Description
We build the 1000L unit as a dual-purpose vessel. It handles primary fermentation with a top-mounted mixer for even yeast distribution and dry-hop or sugar addition, then doubles as a bright beer tank after the cone is dumped and the beer is cooled. Breweries pick this size when a 10 to 12 hl batch fits their packaging rhythm. Two brews a week in one tank is realistic, provided the cooling is sized correctly.
Material and fabrication. Product-contact surfaces are SUS304 as standard; SUS316L is available for sour programs or aggressive chloride cleaning. Shell is 3 mm, cone 4 mm, TIG welded and pickled after welding. Interior finish runs 0.4 to 0.6 micron mechanical polish, passivated. Exterior is 2B or brushed, whichever suits your cellar. Cooling jackets cover both the cone and the lower cylinder, and you want both: cone cooling controls the yeast bed, cylinder cooling holds the bulk. Insulation is 80 mm PU under stainless cladding.
Pressure and fittings. Vessels are rated 0.2 MPa working, 0.3 MPa test, with a spring-loaded safety valve and gauge on the top manway. Standard layout includes a 100 mm dry-hop port, CIP spray ball on its own line, adjustable racking arm, and DIN or tri-clamp connections for glycol in and out, CO2, and sampling. Carbonation stones are optional. If you plan to carbonate in-tank, say so before fabrication, because jacket area and port positions change.

FAQ. Conical bottom or flat? For ale and lager, conical, so yeast drops clean. Flat-bottom suits open fermentation or cask work. Can one tank ferment and carbonate? Yes, at 0.2 MPa rating, but only with the right port and stone setup. How is CIP handled? Spray ball plus a dedicated return line; the mixer shaft needs a removable seal assembly to clean properly. Small brewpubs usually take a single 1000L tank with a simple control panel, while commercial plants run several in parallel with a shared glycol chiller and PLC temperature logging.

Although there were a few minor issues, thanks to Polly’s help, it looks brilliant and has brought my little distillery quite a few new customers.
Very good！！I see now in my texting to you that in my excitement over having the installation here in the USA I totally forgot to give you and the company of ACE a very big compliment on the quality of the whole Installation!! It all looks fabulous and the way you packed it in the container was extraordinary!! I am very impressed with your company and want to say a big thank you to everybody who worked on my order!!
We have been using this still for a few batches now making whiskey, gin and a few other spirits and we are very happy with the results so far. The gear works well and gives good control during distillation. The spirit comes out clean and consistent from batch to batch and we have gotten the flavor profile we were looking for. It has also been easy to operate and maintain. It has been a great addition to our distillery and I’d definitely recommend it to other craft distillers looking for reliable equipment.”
