Breweries face major challenges with open fermentation tanks. Manual cleaning with high-pressure cleaners and brushes is laborious, time-consuming, and poses safety risks. Long downtimes of up to 60 minutes due to repeated cleaning steps lead to production losses. Additionally, significant amounts of water and cleaning agents are consumed, increasing costs. Many breweries are therefore seeking a fully automated solution to reduce time, chemical use, and personnel costs.
A practical example shows that our targeted jet cleaner is perfect for open fermentation vats. In this case, the HydroWhirl Orbitor reliably cleans all interior wall areas with a 180° spray jet. Cleaning is carried out in 3–4 automated cycles without employees having to enter the tank. The entire cleaning process takes about 60 minutes. The advantages are considerable: it is safer, faster, and more resource-efficient. Water and cleaning agent consumption is reduced thanks to the targeted jet. We offer both fixed and mobile installations that can be easily adapted to different vat sizes. Additionally, the solution is easy to maintain, as customers can carry out maintenance themselves with the help of demo videos. Overall, breweries benefit from automated cleaning that is safe, efficient, and sustainable.
