Hot Liquor Tank Benefits and Specifications
What makes the BREWHA hot liquor tank so extraordinary?
- This dual purpose hot liquor tank allows for heating strike or sparge water AND regulating wort temperature during mashing
- An easily removed heat exchange coil allows for easiest and most thorough cleanup
- Heavy duty stainless steel construction will give you a lifetime of brewing pleasure (and hold its resale value... for when you scale up to a microbrewery)
- Built in HERMS (Heat Exchange Recirculating Mash System) system which offers safest control of mash temperature for added security, repeatability and consistency
- Easy addition of electric heating element under the stainless steel coil for HERMS setup and heating sparge water
- Two ports for temperature sensors (not included but can be purchased here), one under the mash screen for controlling HERMS system and a second in the middle of the tank
- Sanitary tri-clamp fittings which are easiest to disassemble and reassemble
- There are no threaded or weld-free or bulkhead fittings that can leak or harbor microorganisms and are difficult to disassemble and clean
- No lips or crevices ensures best sanitation possible
- Mirror polish finish is the smoothest finish possible leaving no microscopic pores for bacteria to hide out.
