Vapour Condenser

A vapour condenser is an essential element in breweries that plays an important role in beer production. During the boiling process in the wort kettle, water vapour containing flavor compounds and unwanted volatile compounds is produced. The vapour condenser is used to capture, remove, and condense this vapour. This helps to minimize emissions into the environment and the premises.

Functionality & Benefits

The vapour condenser essentially consists of a vapour pipe, condenser, and drain. By injecting finely atomized cold water into the condenser, a slight vacuum is created compared to the surface of the wort in the wort kettle. This vacuum causes the vapours (steam that is generated during boiling in the wort kettle) to flow out through the vapor pipe into the condenser.

When the steam comes into contact with the cold water in the condenser, the steam condenses into water and runs down through the drain.
