Wine Fermenting Equipment

Keep your yeast happy and your ferment warm during those cold winter months with this flexible heater. Using tape to adhere this flexible heating wrap can be attached directly to your fermenter or can be used to heat the space in a box (or refrigerator) that the fermenter is in. Depending on your configuration and insulation you can increase the temperature of your ferment from 5-20 degrees Fahrenheit. If using carboy or bucket you can attach directly using tape (as seen in photo above.) We recommend electrical tape as it sticks and unsticks the easiest.

A Mix-Stir Agitator Rod makes aerating in a carboy a breeze. Simply attach the agitator rod to your drill and you are ready to go. The blades fold up for easy insertion into any sized carboy (except 1/2 and 1 gallon sizes). De-gas your wine in a few minutes, or aerate your wort for a healthy fermentation. Please Note: The mix-stir is very effective at de-gassing your wine and it should not be used for more than a few 10-15 second bursts. If you over-use the mix-stir you risk adding oxygen to your wine.

This fermenting bucket is the best one we have found yet. The lid is easy to put on and take off the plastic is opaque so that you can see the top of your liquid.

And the bucket has a graduated scale on the side of the bucket in both liters and gallons!
