Description
Tapered Conical Wine Fermenter
The tapered conical wine fermenter is a stainless steel tank designed for the production of red wines.
It will appeal to those who prefer doing pigéage manually rather than automatically.
Using some additional equipment, it can additionally be adapted for maceration, fermentation and clarification of white wines.
The conical wine fermenter keeps its temperature very well, thanks to the thermally-inert tapered shape.
The conical shape also makes punching the pomace cap down (pigéage) easier.
This particular stainless steel wine tank comes with a large manhole on the center of its head that provides quick and comfortable access for the punch-down process.
Features:
-Tapered Shape
The tapered shape makes punching the pomace cap down (pigéage) easier. It is also thermally inert, allowing the tank to hold its temperature well.
-Rotating Sprinkler
The rotating sprinkler can be mounted on the tapered fermenter's head. It efficiently soaks the entire layer of pomace in the wine tank.
-Dimple Jacket
A dimple jacket is a thin, spotted shell that regulates tank temperatures with the help of a cooling/heating medium such as glycol.
They are made of light-weight materials and spot-welded for minimal additional weight.
