Centrifuge for craft cider clarification
Craft cider producers often face the challenge of maintaining product consistency and minimizing losses while reducing production time. Achieving clear, appealing cider without sacrificing yield is critical for optimizing the production process.

Improve clarity and yield with precise separation
The GEA HB Craft Cider Series is designed specifically for small and mid-sized cideries. This centrifuge skid features the patented hydry® ejection system, which achieves maximum solids concentration, resulting in 5 to 10 percent more cider yield from the same amount of raw ingredients. The hydrohermetic sealing prevents oxygen pick-up, ensuring product quality, while the hydrosoft feed system guarantees gentle handling of the cider. Easy-to-operate control modules allow seamless integration into existing piping matrices, delivering efficient operation with minimal maintenance. The system significantly cuts down production times by optimizing all clarification steps, enhancing production efficiency, and accelerating time to market.
Benefits
- Increases cider yield by 5 to 10 percent
- Reduces oxygen pick-up for better quality
- Minimizes product losses during processing
- Accelerates production times for faster output
- Easy integration with existing infrastructure
