Kombucha fermentation tank is a specialized container used for fermenting kombucha, a fermented tea beverage. These tanks are designed to provide the ideal environment for the symbiotic culture of bacteria and yeast (SCOBY) that ferments sweetened tea into kombucha.
A kombucha fermentation tank is a vessel used to brew kombucha, a fermented tea beverage. The fermentation tank is where the symbiotic culture of bacteria and yeast (SCOBY) interacts with sweetened tea to produce kombucha. These tanks can vary in size from small, home-brewing vessels to large, industrial-scale fermenters.
Material: Stainless steel is common for commercial tanks due to its durability, non-reactive surface, and ease of cleaning.
Size: For home brewers, typical tanks might hold 1 to 5 gallons. Commercial kombucha fermentation tanks can range from 10 to several hundred gallons.
Shape: Often cylindrical with a wide opening to allow easy access for cleaning and for the SCOBY to be removed or added.
Lid: The kombucha fermenter usually has a breathable lid, allowing gases produced during fermentation to escape while keeping contaminants out, also could be used for CIP purposes.
Drainage Valve: A valve at the bottom of the tank can make it easier to transfer the kombucha or to remove sediment.
Temperature Control: Some koumbucha fermentation tanks have built-in temperature controls to maintain the optimal temperature for fermentation, usually between 75°F and 85°F (24°C to 29°C).
Fermentation Time: Typically, kombucha is fermented for 7 to 14 days, depending on the desired flavor and strength.
