Information of beer fermentation tank

What is beer fermentation tank

Fermentation tanks, or more commonly fermenters, are key components in beer brewing. Fermenters are specialized tanks designed to precisely control temperature and maintain the optimal conditions for fermentation, which occurs once the wort has been transferred from the brewhouse to the fermenter; a conical-bottom design is highly recommended for fermenters allowing for easier yeast harvesting.

1.Cleaning temperature: Cleaning the fermentation tank with hot water or steam sterilization is very dangerous, and it is easy to form a vacuum pumping phenomenon. Therefore, the temperature of the cleaned fermenter should not exceed 40 degrees.

2.Mechanical  regulating valve:Mechanical  regulating valve, when the pressure in the fermenter rises, danger will occur, so must install the valve.

3.Breathing valve:Large tank is very sensitive to vacuum, and a small negative pressure will cause it to deform.

4.Temperature sensor:the tank requires accurate temperature control and precise temperature regulation. So we should install it.

5.Pressure gauge:In the process of fermentation or storage, we should monitor the pressure. The pressure gauge shows the pressure with a pressure gauge.

6.Sampling valve:A sampling port is set on the fermenter to check the fermentation condition of of beer.

7.Manhole:It is convenient for people to go in and clean. Check the tank for cracks or corrosion. Check the dead corners on the tank or in the pipeline.
