Made from 304 grade stainless steel, this heated fermenter features dual element control switches, a stainless steel ball valve tap and an automatic reset switch.

Fermentation temperature is one of the most important variables in producing quality neutral spirit.

Yeast has an optimal temperature range — too cold and fermentation stalls or slows, producing incomplete fermentation and lower yield.

Too warm and the yeast becomes stressed, producing excess congeners and off-flavours that carry through into the distillate.

Most sheds and garages in Australia swing well outside the ideal 18–24°C range depending on the season. The heated fermenter solves this by maintaining consistent temperature regardless of ambient conditions. The dual element control switches provide precise power control — both switches on gives full power at 2200W for quick heating; one switch off drops to 1100W for maintaining temperature.

Adjusting the power is useful in areas with warmer tap water for cooling.
