Description
Stainless IBC Totes for Olive Oil and Wine Fermentation
Wineries and olive mills need flexible capacity without a fixed tank farm. Our 1000–5000 L stainless IBC totes are sanitary vessels for fermentation, settling, storage and transport. They fit standard IBC forklifts and racking. The difference is inside: controlled weld quality, surface finish and outlet placement instead of a generic chemical tote.
For wine, the tank works as a small-lot fermenter. A 450 mm manway allows punch-down or must addition. The lid seals with a food-grade gasket and has a vent or airlock port for CO2. If fermentation temperature matters, add a clamp-on cooling plate or internal coil; a bare IBC in a warm cellar drifts with ambient conditions. Red ferments may need cap management, so consider a wider manway and platform.
Olive oil storage is about oxygen, sediment and cleaning. We use 304 for neutral oils; 316L where acidity or chlorides are higher. Internal welds are ground flush, pickled and passivated. Bottom outlets can be tri-clamp, DIN or flanged, with a slight cone or flat bottom for sediment removal. Airtight lids and nitrogen blanketing limit oxidation.
Every tank is pressure-tested, cleaned and inspected before shipment. Gaskets are EPDM or silicone, chosen for cleaning chemicals and product. Forklift pockets, stacking corners, discharge height and valve type are made to your site, not a catalog photo.
Typical Specifications
| Capacity | Material | Manway | Outlet | Options |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1000–2000 L | 304 / 316L | 450 mm | 2 in tri-clamp | Vent, airlock, cooling plate |
| 3000 L | 304 / 316L | 450 mm | 2 in tri-clamp | Internal coil, cone bottom |
| 4000–5000 L | 304 / 316L | 450–600 mm | 2–3 in tri-clamp | Stackable frame, CIP spray ball |
Surface finish is internal 2B or better; external brushed or pickled. Working pressure is atmospheric with low-pressure venting; these are not ASME pressure vessels. CIP uses a spray ball through the manway, but check drain slope and outlet size. Small wineries choose 1000–2000 L for trial lots; commercial cellars use 3000–5000 L for blending and storage.
FAQ
Can one tank handle wine and olive oil? Cleaning is possible, but flavor carryover and gasket compatibility make dedicated tanks safer. Separate gasket sets are available.
Do I need cooling? White and rosé fermentation need it. Red fermentation may need cooling during peak activity. An internal coil controls better than a clamp-on plate.

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.”
Polly is the man! I highly recommend him and this products they produce! I’m very satisfied. she communicates very well and the quality of workmanship is excellent! Shipping was exceptional. Thannks Polly and team
