It has a cooling jacket in the vertical wall, is rated for working pressure up to 2.0 bar (30 PSI) and is made of 1.5 mm stainless steel. Recommended working volume is 20–80 litres.
Connect the tank to a glycol chiller, for example from Quantor, for good control of the fermentation temperature.

Frequently asked questions about the Brewtools F80 Unitank
How much beer can I ferment in the F80?
Recommended working volume is 20–80 litres. Gross volume is 86 litres.
Can I ferment under pressure?
Yes. The tank is rated to 2.0 bar. A typical pressure for pressure fermentation is 0.7–1 bar, and many brewers ferment the first couple of days without pressure. You will need a spunding valve.
How do I cool the tank?
The cooling jacket in the wall connects to a glycol chiller via 34 mm TC. That lets you control fermentation temperature and chill down for a cold crash.
How is the tank delivered?
The F80 is too large and heavy for parcel delivery and is shipped on a pallet.
