When the beer is fermenting or needing to go somewhere so it can mature. The question then becomes where to store it, which puts brewers in the throws of the debate of unitank vs. brite tank. Which to choose? We’re here to put the question to rest.
Choosing Between the Tanks
When To Choose a Unitank
Unitanks are the perfect choice for microbreweries or brewpubs. For these facilities, space is often limited, the brewery isn’t producing as many barrels of beer, and the emphasis is less on packaging and more on serving brews directly. Unitanks work well in these contexts because they save space and labor without muddling the productivity of a separate packaging team.
When To Choose a Brite Beer Tank
Brite tanks are better for larger-scale productions, especially productions that rely on packaging and shipping much of their product. Brite tanks allow you to leave more fermenters open at a time. And because brite tanks can carry more liquid in them at a time, they lend themselves to larger beer outputs. Generally, if you’ve gone over the edge and are brewing more barrels than a microbrewery, it may be a good idea to look at a brite tank.
What Tiantai Offers
As a brewery tanks manufacturer, Tiantai knows that choosing the right tank is essential for your brewery to function well. That’s why we offer a number of different features on our high-quality unitanks and brite tanks that are designed to help serve your company’s needs.
Jacketed Tanks
As with all other parts of the brewing process, fermentation is a process that requires precision. That is especially true of temperature control. If the temperature is not kept at the perfect levels, you risk the yeast not fermenting at a proper rate. Even during the maturation process, improper temperature control can impact the beer’s carbonation and clarity. That’s why our jacketed tanks are well insulated for maximum temperature control.
“One-Touch” Racking Arm
When you have a conical brew tank, a racking arm is a must for removing sediment out of your beer for the highest clarity. But, as useful as they are, rack arms can be cumbersome to manage. That’s where our “one-touch” racking arms are different. They are able to be rotated simply by turning a handle without loosening any clamps. Along with this, the pivoting inner tube rotates separately from the tri-clamp connecting outer fitting. This ensures there are no leaks.
CIP Spray Balls
As we mentioned, outside contaminants lead to awful beer. So, cleaning the tanks regularly is essential for good beer. However, the harder it is to clean the tanks, the more likely it is that bacteria will be left behind. Fortunately, our tanks come equipped with clean-in-place spray balls designed to reach the entire interior of the tank effectively. This means a cleaner tank with less effort for you and your employees.
Our tanks are well made, and with nearly thirty years of experience, we are well-equipped to help you make the choice that’s best for your company.
