Description
10 BBL Conical Fermenter for Temperature-Controlled Brewing
This 10 BBL conical fermenter is a jacketed stainless tank for breweries that need consistent fermentation, yeast recovery, and crash cooling without moving beer between vessels. It suits ale and lager production, pilot-to-mid-size craft breweries, and contract brewing where batch repeatability matters. The cone and jacket layout allow you to hold temperature during active fermentation and pull yeast from the bottom port.
We build the tank in SUS304 as standard. For mixed-culture, sour, or highly acidic beers, 316L on product contact surfaces is available. Inner shells are typically 3 mm, outer cladding 2 mm, with dimpled glycol jackets on the cone and lower cylinder. TIG welds are ground, pickled, and passivated. Interior finish is 0.4–0.6 µm Ra; exterior is brushed or mirror-polished depending on your cellar look.
Each unit includes a pressure relief valve, CIP spray ball, racking arm, dry hopping port, sample valve, and 1.5 in. TC connections for glycol, CIP, and product. The PRV setting is matched to your working pressure, so the tank, fittings, and safety valve operate as one system rather than mismatched parts.

Practical Selection Notes
For 10 BBL batches, confirm your brewhouse yield and whether you want 20% headspace for high-krausen beers. A 60° cone works for most ales; a steeper cone helps with lager yeast and dry hopping. If your glycol chiller runs at 28–30°F, we size jacket area for crash cooling, not just fermentation. Small breweries often choose fewer tanks with more cooling capacity; commercial breweries may prefer dedicated fermenters and separate bright tanks.
FAQ
Can it handle pressure? Yes, with the correct PRV and fittings. Tell us your target carbonation and fermentation pressure.
How is CIP done? A rotating spray ball and 1.5 in. CIP arm clean the tank walls and cone. We can add a dedicated CIP pump package.
Do you customize? Yes. We adjust height, diameter, manway, ports, jacket coverage, and finish for your room and process.
Tell us your batch size, beer type, number of fermentation tanks and available space. We can recommend the tank volume, cooling area and configuration for your brewery.

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.”
