Transparent 30 L fermentation container, with a swivel tap and a lid – gauge, for fermenting beer, wine, and sugar batches
It is a cost-effective complete set that will allow you to prepare your favourite homemade liquor. The 30 L container is made of transparent plastic approved for contact with food, characterised by high strength and elasticity. Thanks to that you can easily monitor the progress of fermentation without having to open the container’s lid. The containers have a certificate of the Polish National Institute of Hygiene (PZH), approving them for contact with food products. They are also resistant to discolouring caused by contact with tannins from the fruit. The lid with an opening and fermentation stopper with plug included in the kit enable sealing the container or installing an airlock. Meanwhile, drilling an extra opening allows installing an angular tube and conducting fermentation in multiple stacked containers at the same time. The swivel tap included in the set enables convenient decanting of beer, wine, and other batches from above the sediment.
Container and lid made of polypropylene, BPA-free product.
How to use:
In order to facilitate opening the container, it is necessary to open the lid slightly, slide e.g. a teaspoon handle into the resulting gap, and then pull that object around the rim of the container.
It is not recommended to clean the containers using rough washcloths, as this may cause scratches on the surface that might become a source of contamination.
When installing the tap on the container it is necessary to place the gasket on the outer side of the container. This ensures full tightness.
NOTE: These containers can be tightened further by smearing the container rim with petroleum jelly or edible oil. Before preparing the batch, the fermentation container should be disinfected thoroughly using potassium metabisulphite.
Maximum batch temperature allowed: 85°C.
The temperature of the containers prior to filling should be at least 5°C.
Maximum alcohol concentration in the batch: 50%.
The set includes:
- a 30 L fermentation container with a gauge and writing in English/German/Russian language
- lid with an opening,
- fermentation stopper with plug - universal,
- discharge swivel tap.
Storage with UV Protection
To prevent damage caused by UV radiation, empty or filled containers must not be stored outdoors. If this is not possible due to storage conditions, containers and lids should be stored in a way that protects them from UV radiation. This can be done, for example, by covering pallets with containers and lids with a UV-resistant plastic tarpaulin.
Storage of Empty Containers
Since containers and lids are sensitive to weather conditions, they should be stored in a dry place at a constant temperature. This not only protects them from moisture but also effectively prevents water condensation, which could damage packaging, particularly those decorated with offset prints, IML applications, or digital prints. Furthermore, despite the use of antistatic agents, dust or dirt contamination cannot be ruled out, so storage in a clean room is necessary.
Every country has its own legal regulations governing the manufacturing of ethyl alcohol, wine products, and spirits, introducing them onto the market, and regarding sanctions for non-compliance.
