Blichmann Conical Fermenator

The Blichmann Engineering™ Spunding Valve is purpose-built for pressure fermentation. With exacting precision, you’ll turn out lager-like beer at ale temperatures in no time! Pressurized fermentation is a great option for creating lager-like flavor profiles at room temperature, without the hassle of temperature control. And you’ll complete your fermentations faster and easier. The Blichmann Engineering™ Spunding Valve is purpose built for homebrewers to control your pressures with exacting precision. Research by Blichmann Engineering™ and White Labs shows significant reduction of esters (fruity flavors found in most ales) and low levels of diacetyl, by fermenting under pressure. Key Features: Ferment under pressure to produce clean, low ester, lager-like beers Extremely fine adjustments from 0 to 35 psi, and superb pressure stability Suitable for vessels up to 42 gal (1BBL batch size) Perfect for naturally carbonating your beers Use for counter-pressure transfers Offered in ½” NPT and Tri-clamp models for the ultimate in adaptability Integral blow-off barb fitting adds a visual indication of fermentation if desired Tri-Clamp model is ideal for most pressure fermentors with T.C. fittings Also available in NPT model (BL151)

Take full control of your fermentation with the Fermenator™ G4 – Cooling System from Blichmann Engineering. Specifically designed for use with our Fermenator™ G4 Conical Fermenters, this system gives you precise fermentation temperature control — a key factor in producing consistent, high-quality beer, cider, and other fermented beverages. Built by brewers, for brewers, it’s the reliable solution your fermentation process needs. Designed for Performance and Cleanability The heart of this fermenter cooling system is a 304 stainless steel cooling coil. It’s easy to clean, resists corrosion, and is made for long-term use. The coil features max flow technology to keep your cooling liquid circulating smoothly and evenly, improving chill efficiency and stability. A tri-clamp port makes setup fast, secure, and sanitary — just clamp it into place and connect your chilling lines. Whether you’re lagering at 50°F or keeping an ale steady in summer heat, this system gives you pro-level temperature control in any season. It works seamlessly with glycol chillers or other cooling setups, making it a flexible solution for both homebrewers and pilot-scale pros. Fits All G4 Fermenter Sizes We offer four models of the Fermenator™ G4 – Cooling System, each tailored to match our fermenter lineup: 7-gallon, 14-gallon, 19-gallon, and 1 BBL. The 1 BBL model is especially popular with startups and nano-breweries for its reliable performance and scalability. Whether you’re just starting out or scaling up, there’s a fit for your fermenter.

In 2004, the Fermenator™ revolutionized the homebrew market as the first pressure capable homebrew conical. We are proud to announce the latest model: the Fermenator™ G4. Reimagined from the ground up, this true unitank leverages our 20+ years of experience in home and pro brewing, and our reputation of innovation. From the welded tri-clamp fittings, the 15 PSI capability, the always-sanitary aseptic racking arm, the external level gauge, and many other purpose-built accessories, you’ll find that the Fermenator™ G4 stands in a league of its own. Most competitors nickel-and-dime you with needed, but not included accessories like a sampling valve or racking arm! But not the Fermenator™ G4. We include more standard accessories than the competition at a value no one can beat. Features: Welded Tri-Clamp Fittings: All fittings are 1.5” tri-clamps and are sanitary welded into the heaviest gauge tank and lid on the market. Pressure Capable Unitank: With 15 PSI (1 BAR) pressure capability, and the included integral pressure relief valve, you can ferment under pressure for reducing fruity esters in your beers, pressure transfer beer into kegs, or carbonate and use as a serving vessel. Aseptic Racking Valve: The revolutionary patent pending aseptic racking valve takes the struggle out of keeping your sampling valve sanitary. Similar to pharmaceutical grade sampling valves, the new G4 aseptic valve can be filled with sanitizer between uses so all wetted surfaces always remain sanitized. No spraying. No worrying. No contamination. Brushed Exterior, Polished Interior: Let’s admit it - our breweries are show-pieces for friends and families. And we work hard to keep them looking new. Like our Pro Brewing equipment, we’ve selected a sleek brushed exterior finish that is significantly easier to keep free of stains and fingerprints and gives that true pro-look to your brewery. Lastly, we’ve put a mirror polish on the interior to improve cleaning and yeast sedimentation. Positive Seal Racking Arm: Loosening a racking arm clamp can lead to beer leaking from the joint, or worse yet, a clamp popping off and causing the loss of the full batch of beer. We’ve included an integral seal to eliminate beer leaks, and a long position indicating pin to allow the fitting to be easily rotated with minimal loosening of the clamp. Dial Thermometer: The included tri-clamp thermometer reads in F and C, and the scale is perfect for fermentation temps. Dimensions: Tank Height: 32.38" Foot Height: 1.5" Depth (Front and Back): 17.25" Width: 13.50" Batch Size: 5 Gallons
