Every home-brewer knows Brew Day is the best part of brewing your own beer. But then comes fermentation and bottling. Which means you’ve got, at best, 4 weeks worth of work ahead of you including bottling. Days spent lifting, sanitizing, siphoning, conditioning, worrying, and waiting. Meanwhile, the process presents risks like contamination, oxidation, and sub-optimal temps that could turn your craft beer into crap beer. That is, until Vessi™ Fermentor.
Go from 4 weeks of worry and work, to a mere 7 days* with minimal effort – all while exerting more control over the entire fermentation and finishing process.
One of my issues with beer bots such as PicoBrew and Brewie is that by automating the first cooking stages, they end up compromising some of the artistry and craftsmanship that goes into brewing beer yourself. And you’re on your own when it comes to fermentation.
So I like the Vessi Fermenter, at least in theory, because you do still have to cook the beer yourself. The fermenter’s role is to help you watch over your beer during the downtime after the brew. And there’s a certain degree of reassurance that comes from a crowdfunding campaign with the backing of a major manufacturer.
Speed
Vessi™ Fermentor stays pressurized the entire time, so that what’s inside stays carbonated. Which means no need to bottle condition or force carbonate your beer, cutting days out of your timeline. Plus, the heating and cooling system helps reach an optimal fermentation and finishing environment faster.
Ease
Once the wort’s in the tank, there’s no more transferring. In fact, no siphoning, lifting, or jackets, either. Everything you need is in one, convenient tank, with everything on hand to rule the fermentation and finishing process.
Vessi™ Fermentor is a single tank that’s sealed, pressurized, and temperature-controlled for the ideal environment to craft great-tasting beer time and time again. Manage key risks that make good beer go bad, and get more control over the fermentation process.
Confidence
Vessi™ Fermentor helps you reduce key risks that make good beer go bad, in a more controlled environment. Precise temperature and pressure control, and a construction that’s designed to minimize exposure to light and oxygen, keeping your batch safe. Which, when it’s all said and done means a better beer.

How it Works
2. Clear Sediment
Once the yeast is finished fermenting, you can clear the sediment from the bottom of the tank using the Sediment Removal System, which transfers sediment out of the tank without opening the unit or depressurizing. This is also a good time to add any aromas or flavors using the Liquid Injection System – designed to force your additions into the tank, while minimizing exposure to light and oxygen.
3. Dispense – Pour, Bottle, or KegYour beer is ready! For instant gratification, pour straight from the tap. To share with friends and family (or quickly ferment another batch), transfer to bottles or a keg using the bottling and kegging ports. Once they’re filled, they’re ready to drink (no bottle conditioning or keg carbonation required).
