During the fermentation there always be more or less a formation of slime, therefore the relevant parts of the plant should also be accessible during the fermentation process, if there would be an emergency cleaning necessary.
- During the whole fermentation process you have to measure the temperature inside the fermenter. Only by this way you can control the fermenting process perfectly.
- At the generator process, the bacteria are setting up at the packing material and there they are served with alcohol and air. Hence it ist necessary that the packing material is regulary sprinkled with alcohol, in the break air has to flow from bottom to top through the packing material. Take care that the packing material has got the perfect size that the air can flow without barrier through them.
- For the construction plan of a vinegar fermenter you have to measure the fluid dynamics exactely: to get a perfect vinegar, the fermentation should take place very slow, hence it is not allowed to use an air pump in the fermenter, the air has to flow by theirself.
