Your beer fermenters and unitanks provide you with the means to create your beer at a consistent level of quality. Unfortunately, nothing lasts forever. Eventually, you’ll need to replace your unitanks with newer versions. While these pieces of beer brewing equipment can last a long time, you shouldn’t hold onto them for too long once you notice something off. Be aware of these signs that you should replace your brewery unitanks if you want to avoid future issues.
YOU CAN’T EFFECTIVELY CLEAN IT ANYMORE
An effective beer unitank should be very easy to clean and sanitize so that nothing can influence the next batch of beer you put into it. However, using a beer unitank incorrectly or leaving something to ferment for too long can affect how easy it is to clean. If you notice any visible staining or a smudge that you can’t get off, no matter how many times you clean it, it might be time for a replacement.
YOUR BEER CONTINUALLY COMES OUT POOR
The clearest sign that you’ll need to replace your beer unitanks is if they just can’t seem to produce high-quality beer anymore. There are a variety of reasons why this could be, but if you’ve checked every other variable and can’t seem to understand why your beer keeps resulting in a strange taste, your beer unitank could be the issue. Don’t waste more materials and time than you need to once you’ve determined that the beer unitank won’t work for you anymore.
YOUR YEAST KEEPS MUTATING
Collecting and re-pitching a particular strain of yeast is a common practice among brewers in order to ensure consistency between batches. However, yeast can mutate over time, especially if you consistently use the same strain. What you’ll want to watch out for is if your yeast seems to mutate very quickly after putting it in your beer unitank. If this happens repeatedly, your beer unitank might have an issue where it’s letting outside contaminants in that can alter your yeast in unwanted ways.
THERE’S NOTICEABLE DAMAGE
Speaking of outside contaminants, your beer unitank needs to be able to fully block out the outside environment in order to protect your fermenting beer. Accidents happen, obviously, and beer unitanks can be damaged and still work perfectly fine. If your beer unitank is damaged and you soon start finding that your beer isn’t coming out as good as you’d hoped, it’s possible that damage has made your unitank less fit for service than before.
