Wort Aeration Plus - Static Mixer
Static Mixers for Wort Aeration – Advanced Inline Mixing for Optimal Fermentation
Achieving the correct wort aeration levels is critical for fast and effective fermentation. Alongside proper yeast pitching and yeast health, wort aeration plays a key role in ensuring the right environment for yeast to thrive. The Static Mixers are designed to efficiently blend air or oxygen into your wort, ensuring consistent dissolved oxygen levels for optimized fermentation. These mixers utilize the wort's flow energy, transforming a laminar gas-liquid phase into a turbulent, fully integrated fluid phase, which is ideal for yeast absorption.
Unlike traditional mixing methods, static mixers contain no moving parts, making them a highly reliable and low-maintenance solution. The inline installation ensures continuous blending directly in the pipeline, providing an even distribution of gases and fluids. These mixers are backed by authoritative brewing references such as Kunze's Technology Brewing & Malting and Bolton & Quain’s Brewing Yeast and Fermentation, confirming their efficacy in achieving efficient wort aeration.
Key Features:
- 304 Stainless Steel Construction: Provides strength, corrosion resistance, and long-lasting performance in brewing environments.
- Length-to-Diameter Ratio of 6-8: Optimized for effective mixing, ensuring thorough gas-liquid integration.
- Tri-Clamp Connections: Ensures a secure, sanitary connection for easy installation and disassembly.
- Easy Disassembly for Cleaning: The static mixer can be easily removed for regular cleaning, maintaining hygiene standards in your brewhouse.
Available Sizes for Different Brewhouse Capacities:
- 10-20hL (8-15bbl) Brewhouse: Features a 1.5" Tri-Clamp connection and a 13.75" overall length, perfectly suited for medium-scale brewing operations.
- 20-30hL (15-25bbl) Brewhouse: Features a 2" Tri-Clamp connection and a 15.75" overall length, ideal for larger brewing systems.
How Static Mixers Enhance Wort Aeration
The static mixer achieves proper aeration by breaking up the separate gas and liquid phases within the wort, turning the flow into a turbulent, homogeneous mixture. This significantly improves the wort's oxygen absorption, supporting yeast health and promoting faster fermentation. By eliminating moving parts, static mixers offer a robust and energy-efficient way to oxygenate wort inline, reducing manual intervention and maintaining precision.
Whether you’re brewing beer at a commercial scale or a craft brewery level, these Static Mixers provide a professional solution for achieving consistent wort aeration. The Tri-Clamp fittings allow for quick and hygienic assembly and disassembly, making cleaning and maintenance a breeze.
