Key Features
* 3 Fermentation Tanks * Beer Well * Fermentation Building * Add More Detail & Walkways with Detail Kit #933-2981, Sold Separately
Fermentation tanks are where ethanol and carbon dioxide are produced as enzymes and yeast chemically break down simple sugars in a corn/water mixture called mash. The gas is collected for processing and ethanol-rich beer is returned to the processing center, via the slightly larger beer well tank, for distillation and further refining. During fermentation the mash in the tanks is continually circulated through temperature control and monitoring equipment housed in the structure between the tanks.
On your layout, fermentation tanks are a necessary part of an ethanol producing complex. This kit includes three tanks, one slightly larger beer well, plus the circulation and monitoring building that connects them to the Processing Center kit (sold separately).
A stairway tower, piping, walkways and carbon dioxide vent pipe can be added using the Fermentation Tank Detail Kit #933-2981, sold separately.
Note: Because the structure is designed to abut the Processing Center, if it is used as a stand-alone structure a scratchbuilt end wall will have to be fabricated.
