How do fermentation tank and Brite tank stay warm in winter?
As most of us know, there are 2 glycol jackets on fermentation tank as well as brite beer container.Usually the glycol jackets are utilized to cool down the fermenter and also brilliant tank by glycol water recycling.
The basic working procedure for the glycol air conditioning system is listed below: Glycol chiller chill the glycol water in glycol water container. There is a glycol pump to reuse the glycol water between glycol water container as well as fermenters/brite tank. Once fermenter temp is more than established temp, the glycol pump will take glycol water to cone-shaped fermenter to cool. The glycol cooling unit consists of glycol refrigerator, glycol water container, glycol pump as well as related pipes. We do not suggest VFD control for glycol water pump. But the VFD control of glycol pump can be tailored according to your requirements. But just how to heat my fermenter and also maintain it warm throughout chilly winter season?
Tiantai will certainly present our concepts to maintain our fermenter warm.
First, one of the most very easy means is to cover a cotton on fermenter to stop the cool surroundings affect the fermentation tank.
Similar to us makers, we warm ourselves by heavy wintertime jacket.
The Second method is recommended by our brewing designer,
We will make 2 shutoffs at the glycol inlet and also electrical outlet of FV as well as BBT.
Those 2 shutoffs will connect with cozy water.
When the temperature decrease very crazy than our fermentation temperature, we will drain the glycol in the glycol jacket,
and also lead cozy water to glycol jacket to heat the fermenter container and also brite tank.
But this warm water can not be from hot water for brewing. We must have a small warm water container.
The cool water after warming up tank will certainly back to this little tank.
We suggest to utilize the heating container in CIP Cart Unit if you have budget constraint as well as conserve cost.
