These 58L stainless steel vessels are designed just like a commercial beer keg but with a large 10cm (4inch) tri-clover opening at the top so you can easily get inside the keg to clean it out. This new 58L Size is perfect for doing larger batches and so you have a bit of spare head space inside the Kegmenter.
This stainless steel Kegmenter comes with tri-clover lid with ball lock posts and pressure relief valve so can ferment under pressure. Gravity fermenting lid kit also available
The Kegmenter can hold 2.5bar which makes it possible to carbonate and ferment in the same vessel. You can either carbonate naturally with the use of our adjustable pressure relief valve(spunding valve) or if you are using a CO2 gas cylinder you can force carbonate.
Being able to hold pressure also means you can push the beer out of the fermenter directly through a filter or even dispense directly from fermenter to draft beer tap if you wanted to.
The chimes on the Kegmenters have specifically been designed to be taller than normal chimes so they are high enough to give clearance over the stainless posts on the Ball Lock Post Lid. This means the Kegmenters can be stacked. The interlocking stacking chimes means the kegs can be safely stacked up to 4 high.
This lid is ideally suited to also fermenting under pressure so you can use a spunding valve/adjustable pressure relief valve so you can naturally carbonate during primary fermentation.
The innovative design of the silicone dip tube with a stainless float means when you draw liquid from this kegmenter the liquid will always be drawn from the top 2.5cm of liquid meaning only the clearest wort/beer will be drawn from the kegmenter. This is particularly useful if you are dispending directly from the fermenter or simply want to separate clear liquid from sediment which has sunken to the bottom of the kegmenter.
MAKE SURE YOU DE-PRESSURISE THE KEGMENTER BEFORE LOOSENING THE TRI-CLAMP HOLDING THE LID
