Stainless Steel Mead Tank 300 L with Flat Bottom for Reliable Fermentation
Quality mead starts with honest honey, but the result is also determined by proper fermentation and maturation management. The stainless steel tank with a volume of 300 liters is designed for beekeepers and mead producers who want to have the entire process under control. It is made of food-grade stainless steel AISI 304 (1.4301), which is resistant to acids, easy to maintain, and does not affect the taste or aroma of the beverage. The mead thus retains its natural honey character without unwanted off-flavors.
Floating Lid for Protection of Mead Against Oxidation
Air exposure can negatively affect the quality of the entire batch during mead production. The tank is therefore equipped with a floating lid with an inflatable bladder and pump, which allows sealing the contents according to the current liquid level. The lid rests directly on the surface, whether the container is full or only partially filled after racking. This limits the contact of mead with oxygen and reduces the risk of oxidation during maturation.
Temperature Control and Safe Sample Collection
Stable temperature is important for clean fermentation and a balanced flavor profile of the finished mead. The Pillow Plate type cooling jacket in combination with an integrated dial thermometer helps to better respond to temperature changes in the tank. The practical sampling valve allows hygienic sample collection for checking sugar content, pH, or fermentation progress without the need to open the entire container. The transparent sight glass additionally facilitates quick checking of the amount of mead inside.
Easy Sanitation and Hygienic Operation
When processing honey and producing mead, equipment cleanliness is essential. The smooth inner surface of stainless steel and the flat, carefully crafted bottom facilitate washing, sanitation, and removal of yeast sediment. Thanks to the quality stainless steel ball valve DN32, bottling is fast and convenient. The tank construction helps reduce the risk of contamination and saves time when preparing for the next batch.
