Unitank / Beer Fermentation Tank
A specialist brewtech unitank is an essential piece of equipment in any craft beer brewery. A unitank fermenter is no ordinary beer tank: think of a uni tank as beer tanks where the magic happens! Tank beer tastes amazing, and it’s easy to see why steel tank brewing has really taken off since its conception.
A unitank fermenter is a dual-purpose combination brewery tank used as both a fermentation tank and a brite beer tank, which can carbonate beer with CO2 while inside the unitank fermenter. YoLong unitanks allow the brewer to carbonate beer quickly (under 24 hours) by using a carb stone. During this process, it is possible to monitor the head pressure to a very precise degree inside the brewing tanks.
Each meticulously crafted and welded YoLong unitank includes cooling jackets, insulation, and a cone bottom. All welding is done under a protection-gas atmosphere, with inside and outside grinding and smoothing, as well as seamlessly welded cooling jackets. YoLong fabricates to PED and AS1210 certification and specifications, ensuring that YoLong uni-tank fermenters meet government stipulations and requirements in different countries.
