Yogurt Fermentation Tank
A yogurt fermentation tank from 500 L to 30,000 L in SUS304 or SUS316L, built as a vertical three layer tank with insulation and dimple jacket.
Product Overview
A yogurt fermentation tank from 500 L to 30,000 L in SUS304 or SUS316L, built as a vertical three layer tank with insulation and dimple jacket. It blends and ferments milk into yogurt, with frame or propeller agitators available and a scraper fitted where the recipe requires it. Standard components include product inlet and outlet, manway, air ventilation cap, conical cover, CIP cleaning ball, digital display thermometer, high and low liquid level sensors, sample valve, draw bar valve, anti-vortex plate, sight glass, lifting ears and four adjustable supporting legs.
Key benefits
Why Buyers Choose This Specification
Dimple Jacket Holds Culture Temperature
Yogurt culture works in a narrow temperature band for several hours. A three layer tank with insulation and dimple jacket is what keeps the whole batch in that band, not just the middle of it.
Anti-Vortex Plate Fitted
A vortex pulls air into fermenting yogurt and breaks the gel structure. The anti-vortex plate is a small fitting that protects the texture of the whole batch.
Sample Valve for In-Process Checks
Fermentation is judged by pH and taste over time. A sample valve lets the batch be checked without opening the tank.
Scraper Available on the Agitator
Set yogurt clings to the wall and insulates the batch from the jacket. A scraper keeps the heat transfer surface clear.
Application scenarios
Where It Is Used
- Fermenting set and stirred yogurt
- Producing drinking yogurt base
- Culturing dairy products in batch
- Blending and fermenting in one vessel
- Small yogurt lines at 500 L
- Production yogurt plants at up to 30,000 L
Who it is for
The Buyers This Product Suits
Yogurt Producers
This is the vessel in which the product is actually made, and its temperature uniformity is what makes each batch match the last.
Dairies Adding Cultured Products
A fermentation tank with the right agitation and temperature control is the core addition needed to move from milk into yogurt.
Plants Running Several Recipes
Frame and propeller agitators with optional scraper let one tank handle set and stirred products.
Problems it solves
What It Fixes
Temperature Gradients Across a Batch
Insulation plus a dimple jacket over the full wall keeps the batch even rather than warm at the wall and cool at the centre.
Gel Structure Broken by Aeration
An anti-vortex plate stops the agitator drawing air into the fermenting batch.
Not Knowing When Fermentation Is Complete
A sample valve and sight glass let the batch be checked without breaking the seal.

Sourcing And Inspection
This product is supplied through TrueGlow Imaging, working with manufacturing partners whose facilities are visited and verified rather than taken on trust. In-process quality control and delivery supervision are available so goods are inspected before the container is sealed. Certifications quoted on this page are those stated on the product specification and belong to that product range rather than to our trading entity, so ask for the certificate covering your specific item.
Handling guide
Getting It Right First Time
Step 1
Set jacket temperature to your culture's requirement and hold it across the whole fermentation.
Step 2
Use gentle agitation during culturing and reserve higher speed for blending.
Step 3
Sample regularly through the sample valve and track pH rather than time alone.
Step 4
Specify a scraper where the product clings to the wall.
Step 5
Clean in place immediately after emptying, before the residue sets.

Guides That Cover This Product
Pasteurisation Versus UHT for Liquid Dairy
Three thermal profiles, three different machines and three different distribution models. Which one your plant needs is decided by shelf life and cold chain, not by capacity.
Specifying a CIP System That Actually Cleans
A cleaning cycle that runs without flow cleans nothing and reports success. Conductivity monitoring, flow switches and return pump selection are what make CIP verifiable.
