White Labs Ferm Flask by SABCO
How it Works
The White Labs Ferm Flask by SABCO provides a simple way to avoid contamination in the brewery and will prevent the spread of contaminants and beer spoilage organisms.
Specifications
- Maintaining a pure and vital yeast culture is the key to a consistent and flawless fermentation.
- Contamination in the brewery, caused by bacteria, wild yeasts and other microbiological organisms is largely a result of poor yeast handling, storage, and transfers.
- Because this vessel is entirely enclosed and completely sanitary, it provides a simple way to avoid contamination in the brewery and will prevent the spread of contaminants and beer spoilage organisms.
- With White Labs Ferm Flask, you'll be able to add Nutrients while the yeast is in storage.
- In the same way, you'll also be able to charge your yeast prior to pitching.
- The special mixing arm will help you to avoid hot spot build up and will also allow you to homogenize the slurry prior to sampling or pitching.
- The White Labs Ferm Flask by Sabco is the best way to ensure a consistently healthy pitch of yeast every time!

Development
This vessel is modified after the Carlsberg Flask that was invented with the 1st Pure Yeast Culture in 1883 by Emil Christian Hansen. Just like the Carlsberg flask of the past, this yeast brink has been developed specifically for aseptic yeast handling in the brewery, assuring a pure and physiologically fit pitching yeast.
Produced in cooperation with Sabco/Kegs.Com Ltd., we employ smooth and sanitary weld technique, throughout this vessel.
In keeping with the Danish roots of the famous Carlsberg flask, Troels Prahl (Ferm Copenhagen) has modified the design of this flask to meet and surpass industry standards for yeast handling.
