Small conical beer fermenter
In the intricate world of craft brewing, the fermentation stage is a critical juncture where yeast transforms wort into the liquid gold we know as beer. Small conical beer fermenters are integral to this process, offering a compact yet powerful solution for brewers to hone their craft.
Introduction of Our Small Conical Beer Fermenter
This our small conical beer fermenter for microbreweries.We have 100L,1bbl,200l,2bbl,300l,3bbl,400l,4bbl,500l,5bbl conical fermenters to meet your virous requirements for your microbreweries.The conical fermenters' plates and accessories are made of international standard SUS304 stainless steel,however,if you want SUS316 stainless steel plates for the tanks,we can do the customized production for you.The beer tanks surface can be brushed polishing,mirror polishing or red copper,interior of the tanks also can be mirror polished if you want.

With high precision temperature sensor, the small conical beer fermenters can realized automaticlly temperature control,real-time feedback of temperature curve, it also supporting remote operation;The tanks equipped with safety valve, pressure regulating valve, sampling valve, liquor outlet valve, blow down valve, dry inlet, inflation valve, CIP cleaning ball, etc.
We use laser cutting and argon shielded welding during the beer fermentation tanks' production, the internal of the fermenters commonly do pickling and passivation, the surface accuracy ≤ 0.4 μ m；The conical fermenters has polyurethane foam insulation,thickness is 80mm;There are dimple cooling jackets around the tank body and bottom cone,the test pressure is 0.4MPa; The working pressure of the tank is 0.15 MPa, and the test pressure is 0.4 MPa; Our factory do water pressure test to all of the fermenters and bright tanks,the test period is 48hours.The strictly test and inspection make sure the tanks inside,the dimple jackets and pipe ports has no leakage when the fermenters arrives in our clients' brewery.
Small conical beer fermenters embody the marriage of precision and practicality in the craft brewing process. Whether in a homebrewing setting or a small-scale commercial operation, these fermenters empower brewers to refine their techniques, experiment with new flavors, and ultimately craft exceptional beers. As the craft beer movement continues to flourish, the small conical fermenter stands as a testament to the accessibility of precision brewing, inviting enthusiasts to embark on a journey of flavor exploration and brewing mastery, one small batch at a time.
The price of the small conical beer fermenters is various because of the different configuration of the fermenters.If you plant to add extra fermenters inside of your breweries,please contact with us and send us your requirements such as the quantity of the fermenters,the configuration of the tanks,your brewery space layout.Our sales engineer can give you a professional quote of the fermenters.Cheers!
FAQ
Q1: What is the advantage of the compact footprint of small conical beer fermenters?
A1: The compact footprint is advantageous for breweries with limited space. It allows brewers to maximize their brewing area, creating a functional and organized workspace.
Q2: How does the conical shape of these fermenters contribute to the brewing process?
A2: The conical shape promotes efficient sediment settlement. As fermentation progresses, yeast and other solids settle at the bottom cone, simplifying the process of racking and ensuring a clearer and cleaner final product.
Q3: Why is stainless steel construction important for small conical fermenters?
A3: Stainless steel construction ensures durability, corrosion resistance, and ease of cleaning. It provides a sanitary environment, maintaining the integrity of the beer and extending the lifespan of the equipment.
Q4: Do small conical fermenters incorporate advanced temperature control systems?
A4: Yes, many small conical fermenters include advanced temperature control systems. Maintaining precise fermentation temperatures is vital for yeast activity, flavor development, and achieving consistency across batches.
Q5: How do these fermenters facilitate sampling and yeast harvesting?
A5: Small conical fermenters are designed for ease of sampling and yeast harvesting. Brewers can take samples for quality checks without disturbing the entire batch, and the bottom valve facilitates straightforward yeast harvesting for reuse in subsequent brews.
Q6: Are small conical fermenters scalable for experimentation?
A6: Yes, these fermenters provide a platform for experimentation. Brewmasters can use them to test new recipes, explore unique ingredients, and experiment with different yeast strains, allowing for creative expression without committing to large batches.
Q7: How do small conical fermenters simplify cleaning and maintenance?
A7: The simple design of small conical fermenters contributes to efficient cleaning and maintenance. Easy access to the interior and fewer components streamline the cleaning process, ensuring a sanitary environment for each new batch.
Q8: Are small conical fermenters suitable for homebrewing and small-scale operations?
A8: Absolutely, these fermenters are ideal for homebrewers and small-scale brewing operations. They bring the benefits of conical fermentation to smaller setups, allowing enthusiasts to craft high-quality beers with precision and control.
