Description
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.
DEGONG Beer Unitank use SS 304 or SS 316 material, which is a cylinder conical tanks with cone angle between 65 to 72 degrees. These tanks has a dimple jacket for cooling and 100mm poly urethane foam for temperature keeping. Choose high quality solenoid valves to regulate tank temperature. The cooling surface includes the cone and cylinder area.
