermentation tank, a sake tank and a temporary storage tank. The fermentation tank is used for the normal life activities of brewer’s yeast using the fermentable substances in the wort under certain conditions, and its metabolites are the required craft beer.
  • Classification by hygienic standards: sanitary stainless steel tanks, ordinary stainless steel tanks
  • Classification by pressure requirements: stainless steel pressure vessels, non-stainless steel pressure vessels
  • Classification by form: can be divided into vertical stainless steel tanks, horizontal stainless steel tanks

Fermentation tank model

The models of fermentation tanks range from 100L to 5000L, which can be customized according to customer requirements. The fermentation tanks are divided into two types: waist manhole and top manhole. The quantity should be calculated according to the specific daily output and the actual site area. The inner liner and outer cover of the fermentation tank are made of high-quality SUS304 stainless steel, and the interior is polished and cleaned in all directions.

Precautions when using a fermenter

To prevent the deformation of the inner tank due to negative pressure, the upper valve cannot be closed after cleaning the fermentation tank, and it can be plugged with alcohol cotton.
  1. inspect circuits, switches, wiring connectors, pipes, joints, etc. to prevent aging of lines and loose pipes.
  2. Check the pressure and temperature of the fermentation tank every day, and solve the abnormality in time, so as not to affect the fermentation of beer.
  3. Prevent valves, switches, and hoses from falling off and causing burns during high-temperature operation.
Why you want a conical fermenter

Why you want a conical fermenter

There are many good reasons to use a conical fermenter for home brewing. They’re very convenient, easy to use, and they look great too.
  1. Conical fermenters allow you to use the bottom outlet to drain the lees and yeast from the beer before and during fermentation. This removes the solids that cause off-flavors in the beer.
  2. It allows you to capture high-quality yeast near the end of fermentation for immediate or later re-use (you can store it in the refrigerator for a week or two).
  3. You can use the same jar for primary and secondary fermentation without the hassle of transferring.
  4. It is very convenient to use the side outlet to load the beer into the keg. The bottom line is that conical fermenters save a lot of the hassle of home brewing.
