Beer – Yeast storage tanks

Installing an ISO-MIX system in the yeast storage tanks provides a mixing solution, which is:

• Sanitary
• Cost-effective
• Simple

ISO-MIX RJH offers a simple and sanitary mixing technology for yeast storage tanks, where traditional mixers - whether with magnetic coupling or mechanical seal - often becomes a source of contamination because they are difficult to clean properly.

An ISO-MIX system offers additional operation benefits such as:

• Aeration of the yeast before pitching
• Acid wash of the yeast
• CIP cleaning of the empty tank

Selection Guide
For a 100 hl yeast storage tank, an ISO-MIX IM 10 will be the right mixer. The mixer is operated sequentially, 5 minutes every 2 hours, to prevent the yeast from settling, and 15 minutes before pitching.
