Common Problems Customers Face During Fermentation

Fermentation generates heat. As yeast or bacteria convert sugars into alcohol, acids, or other products, the temperature inside the fermentation tank naturally rises. Uncontrolled heat can result in:

1. Beverage off-flavors or spoilage

2. Uncontrolled fermentation rates

3. Decreased product quality and stability

4. Increased scrap and waste of raw materials

Traditional cooling methods, such as simple ice water or ambient air cooling, no longer meet the demands of modern industry. Manufacturers require stable, precise, and energy-efficient cooling systems—which is exactly what glycol chillers are designed to do.

Why the Darko Glycol Chiller is the Perfect Solution?

The Darko industrial glycol chiller uses a mixture of water and food-grade propylene glycol to provide continuous cooling at low temperatures. Compared to purified water, glycol has a lower freezing point and greater thermal stability, making it an ideal choice for fermentation applications.

Key Benefits of the Darko Glycol Chiller in Fermentation:

1. Precise Temperature Control - The Darko glycol chiller maintains tight temperature ranges, ensuring consistent fermentation profiles.

2. Flexibility - A single glycol chiller can cool multiple fermenters and clarifiers simultaneously, making it cost-effective for expanding breweries or fermentation plants.

3. Freeze Protection - Unlike purified water, glycol prevents freezing in pipes and heat exchangers, ensuring uninterrupted operation.

4. Energy Savings - Modern industrial glycol chillers are designed for efficiency, maintaining consistent cooling while reducing operating costs.

5. Scalability - From small craft breweries to large fermentation facilities, glycol chillers can be customized to meet production needs. Darko Low-Temperature Chiller Applications

1. Breweries: Control fermentation temperatures, cool sake tanks, and maintain storage temperatures.

2. Wineries: Regulate fermentation in stainless steel tanks and stabilize wine during condensation.

3. Food and Beverage Production: Ensure safe and consistent fermentation of kombucha, kefir, or dairy products.

4. Biotechnology: Maintain precise conditions for microbial or enzymatic fermentation processes.

For the fermentation industry, reliable and stable cooling isn't just a nice-to-have; it's essential. A glycol chiller system not only ensures product consistency and quality, but also reduces risk and operating costs. Whether you're a craft brewer, winemaker, or operate a large-scale fermentation facility, investing in a glycol chiller is the best solution to your cooling challenges.
