Cider fermentation tank is designed for fermenting apple juice (or pear juice for perry) into hard cider. Cider fermentation presents unique challenges, including slow fermentation rates, low nutrient availability in apple juice, and high sensitivity to oxidation and sulfur dioxide levels.
Typical Applications:
Primary and secondary fermentation of apple and pear juice
Aging and clarification
Carbonation (in pressure-rated tanks)
Blending and maturation
