Stainless steel Conical fermenter

Conical fermenters are becoming increasingly popular in the Brewing industry due to their many advantages over traditional cylindrical fermentors.

 

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Description

If you have been brewing beer for some time, you will understand the value of purchasing a conical fermenter. Premium conical fermenters feature a cone-shaped bottom and an extra valve. This valve simplifies yeast Harvesting. In addition, it allows you to remove yeast and clean the tank before reusing it. Depending on the intended application of the fermenter, we may opt for a Stainless steel conical fermenter. Below are the key factors to consider before purchasing a fermenter.

1. Size

Consider how much beer you plan to brew, then select a fermenter of suitable capacity. For commercial use, you may choose a large-volume conical fermenter to produce large batches in one run and save time. If you intend to brew small quantities, a compact hybrid conical fermenter with a more budget-friendly price is a viable option.

2. Temperature Control

Temperature control is critical to beer quality. Therefore, selecting a fermenter with reliable temperature regulation ensures you can produce great-tasting beer once the temperature is properly adjusted.

3. Auxiliary Equipment

Efficient conical fermenters arrive fully assembled. Unassembled units require separate procurement of missing components, which increases overall costs.

4. Beer Storage

Many brewers prefer storing beer in separate tanks. Why? This enables slow maturation and carbonation. Longer fermentation delivers a smoother, maltier beer flavour. If you prefer an all-in-one tank solution, you can store beer inside the same vessel used for primary fermentation.

5. Price

Plastic and Stainless steel conical fermenters differ in price due to raw material variations. Tank cost is a core determinant of size, type and quality. Pricing also varies by country of manufacture and freight expense. Notably, DIY plastic fermenters are relatively economical compared with commercially manufactured models, subject to sizing.

6. Valves

Our sampling valve lets you taste beer without opening the fermenter. The typical option is a butterfly valve for yeast and trub removal. If multiple yeast strains will be used, select a valve plug that is easy to sanitise. A high-performance conical fermenter is both practical and cost-effective. It captures yeast to help offset your investment. These are only some of its key benefits. Feel free to contact me for further fermenter details; we are ready to discuss your requirements!

Why are fermenters conical?

Our fermenters are well known for their conical design — a frequent question from new brewers. Leveraging gravity and the specialised tank geometry, conical fermenters deliver multiple advantages. To start with, secondary fermentation is essential for quality beer and achieves outcomes unattainable in primary fermentation alone. However, transferring beer to a separate vessel can compromise flavour. The conical fermenter eliminates the need for tank transfers. Inside one single vessel, you can run both primary and secondary fermentation. The cone geometry pushes sediment and yeast toward the bottom for discharge via the valve. This removes the need for siphoning before secondary fermentation. Furthermore, viable yeast can be recovered and reused. Manual beer transfer from a primary tank to a separate vessel makes yeast recycling far more difficult.

Introduction to Beer Fermentation Tanks


 

Product Details

Fermenter is also called CCT (Cylindrical Conical Tank), FV (Fermentation vessel), primary fermentor or unitank as they are used both for fermenting and lagering. Fermenting is the process during which the yeast transforms the wort into beer. Lagerings takes place after fermenting and is the time given to the beer to stabilize and age after fermenting.

Aelt Stainless steel fermenters can be individually temperature controlled through glycol jackets and are mostly equipped with accessories such as pressure relief valve, CIP cleaning jet, sanitary sample valve, manhole,etc. The design of Aelt fermenter is based on our vast beer knowledge and especially the Conical fermenter bottom and the fact that we combine fermentation and maturation in the same vessel is very important. When calculating your fermenting and lagering capacity and configuration, sufficient time for fermenting and lagering to produce quality beers must be taken into consideration.

In Aelt, Quality is our culture!We pay more attention when produce the products!


We'd like to share more information with you about us, about our factory, our products, our rawmaterial, manuracutring progress etc. The quality is not only shows by the tank appearance.
Generally there are four main elements may have influence for the equipment quality: The raw material, the drawing of the quipments, the welding and polishing and the testing.
(1) About the raw material:
About the sanitary stainless steel 304 , we use 3mm interior shell and 2mm exterior shell.And we usually take the samples to test it from the government. We ensure its quality!
 
(2) About the drawing:
Generally our technician will design the suitable layout accordingly before production once our customers confirmed their orders.
Then our workshop will do the manufacturing strictly according to the detailed drawing. It is normative for every order.

(3) About the welding and polishing:
We make sure the 100% TIG welding with pure argon gas shield. We use the central system of argon, instead of ordinary gas cylinder.
The argon will help to reduce the oxygenation. After welding, they will be polished to arrive to 0.2~0.4 μm without dead corner firstly, then do acid pickling and passivation.
Which will help to remove the oxygenation on welding line; and form protection film on the steel to avoid rust. It will help you to extend the tanks life time.
