Easy & Efficient The FastFerment System is a one-stage fermenter, which allows brewers & winemakers to do primary & secondary fermentation in the same unit. FastFerment eliminates racking & transferring between buckets & carboys. This saves approximately 80% of the time & labor needed to make a batch of beer or wine compared to traditional methods. With less equipment, clean up is easy. Premium FastFerment is a professional system for the average Homebrewer & Winemaker. The conical design limits exposure to oxygen & allows for yeast harvesting. The end result is consistently high-quality batches of beer & wine. Benefits Over Traditional Conicals The downfall of other conical fermenters is that you have to ferment the product with the valve closed and then the sediment accumulates above the valve. When the fermentation is complete you have to open the valve and flush the sediment out the bottom. This results in two main issues: You need to time the flushing of the sediment perfectly to ensure minimal loss of product. As the sediment is flushed out, there will always be yeast and the sediment hazes that float up into the product remaining in the unit.
