Main Types of Tek Machinery Stainless Steel Wine Tanks I. Classification by Function

Materials: Food-grade 304 or 316L stainless steel.

TEK Machinery wine tanks are categorized into five types by function, open design, structure shape, pressure rating, and temperature control configuration.

I. Classification by Function

1. TEK Machinery Fermentation Tanks (for fermentation)

A TEKBREW Open top Fermentation Tanks

Fully open top; suitable for red wine fermentation with skins. Facilitates manual punch-down and pump-over for pigment and tannin extraction; 

optional removable lids available. Usually feature conical or sloped bottoms for easy discharge of skins and lees.

B TEKBREW Closed top Fermentation Tanks

Fully sealed; equipped with a breather valve to release fermentation CO₂ and prevent oxidation. Primarily used for white and rosé wine fermentation. 

Features include manways, sampling ports, and CIP spray balls. Most are equipped with cooling jackets for temperature control.

C TEKBREW Variable Capacity Tanks (Floating Lid)

Feature an internal floating seal lid that descends as the liquid level drops, eliminating headspace and preventing oxidation. 

Suitable for fermentation, batch storage, and post-racking aging; commonly used by small-to-medium wineries.

2. TEK Storage and Aging Tanks (for storage, blending, and cold stabilization)

Single-layer storage tanks: No temperature control jacket; used for storage and blending within temperature-controlled cellars. Flat or dished bottoms; cost-effective.

Jacketed storage tanks: Feature temperature control jackets; suitable for cold stabilization, low-temperature aging, and maintaining wine temperature.

Compared to fermentation tanks, storage tanks have smaller manways, do not require skin handling capabilities, and have lower cooling jacket coverage.

3. Pressure Tanks (for sparkling wine)

Pressure-resistant tanks designed for Charmat-method sparkling wine. Capable of in-tank secondary fermentation and carbonation; 

equipped with safety valves to withstand internal pressure. Cannot be replaced by standard still wine tanks.

4. Transfer / Blending Tanks

Used for temporary grape juice storage, blending different wines, and buffering prior to bottling; highly versatile.
