Fermenting

Stainless fermentation — built like a brewery.

BrewTaurus fermenters are built around tri-clamp architecture and real stainless workflow — not plastic shortcuts and proprietary parts.

Plastic vs Stainless

Fermenters Plastic / “Starter Gear” BrewTaurus Stainless
Temperature control Limited (fridge-only, slow response) Glycol-ready / jacket-ready options
Sanitation & longevity Scratches, aging, replacement cycle SS304, serviceable, made to last
Transfers Siphons, oxygen exposure Sanitary ports, clean racking, lower O2 risk
Yeast management Messy, limited control Conical + dump port = real yeast control
Upgrade path Replace the whole fermenter Expand with standard tri-clamp parts

Pressure-capable vs Non-pressure

Pressure is not a flex — it’s workflow.

  • Ferment cleaner: tighter ester control, smoother profiles
  • Ferment faster: pressure + stable temps = predictable schedule
  • Transfer cleaner: closed transfers, less oxygen exposure
  • Manage yeast properly: dump, harvest, re-pitch

Not everyone needs pressure. But if you do, your tank must be designed for it from day one.

PF Unitanks (jacketed + pressure-ready)

The PF series is built for serious fermentation control: jacketed cooling, proper dump port, full tri-clamp layout.

Small tank. Real unitank logic.

Choose your size

  • PF40 — compact, controlled, perfect for tight spaces
  • PF80 — the sweet spot for ambitious batches
  • PF160 — pilot scale fermentation workflow
  • PF220 — big volumes, real cellar efficiency

Fermentation without control is guessing.
Go stainless.
