Manage your fermentation temperature accurately, every time! Temperature control is one of the most crucial elements for producing a beer of good quality. It must be regulated throughout the fermentation process and be stable to ensure that the yeast does not get stressed and ferments properly to get the right taste profile. With the ability to individually control and regulate the temperature of up to four Grainer Conical yeast machines, each with their own yeast schedules, the Grainfather Glycol Chiller is the perfect complement to ensure superior fermentation results.
Design: With a slim and compact design, which is still suitable for our full range of functions, the Glycol chiller maintains the Grainfather principle of delivering high-quality home-brewery equipment, which delivers craft breweries such as results, with a small footprint. With the addition of the Glycol Chiller your system works at the ultimate level and you are even able to crash cold and lower to 4 ° C (39 ° F). The Glycol chiller is connected to a concealed cooler, located between the two stainless steel walls of the conical digester. . Your desired temperature is fed into the digital temperature controller on the conical digester, the liquid then flows through this sleeve and cools the stainless steel, which in turn cools the beer in the digester. The cooling sleeve never comes into contact with the beer, is completely hidden and does not need to be cleaned or disinfected. A real innovation for a fermenter on this scale.
Characteristics:
Allows you to cold-crash 23L (6 US Gal) wort to a temperature of 4-6ºC (39-43 ° F). The minimum temperature will vary based on external factors such as room temperature, the number of connected fermenters and other environmental conditions.
Cools up to 4 conical fermenters at different temperatures and fermentation schedules.
Includes a connection kit and propylene glycol to provide you with efficient cooling for your digester immediately.
Note:
The instructions for the Glycol Chiller are attached to the outside of the shipping box. It is important that you keep them, do not throw them away and read them carefully before use to ensure that no damage is caused to the device. If for any reason you are not included in your purchase, we strongly recommend downloading a new one.
Temperature control is one of the most crucial elements for producing a beer of good quality. It must be regulated throughout the fermentation process and be stable to ensure that the yeast does not get stressed and ferment in the right way to get the right flavor profile.
To cool off with the Grainfather Conical Fermenter, you must have the Conical Fermenter Temperature Controller. As soon as your target temperature is lower than the temperature of the wort in your digester, the cooling pump set pumps ice-cold water through the double-walled, insulated interior to cool your wort.
Simply connect the couplings and insulated hoses to the Conical Fermenter, immerse the submersible pump in a cool box with water (add ice for the desired temperature) and pump the liquid through the insulated cooling of the Conical Fermenter housing.
To keep the Grainfather Glycol Chiller operating at its best, we recommend replacing the glycol/water mixture every 6 months. Enough to completely refill the Glycol Chiller and connect up to 4 Conical Fermenters, this food grade propylene glycol will keep the chiller running at its best, providing you with efficient cooling for your fermenters.
Ferment like never before!
The Grainfather Conical Fermenter Pro gives brewers professional fermentation control, just like the commercial breweries! The Grainfather Conical Fermenter Pro allows you to control the heating of your unit (and cooling with the Glycol Chiller), dump yeast, take samples and transfer wort via our innovative dual function valve design. The 60-degree (Golden Angle) cone allows for optimum yeast/sediment drop down, giving you clearer beer.
The Conical Fermenter Pro comes with a built-in controller with wireless connectivity and sleek digital display. Wherever you are, you can access your fermenter's data through the Grainfather app.

The GCA is designed to expand on the capabilities of the Grainfather Glycol Chiller, by allowing almost any fermenter on the market to be connected, and temperature controlled - including most plastic bucket fermenters!
The Glycol Chiller Adapter works in a similar way to the Conical Fermenter Pro but instead of the built-in cooling sleeve and heating element, it uses a stainless steel cooling coil and a heating pad to control the temperature of almost any fermenter.
The cooling coil is connected to the Glycol Chiller and immersed in the fermenter. The heating pad is attached to the side of the fermenter using hook and loop tape. A temperature probe is also attached to the fermenter and the GCA will then regulate the cooling, or heating, as required.
The GCA connects to the Grainfather App so you can control your fermentation temperature on the go
Convenient supervision for the fermenting process
The professional version of the fermentation control is the Gärmeister CONTROL. It is the perfect one tank control if you own a Speidel stainless steel fermentation tank with a cooling jacket and a thermal detector. Besides the simple desired temperature control it is possible to use fermentation programs with up to five different phases, which allow you to specify the temperature and time for each medium. The settings can be altered via a touch screen display. The Gärmeister CONTROL has outlets for the cooling circuit control valve and an optional heating circuit. The scope of delivery includes a control valve, a two metres cable, a thermal detector and a 24 volt power connection with international connectors.
A fundamental factor for producing great wine is a well-controlled fermentation process. The wine maker has the temperature control as a means of intervention in the process of fermentation. However it is not only about reaching an “optimal” temperature but rather about having the right temperature at each stage of the fermentation process. An electronic temperature control offers safety during the fermentation, saves time, energy, costs, and above all, serves to improve the quality of your wine.
The temperature controller for individual tanks FermFix, with an integrated temperature sensor and a data interface that can be connected to a PC, represents one of the methods of electronic temperature control. The controller is screwed directly into the tank by means of an immersion socket. This allows the wine maker to set or re-set the temperature right at the tank. As a safety measure, it is possible to determine a temperature range above or beneath which an optic alarm will be given.
The controller’s double display shows the actual and preset temperature (value) in separate displays. Additionally, a LED light shows the actual mode of operation: cooling or heating.
The FermFix is available in two versions – with a lose cable end for a fixed installation or with a plug end – ‘Vario’ - for a variable installation. As accessory we have available for both versions connection boxes – FIX or VARIO – for running a comfortable and simple installation. This temperature controller is the ideal solution for every wine maker who wishes to have the temperature displayed right on the tank and who prefers a fixed installation of the temperature controller on the tank. The FermFix can also be software controlled with the VinInfo software. Adjustment of tank temperature can be made either physically on the tank or in the office through the software installed on a PC Server. The FermFix controller can also be completely integrated in the bus system VinInfo.
