Horizontal fermentation tanks for winemaking

Achieve optimal fermentation with minimal liquid lees through advanced cap management and precise temperature control, ensuring premium wine quality.

Facilitates Efficient Wine Fermentation and Grape Marc Handling

The Horizontal Fermentation Tanks from Sirio Aliberti S.r.l. are engineered to optimize winemaking processes by minimizing liquid lees and ensuring product quality. These tanks incorporate an inverter-controlled motor that adjusts the speed of rotating paddles for gentle cap punching down and efficient must displacement. Ideal for producing red, white, rosé, sparkling, and fortified wines, they seamlessly integrate into processing and final conditioning operations within wineries. The tanks offer variable-speed automation for precise control over fermentation conditions, employing a temperature conditioning pocket for optimal thermal management. They also feature automated unloading of grape marc, with an optional screw conveyor for mid-process extraction. Constructed for durability and efficiency, these tanks cater to wineries seeking streamlined operations and enhanced wine quality through customized configurations tailored to specific production needs.

Benefits
