Beer brewing fermentation system
To say that in the whole set of beer brewing equipment, the equipment system with the highest degree of self-control is undoubtedly the fermentation system. The fermentation system is composed of fermentation tanks. Due to the particularity of the fermentation tanks, the temperature and pressure in the tanks can be controlled automatically. Therefore, the equipment with the highest degree of self-control should be the fermentation system.
At present, most of the fermenters in the UK are mostly conical fermenters, because the conical fermenters are more convenient for the precipitation, separation and recovery of yeast after the main fermentation. The conical fermenter is a closed tank. The natural convection of the puree in the fermenter is relatively strong. The higher the tank body, the stronger the convection. The convection intensity is related to the shape of the tank, the capacity and the control of the cooling system. As far as the shape of the tank is concerned, the ratio of diameter to height for conical tanks is generally 1:3-1:5. If it is required to be beautiful, the ratio that is most in line with people's aesthetics is 1:1.6. In terms of volume, the maximum capacity is more than 25% more than the effective volume.
Accessories for beer brewing fermentation systems
In addition to the corresponding tank body, of course, the corresponding accessories are indispensable for the fermentation tank. The main accessories are as follows:
1. Temperature sensor.
During the main fermentation process, accurate temperature control and precise temperature measurement are required. Thermometers are generally used in home brewing equipment, and temperature sensors are generally used in large-scale equipment. Nowadays, computers are mostly used for temperature control in breweries.
2. Pressure gauge.
during fermentation and wine storage, the pressure of the conical tank must be monitored.
3. Sampling valve.
There is a sampling port on the conical tank, which can be used to sample beer and measure sugar at any time.
4. Pressure regulating valve and breathing valve.
Pressure regulating valve and breathing valve are used to control the pressure inside the tank.
5. Cleaning ball.
Cleaning ball is used for cleaning the fermenter before and after use.
6. The hops are dry-injected.
The hops are dry-injected is used to add new hops to the wine in the later stage of fermentation.
The specifications of our company's beer equipment range from small to large. Fermentation tanks can be made from 50L to 20000L. For different types of stores and different needs, different types of fermentation tanks will be configured according to the output and customer requirements. Our products include fermenters and all accessories. UK customers can purchase all beer brewing equipment from us in one stop. Our product specifications and models are complete, the quality is good, the price is favorable, welcome to consult.
How to choose the capacity of the beer brewing fermenter?
Homebrew lovers generally use 50L beer brewing fermenters; hotel bars generally use 100-500L beer brewing fermenters, and occasionally 1000L-2000L beer brewing fermenters; if it is a small brewery, generally 1000L and above fermentation tanks are used canned.
In addition to the above general situations, there will also be special situations. Some British customers, in order to reduce investment and rationalize investment according to production requirements, will also have saccharification: the fermentation is 1:2 to 1:6. It often appears in brewery projects, such as 2000L saccharification. Since the combination of saccharification systems can realize continuous production, it is also common for fermenters to be equipped with 4-10T beer brewing fermenters.
British customers can choose a fermentation system solution that suits them according to their production capacity and investment budget. If you are undecided, you can also consult our professionals, who will give you some reasonable suggestions.
Different fermentation systems yield vastly different results
Traditionally, breweries use large open fermentation vessels, which have several benefits. One, this provides the winemaker with many, many generations of yeast because the winemaker can scoop the yeast off the surface. These containers are very popular in the UK to this day. Many years ago, brewers would ferment their beers with a mixture of native and brewer's yeasts that could be reused batch after batch. Although most modern beers are made with single-strain yeasts, you can still find beers fermented with this mix of yeasts.
However, these large, open fermentation vessels are not without their own problems. They are difficult to clean, and they are not as hygienic as modern closed fermentation equipment. Today, most breweries in the UK use fermenters with conical bottoms, each with its own advantages and disadvantages. These vessels offer clean technology and good temperature control, but the extremely high fermenter heights put extra stress on the yeast. An increase in the partial pressure of gases in solution affects the performance of the yeast and the flavor of the beer. Home brewers have the advantage of time and financial freedom, so they can utilize everything from open fermenters to small commercial cylindrical fermenters.
