Stackable tanks come in both a round version and a rectangular version. Stackable tanks are recommended for facilities with limited space and storage capacity. The tanks are designed for storage under atmospheric pressure, with glycol jacketing for temperature control.

The following should be taken into account for stackable tanks:

• No more than three tanks in one stack
• The volume of the lowest tank must be at least 40% of the entire stack volume.
• The stack height must be no more than 11 feet (3.5 meters).
• Available in a 3 sizes with a range of options to choose from. Many different sizes and options to choose from.
• Only tanks of same diameters can be stacked and the carrying capacity of the basic tank should always be strictly observed.
• On request, storage tanks can be equipped with temperature regulating elements and other special technical equipment (different
• manways, valves, legs with adjustable base, agitators, etc.).

Proudly handcrafted in France, using all natural ingredients, spring water, clay-based cement, Loire sand and Burgundy gravel. Designed without corners, wine circulates naturally during fermentation which encourages the cap to remain submerged.

Concrete is a natural insulator and breathes like oak which contributes to the micro-oxygenation of wines.

Suitable for all types of wines, the Concrete Eggs Tanks are a mix of ancient and modern winemaking techniques.
Available in a range of sizes and accessories including a selection of exterior designs.

Prospero Equipment offers closed top and open top fermenters with pump-over, punch-down and seed removal capabilities. Designed with a computer interface for programming and precise fermentation cycles. All fermenters are fitted with double cooling jackets for temperature control through a computer interface. Fermenters are equipped with software that tracks the entire fermentation process at all times. Seed accumulation is monitored through an observation sight-glass. The tank bottom has a truncated cone equipped with a scraper and metering hatch for removing seeds and skins easily.

Cap submerging pneumatic, punch-down agitator combined with a pump-over system, controlled by computer interface.
Double jacketed and bottom heaters with cooling/warming regulating equipment for temperature control.

Custom options are available.

Punch-down fermenters are equipped with a cap submerging system, which consists of a punch-down agitator, pneumatic cylinder and a control unit. Designed with a computer interface for programming and precise fermentation cycles. All fermenters are fitted with double cooling jackets for temperature control through a computer interface. Fermenters are equipped with software that tracks the entire fermentation process at all times. We offer open and closed punch-down fermenters and a special design: the punch-down fermenter with a seed removal system. An inclined bottom with a large rectangular door for easy discharge.

Type FPK tanks are variable capacity tanks. These tanks are equipped with a control panel and removable punch down device to automatically set the time and duration of each punch down. The dismantling lid can be lifted by means of special lid fittings and attached to the reinforced upper rim. One lid can be used for several tanks with same diameter and the reinforced upper rim. The dismantling lid is equipped with the cap submerging system (pneumatic cylinder, submerged agitator) and the system of pumping must over the cap (pumping pipe, rotating sprayer). Tanks can also be equipped with a pump over tube and mounted pump on the tank for automatic pump overs if desired.

Custom options are available.

Type PK Tanks are Fixed Capacity Tanks. These tanks are also equipped with a control panel and a punch down device to automatically set the time and duration of each punch down. These PK fermenters enable both maceration techniques: maceration with the cap submerging system and the system of pumping must over the cap if desired.

The control unit enables setting submerging cycles, switching on/off of the must pump, regulation of temperature, switching on/off of the scraper and pips discharge valve.

There are five preset programs available, which the user can adapt and change according to the development of maceration.
Inclined bottom and large rectangular manway (optional: sliding hatch) enable a fast and simple emptying of the fermenter.
The entire cap-submerging construction can be removed and the fixed capacity fermenter used as an ordinary tank for must fermentation or as a wine storage tank under atmospheric pressure.

Fixed capacity and variable capacity pump-over fermenters are designed for re-circulating the juice evenly over the cap surface by a rotating sparger. Designed with a computer interface for programming and precise fermentation cycles. All fermenters are fitted with double cooling jackets for temperature control through a computer interface. Fermenters are equipped with software that tracks the entire fermentation process at all times. These fermenters can also be used as a classic wine storage tanks.

We offer different pump-over fermenter designs:

• open pump-over fermenters with a floating lid and a dismantling system for must pumping;
• closed pump-over fermenters;
• cone-shaped pump-over fermenters, whose shape brings back the tradition of ancient cooperage. The cone-shaped jacket slows down lees lifting, enables more efficient cap submerging and breaking while enhancing the extraction of phenols and aromas.

Custom options available upon request.

Two inch pump over tube is equipped on the tank for easy of use to achieve a pump over. An optional must pump and control panel can also be mounted on the frame of the tank to turn on automatically at any desired time and duration by the winemaker.

The inclined bottom enables an easy liquid discharge and a simple emptying of the fermenter. Reinforced upper rim (piped reinforcement) gives the tank strength and stability and prevents any deformations of the tank wall. On the variable capacity stlye the upper pumping pipe and the rotating sprayer are removed and a variable capacity lid is used.

On request, fermenters can be equipped with temperature regulating equipment and other special technical equipment (valves, adjustable legs, agitators, etc.), as specified by the customer.
