Unlike traditional beer brewing equipment, kombucha brewing equipment will need to support aerobic fermentation during the first stage and controlled pressure fermentation during the second stage. TIANTAI has developed complete 1200L Kombucha Brewing Equipment integrating tea preparation, fermentation, cooling, carbonation, CIP cleaning, and automatic control.
The Kombucha Brewing Equipment can be customized according to production capacity, factory layout, packaging requirements, and automation level, providing a reliable foundation for future business growth.

1200L Kombucha Brewing Equipment Components
Tea Brewing System
The tea brewing system is used to prepare sweet tea by heating water, dissolving sugar, and extracting tea ingredients.
The tank is equipped with an agitator to ensure uniform mixing and stable tea concentration, improving production efficiency and batch consistency.
First Stage Open-Top Fermentation Tank
The open-top fermentation tank provides sufficient oxygen for healthy SCOBY development during primary fermentation.
It can also be used as a SCOBY storage tank and starter culture tank, helping maintain stable fermentation performance from batch to batch.
Second Stage Pressure Fermentation Tank
After primary fermentation, kombucha is transferred into pressure fermentation tanks for flavoring, maturation, and carbonation.
The pressure tank is equipped with a cooling jacket for accurate temperature control and improved product consistency.
Bright Storage Tank (Optional)
Finished kombucha can be stored in a bright tank before bottling, canning, or keg filling.
The tank helps maintain product stability and improves packaging efficiency.
Filtration System (Optional)
According to different product requirements, DE filtration or membrane filtration systems can be added to improve clarity while maintaining the desired flavor profile.
Glycol Cooling System
The glycol cooling system includes:
- Glycol water tank
- Glycol chiller
- Glycol pump
- Pipelines
It provides stable temperature control throughout fermentation, maturation, and storage.
CIP Cleaning System
The mobile CIP unit allows efficient cleaning of brewing tanks, fermentation tanks, and process pipelines.
It improves hygiene standards while reducing manual cleaning work.
Control System
Manual, semi-automatic, and fully automatic PLC control systems are available.
The system can be customized according to customer requirements and production management needs.
