Real unitank architecture — now FULLY jacketed, at pilot scale.
The BrewTaurus PF220 Fully Jacketed Unitank takes our proven PF Unitank platform and upgrades the cooling: the glycol jacket now covers both the cone and the cylindrical body. Same brewery-grade architecture — real bottom dump, sanitary tri-clamp workflow, pressure-capable construction — with cooling that works at any fill level, from a full tank down to the last litres in the cone. For pilot, nano and small-production cellars where batch sizes vary, that flexibility matters most.
Pre-order. Built in production batches — order now to reserve a unit from the next incoming shipment.
Why PF Fully Jacketed Unitanks are different
- FULLY jacketed — glycol cooling over both the cone and the cylinder, effective from a full tank down to minimal fill
- Real bottom dump — a proper 2" tri-clamp outlet for yeast and trub handling
- Full tri-clamp workflow — modular, sanitary, easy to upgrade over time
- Pressure-capable construction for modern, closed-process fermentation
- Large 8" top access — better cleaning, easier inspection, more accessory options
Batch range & cooling efficiency
- Total gross volume: 220 L · cone ~38 L · cylindrical body ~170 L
- Recommended fermentation batch: ~20–200 L (sweet spot ~100–190 L)
Because the cone is cooled too, there is no practical cooling minimum: even a small volume sitting in the cone stays in full contact with the jacket. Brew a pilot batch in a production-size tank, crash-cool partial volumes, or serve beer straight from the tank — the last pours stay just as cold as the first, because cooling stays efficient as the level drops into the cone. The upper limit is simply fermentation headspace. The supplied neoprene jacket improves stability further, and the 1.5 mm body adds the rigidity a tank this size deserves.
Port architecture
- Top access: 8" TC · Bottom dump: 2" TC (60° cone) · Glycol: 2× 1.5" TC (in/out)
- Multiple 1.5" TC accessory ports — sampling, thermowell, sensors, pressure
What's included
- PF220 fully jacketed Unitank (60° cone) · stepped 8"→4"→2"→1.5" reducer assembly · stainless stand with adjustable M10 feet · removable neoprene insulation jacket
- Clamps + gaskets: 1× 8", 1× 4", 4× 2", 6× 1.5" (with matching gaskets)
- 1× 2" + 1× 1.5" butterfly valve · 1.5" sample tap · 1.5" thermowell (140 mm) · 1.5" pressure gauge · 1.5" PRV · 2" TC cap with gas post + 35 PSI PRV
- Blind caps: 4", 2", 1.5" · instruction manual (EN/CZ)
Pressure safety: working pressure 1.0 bar, never exceed the 2.0 bar maximum. Always use a PRV.
