A PROJECT ?
Mastering temperature is the beating heart of your fermentation.
A failure in a controller, a damaged probe, or a stuck solenoid valve in the middle of fermentation can quickly compromise the quality of a batch or even paralyze your production line.
Whether you need an emergency spare part to maintain service continuity, or you want to design your own custom temperature‑control system, explore our complete range of accessories, controllers, and thermal‑management spare parts for breweries.
1. Maintenance and production continuity: Replace components without interrupting your brews
In a professional brewery, every regulation component must be replaceable quickly to avoid any prolonged thermal drift:
- Backup regulators and controllers: Keep a standalone thermostat (such as the classic Inkbird ITC‑308) in your workshop. Ready to plug in, it can immediately take over in case of failure on a central controller or cellar control cabinet.
- System ecosystem components (Brewtools FCS…): Replace or add modules specific to your existing installations, such as 5" Wi‑Fi/Bluetooth touchscreen displays, solenoid‑valve controllers, or PT100/PT1000 temperature probes.
- Probes and thermowells: Ensure accurate readings by replacing worn or oxidized sensors that may send incorrect signals to your cooling unit.
2. Designing your custom regulation system (Pro DIY)
To equip non‑jacketed tanks, optimize small capacities, or build a modular regulation network, several sanitary and electronic components can be adapted to your needs:
- Smart and connected regulation (RAPT, Inkbird): Control your temperature setpoints remotely via Wi‑Fi or Bluetooth. RAPT controllers allow you to program complex fermentation profiles and monitor temperature curves in real time through a Cloud dashboard.
- Tri‑Clamp immersion heating elements (e.g., Warming Wizard Wand TC 2"): Ideal for temperature rises (diacetyl rest, warm fermentations such as Kveik/Saison) on stainless‑steel fermenters. Their TC 2" flange mounting ensures perfect sanitary sealing and simplified CIP cleaning.
- Immersion cooling coils (e.g., TC 4" coil): Designed to be inserted directly from the top of the dome via a 4" Tri‑Clamp flange. They allow glycol water to circulate at the core of the wort in tanks without a double cooling jacket.
3. Summary table: Key components of your temperature‑control chain
| Component Type | Equipment Example | Main Use & Brewery Benefit |
|---|---|---|
| Plug & Play Regulator | Inkbird ITC‑308 Dual Relay | Immediate backup solution, simple control of heating belts or solenoid valves. |
| Connected / Cloud Regulator | RAPT Wi‑Fi Controller | Temperature‑profile programming, remote graphical monitoring, batch traceability. |
| Stainless Immersion Heater | Warming Wizard Wand TC 2" (500W) | Temperature maintenance and increase inside wort with sanitary Tri‑Clamp sealing. |
| Immersion Cooling | Stainless cooling coil TC 4" | Internal heat exchanger for simple tanks and fermenters without cooling jackets. |
| Network & Automation Module | Brewtools FCS 5" Display Module | Central CAN‑bus display and control unit for advanced Brewtools installations. |
Rolling Beers Technical Team Insight
Build your thermal emergency kit in the workshop! A failed temperature probe or a burnt relay on a tank’s control channel is the kind of mishap that always happens at the worst moment. We recommend always keeping in your brewery a backup thermostat (Inkbird or RAPT type), two spare PT100/PT1000 probes, and a few Tri‑Clamp gaskets of the appropriate diameter (TC 2" or 4"). In case of mechanical or electronic trouble, you’ll be able to react in under 5 minutes and save your fermenter’s setpoint temperature!
