A fermentation system includes a vessel defining a chamber for holding liquids and including a lower aperture, an insulating jacket disposed around the vessel, and a cooling fluid disposed between the insulating jacket and the vessel, the cooling fluid being in fluid communication with a fluid pump. A beverage line operably couples the lower aperture with a dispensing spigot, the beverage line being wrapped around the vessel and at least partially submerged in the fluid. The system further includes a collar disposed proximate the conical bottom portion of the vessel, the collar including a gasket in abutting contact with the insulating jacket.

Fermentation cooling system

A fermentation system having a vessel defining a chamber for holding liquids and including a lower aperture. An insulating jacket is disposed around the vessel. A cooling fluid is disposed between the insulating jacket and the vessel. The cooling fluid is in fluid communication with a fluid pump. A refrigerant line is wrapped around the vessel and is configured to cool the fluid and the vessel, resulting in cooling of liquids disposed in the chamber. A beverage line operably couples the lower aperture with a dispensing spigot. The beverage line is wrapped around the vessel and is at least partially submerged in the fluid. A sediment drain line is disposed below the lower aperture and configured to drain sediment that accumulates on a bottom of the vessel.

Fermenter bottle filler attachment

A heat distributing tray for use in a barbecue grill includes a corrugated unitary body of heat conducting material having alternating solid and grated walls which define channels. More specifically, the body includes first and second side portions defined by both solid walls which extend at gradually decreasing angles with respect to a common horizontal plane and varying length grated walls interconnecting the solid walls. In use, the tray is placed over one or more heating elements in a barbecue housing, with radiant and convective heat from the heating element being optimally distributed throughout the entire interior portion of the barbecue grill due to the relative structure and configuration of the solid walls in relation to the grated walls.
