Description
The step from 2000L to 3000L is rarely about the vessel alone. It moves the cold room footprint, chiller duty, the number of fermenters you can run against one brewhouse, and how much beer waits in the bright tank before packaging. We build these as single-wall or jacketed units, and the volume should follow your weekly throughput rather than a catalog page.
Fabrication decisions that reach the glass
Shell and cone in SUS304 as standard. We switch the product contact surface to 316L when you run high-acid or sour programs, or when the same tank doubles as a bright beer tank. Interior welds are ground, pickled and passivated, with 0.4–0.8 µm polish on the cone and lower shell where yeast and trub settle.
Cooling comes from dimple or pillow jackets on the cone and lower cylinder, sized against your glycol supply temperature. Undersized jackets are the usual reason a 3000L tank will not crash cool overnight. Working pressure runs 0.15–0.3 MPa with a matching relief valve and a separate vacuum relief, since a blocked CIP return can pull a tank down faster than any overpressure event. Cleaning uses a rotating spray ball under the top manway; wort, CIP return, racking arm and glycol in/out are 1.5 in TC. Legs are adjustable, and we set outlet height to suit your floor drain and pump arrangement.

| 2500L | 3000L | 2500L | SUS304 / 316L | Cone + 2 cylinder zones | 0.3 MPa |

Questions buyers ask before ordering
Conical or dish bottom? A 60° cone sheds yeast cleanly and lets you harvest, so it suits ale and lager programs with repitching. Dish bottoms make sense for serving tanks where yeast drop is not the point.
Is 316L necessary? Not for standard wort. It earns its price with sour beer, kombucha, and any vessel that sees aggressive cleaning cycles.
Can ports be changed? Yes — dry hopping, sample valve position, carb stone and level sensor taps are set at drawing approval, not after fabrication.
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.”
