As the equipment required in craft breweries, conical containers occasionally have different problems during use. Today we will talk about its common problems and solutions.1. Large leak tank When using conical vessels, it is a common feeling that there is air leaking in the main parts of the tank.

After the beer completes the primary fermentation process, we need to transfer the draft beer to aseptic storage tanks for the secondary fermentation process. Transfer takes 1-3 days. The ideal method of transfer is to remove the air from the tank with water, then remove the water along with the carbon dioxide to avoid exposure of the beer to oxygen.

Compared to shell and tube heat exchangers, plate heat exchangers have grown in popularity over the past few decades. Generally speaking, plate heat exchangers have higher heat transfer efficiency and occupy less space. These factors have helped spark brewery interest in plate heat exchangers as an alternative to shell and tube heat exchangers. There are two methods of cleaning plate heat exchangers: cleaning in place (done by circulating chemicals through the channels of the plate heat exchanger) or manual cleaning (removing the plates from the frame and using a pressurized water jet to clean the plates individually).

1. The pH value damages the enzyme. Throughout the saccharification process, pH often significantly impairs the activity of different enzymes. The high repetitive pH of the water leads to an increase in the pH of the mash, which reduces the uniqueness of the enzymes.
