The 20 bbl fermenter (2x20) is a larger wine-making facility that usually holds 20 casks, each holding 5 litres of wine. This winemaking system is usually used by large wineries or winemaking cooperatives. The 20 bbl fermenter has a larger capacity and more brewing capacity than the 2 barrel brewing system.
The advantages of this winemaking system include:
1) Greater brewing capacity: The 20 bbl fermenter can hold more alcohol and therefore produce more beer or other liquors.
2) Better brewing effect: Large brewing equipment can better control the temperature and humidity to ensure the normal fermentation of yeast and the quality of beer.
3) Higher production efficiency: large winemaking equipment can complete the winemaking process faster, saving time and labor costs.
4) Better winemaking environment: Large winemaking facilities can provide better winemaking environment, such as quieter operating space and better ventilation system, to ensure the healthy growth of yeast.
However, the 20 bbl fermenter has some disadvantages, such as:
1) Higher investment cost: The 20 bbl fermenter is usually more expensive than a 2 barrel brewing system and therefore requires a higher investment cost.
2) Larger footprint: 20 bbl fermenter usually requires a larger site to accommodate, so site planning can be challenging.
3) Higher maintenance costs: Due to the larger capacity of the 20 bbl fermenter, more human and material resources are required to maintain and manage it.
20 bbl fermenter use range
20 bbl fermenter is suitable for large breweries or brewing co-operatives and is usually used to brew high quality beer, liquor, wine, etc. Here's how the 20 bbl fermenter is used in different areas:
1) Brewing beer: 20 bbl fermenter can be used to brew various types of beer, such as white beer, yellow beer, dark beer, etc. By controlling temperature and humidity, the normal fermentation of yeast and the quality of beer can be guaranteed.
2) Brewing liquor: 20 bbl fermenter can be used to brew high-quality liquor, such as Maotai-flavor, Luzhou-flavor, Qing-flavor, etc. The quality and yield of liquor can be improved by controlling fermentation temperature and yeast content.
3) Make wine: 20 bbl fermenter can be used to make high quality wines such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, etc. The quality and yield of wine can be improved by controlling fermentation temperature, pressure and yeast amount.
4) Brewing other alcohol: 20 bbl fermenter can be used to brew other types of alcohol, such as rice wine, cooking wine, fruit wine, etc. The quality and yield of wine can be improved by controlling fermentation temperature and yeast addition.
5) Production by-products: 20 bbl fermenter can be used to produce malt syrup, alcohol, yeast expansion and other by-products. The quality and yield of by-products can be improved by controlling fermentation temperature, pressure and yeast addition.
In summary, the 20 bbl fermenter is a winemaking device with a larger capacity and higher brewing capacity, suitable for large breweries or winemaking cooperatives. The use of 20 bbl fermenter can improve the quality and yield of alcoholic drinks such as beer, liquor and wine, as well as produce by-products such as malt syrup, alcohol and yeast expansion.
20 bbl fermenter maintenance method
Here is how to maintain 20 bbl fermenter:
1) Before each use, clean the inside of the fermenter thoroughly with water to ensure that there is no residue.
2) Before use, check the sealing performance of the fermenter to ensure a good seal.
3) When using, avoid exposing the fermenter to sunlight or high temperature environment, so as not to affect the fermentation effect.
4) During use, check the fermentation inside the fermenter regularly to ensure normal fermentation.
5) After use, clean the inside of the fermenter thoroughly, dry it and store it.
6) When not in use for a long time, thoroughly clean the inside of the fermenter, dry it and store it in a dry and ventilated place.
7) Avoid using too strong cleaning agents or chemicals to clean the fermenter, so as not to cause damage to the fermenter.
8) Replace the filter or filter screen inside the fermenter regularly to ensure the normal use of the fermenter.
9) Avoid placing the fermenter in a place that is susceptible to vibration or collision, so as to avoid damage to the fermenter.
10) During use, avoid turning the fermenter upside down or shaking it, so as not to affect the fermentation effect.
