Sake tanks are mainly used in the beer brewing process, and have multiple functions such as filtering, cooling, storage and filling. After the beer is fermented and mature, there will be turbid substances such as yeast and cold solids in the fermentation liquid, which need to be removed by filtering. The filtered beer becomes clear and transparent. At this time, the wine is called "sake". Sake tanks are used to hold this kind of sake. It is a transitional container equipment for the packaging workshop to bottle and can the finished product.
Sake tanks are usually made of stainless steel and are cylindrical. There may be cooling pipes inside to control the temperature of the yeast through circulating cooling to ensure the stability of the quality of the beer. In addition, sake tanks may also be equipped with agitators and spray ball cleaning devices to ensure the cleaning and cooling effects. During the filling process, the wine in the sake tank is poured from the tank by vacuum pump or pump suction. The pressure in the tank can reach 0.3~0.5 MPa. In this state, it can effectively inhibit the growth of yeast and prevent the aging and deterioration of the wine.
In addition, sake tanks can also be used to store raw materials for brewing such as hops, rice, yeast, etc., as well as in transportation and sales. There is a small drainage hole at the bottom of the beer and sake tank, which can adjust the volume as needed, making it easy to transport and store. Before use, the tank must be cleaned and disinfected to ensure hygiene and safety.
