3000 L Stainless Steel Fermentation System for Brewing

Product introduction of Stainless Steel Fermentation System

The stainless steel fermentation system is engineered for modern craft beer production and microbrewery installations. It is widely used in restaurant breweries, hotel brewing systems, and commercial beer production facilities.

With decades of brewing engineering experience, the system integrates fermentation tanks, cellar equipment, and automation control systems into a complete solution. It is designed for hygienic production, stable fermentation, and efficient temperature control.

Working principle

Step 1: Wort Transfer

Hot wort is transferred into the stainless steel fermentation tank.

Step 2: Yeast Inoculation

Yeast is added to initiate controlled fermentation inside the tank.

Step 3: Temperature Control

Dimple jacket cooling system maintains optimal fermentation temperature.

Step 4: Fermentation Process

Yeast converts sugars into alcohol and CO₂ under controlled conditions.

Step 5: Yeast Discharge

Conical bottom design allows easy yeast separation and removal.

Step 6: Beer Transfer

Rotating racking arm is used for safe and flexible beer discharge.
