manufacturer, sure, we also got some stock for hot size and items. welcome to contact HENGKO
for more details and get your industrial filtration solution. Hope we can really help you.
Types of Carb Stone ( porous stainless steel stone ) ?
Because there are some variations in carbonation stones for different applications.
Here’s a breakdown of the common types, focusing on what makes them different:
1. By Connection Type:
*Tri-Clamp Carb Stones:
These are designed for larger-scale brewing, often used with jacketed tanks (tanks with a double wall for temperature control). They use a Tri-clamp fitting, which is sanitary and easy to use.
*Inline Carb Stones:
Installed directly into the CO2 gas line. They're great for efficient carbonation of large volumes of liquid, but require some plumbing modifications to integrate.
*Corny Keg Carb Stones:
Specifically made for use in Corny kegs, popular in homebrewing. They are smaller and typically attach to the dip tube or gas post inside the keg.
2.By Pore Size:
*Various Micron Ratings:
The pore size of the carb stone affects how quickly CO2 diffuses into the liquid and the size of the bubbles. Smaller pores create finer bubbles, while larger pores allow faster carbonation but might result in coarser bubbles.
*Larger Pores (2-3 Microns):
Faster carbonation, but potentially coarser bubbles and a higher risk of clogging.
*Smaller Pores (0.5-1 Micron):
Slower carbonation, but finer bubbles and less prone to clogging.
3.Other Considerations:
*Stone Size:
The size should match the volume of your vessel (keg, tank, etc.). Larger stones are needed for bigger tanks.
*Material:
Most are made of stainless steel, but it’s essential to choose high-quality, food-grade stainless steel (like 316L) for durability and corrosion resistance.
Important Notes:
*No matter the type, the core function is the same: to diffuse CO2 gas into a liquid through a porous stainless steel stone.
*Choosing the right type depends on your specific needs: your brewing setup, the size of your batches, and the desired carbonation level.
*If you're looking to buy a carb stone, it’s a good idea to check with a homebrew supply store or brewing equipment supplier. They can help you with sizing and compatibility.
So if you are also in the brewing industrial, and have project need to redesign or replace the carb stone,
please feel free to contact HENGKO, we will supply best product and solution for your carbonation system.
