Fermenters / Cylindrical-Conical Tanks
Category:
Tanks and vessels
Application:
Beer
The production of beer in modern breweries use fermentation in cylindrical-conical tanks (CCT). They are cylindrical vessels with a conical bottom which are dedicated of the primary fermentation or the entire fermentation process, including maturation. The CCTs are the most commonly used types of tanks for beer production.
Usually, these tanks are working under pressure. Biomashin possess the relative experience and knowledge, as well as the obligatory certification for their design and production.
It is mandatory when it comes to CCTs to have a cooling/heating device in order to maintain the temperature regime during fermentation, pasteurisation or inoculation.
