Stainless steel pump over wine fermenter
September 11, 2024
This wine fermenter is designed for intensive red wine fermentation, with a pump-over system that promotes even extraction of color and tannins.
The pump over wine fermenter, a crucial component in winemaking, is also known as a remontage system. It’s designed to enhance the fermentation process, especially for red wines. This method involves pumping wine from the bottom of the stainless steel wine tanks, which is the fermenting vessel, over the top of the fermenting must. The must is a mixture of grape skins, seeds, and stems that float to the surface during fermentation.
Maintaining the must’s moisture and extracting color, tannins, and flavors from the skins are essential for the wine’s final quality. The wine equipment is made of stainless steel for durability and ease of cleaning. It features a cooling jacket for precise temperature management, a CIP spray ball for cleaning, a breather valve for pressure control, and a sloped bottom for sediment removal. A filter screen prevents unwanted particles, and a bimetallic thermometer offers accurate temperature readings. The wine brewing equipment also has adjustable stainless steel legs for various settings.
