Abstract
An improved homebrewing conical fermentor having pressure capability for CO2 pumping and carbonation, without welding onto the tank, which can lead to contamination of the fermenting product. In addition, the fermentor support legs remain permanently affixed to the tank without introducing any welding flaws on the inside of the tank. A removable access hatch is provided, again without any welding onto the tank lid. A lid seal is provided with a bead that improves sealing capability against the tank lip. Lastly, a removable lid design utilizing a band clam that eliminates the need to weld the lid to the tank and allows for easy access to the interior of the fermentor for cleaning and sanitation.
