Esau & Hueber - Model Fermex -Yeast Storage

The aerobic FERMEX system developed by ESAU & HUEBER is capable of vitalizing the harvesting yeast. CO² stored in the yeast cells is gently removed after the yeast harvest. Before pitching, the propagation phase of the operating yeast is activated by adding fresh wort as a nutrient substrate and by more aeration of the yeast suspension. This has a positive effect on the vitality and fermentation strength of the pitching yeast.The vitalization system is made up of one or more conventional yeast tanks, which can be supplemented with an external transfer and aeration unit, a temperature controller and a tank content measurement system.
