Great unit, you mentioned pressurized fermentation, this has been a real game changer for me, for years I have been wanting to brew lagers and I bought your fermzilla and have been fermenting at 19C under pressure with lager yeast, finally there is a method other than the 6 weeks method from the past, with summer coming up I might have to invest in one of these, the amount of money we are saving here on beer by brewing ourselves is mind blowing, the extra money saved can be used to buy things like this. cheers 🍺
Problem with home brewing, the tools and accessories cost alot more than what you save by brewing yourself, unless your an alcoholic. x) I mean this fermentation fridge alone is like 2 years worth of store bought beer.
This is absolutely glorious. Hopefully there will be a smaller unit available soon to fit a single fermenter or a few cornys. Fingers crossed we'll see this in Finland!
Yes we will have a smaller unit available soon. The smaller unit will be a similar size to our current Series X kegerator. Is this the size that you are looking for?
Thanks Noel. We want everyone to get into home brewing and wherever possible I think we should offer customers alternative solutions to suit their budget.
Really clever and well thought out fermentation chamber. However, I can't see myself putting two fermenters in simultaneously to follow the same temperature profile - I just don't/can't brew that much beer at once. Therefore, are you considering making a mini RAPT Fermentation Chamber that will take a single 30l fermenter (and cost less)?
A dual zone fermenting chamber and kegerator combo would be cool too. then you could have one fermzilla fermenting in the top and be serving off one in.the bottom. Or fit 3 cornies and a gas tank. id never be able to afford it but I can watch youtube videos about it.
@KegLand If you're interested in wider 'fermentation' applications of RAPT, happy to chat. RAPT FC range of -2°C to 50°C is useful. If it could be pushed to 60°C with a little help, it would be ideal temperature for slow burn Maillard reactions ( Noma restaurant make black fruits/nuts/vegetables, including Black Garlic and Black Apples). They also have some life changing lactic ferments, like their lacto-fermented plumbs---best at 28°C for 5 days. Koji is also very versatile. Koji Alchemy authors @larderdb make a 2 year prosciutto in 2 months by inoculating the ham with spores directly. Works great dry aging steak, it just breaks everything down and adds so much umami.
@@fermento Sounds great. Can you please contact us in that case as we would be keen to work with you on this one. I really do like Black Garlic but have never made this myself. I am sure if you were able to help us make a video on how to make black garlic, Koji, steak, fermented plubs it would be really useful for our wider customer base and we can give you some assistance producing the video too.
Just seems like an excessively well thought out product! I often think it's a good thing I don't live in aus, or I would be bankrupt from buying all your gear (and the snakes...) but then when I see things like this it makes me wish I did, as it will be much harder and more expensive for me to get Internationally
Thanks. It's definitely the best way to control fermentation. I have been using one for 1 year now and really think it's far superior to any of the other glycol chilling options.
@@KegLand it sure is, although im going to wait for the temp controller on its own to be in stock , then when my fermenting fridge breaks down il go for the full thing :D
Which fermenters will be able to have your 2” TC Hop Bong installed on top and still fit inside the fridge? I guess if you plan to have the 55L tri-conical or the 60L all rounder you might have to lift it out to dryhop with the hop bong kit.
The smaller 30L All Rounder will fit. for the larger 55l Tri-conical you will have to remove this from the fridge and then use the hop bong then put the fermenter back into the fridge again.
Can't wait to use these awesome piece of kit !! At around the 22 minute mark, you say the gas can be fitted at the top. Could you run through how to fit this? An elbow will not fit on the bottom of the reducer, at least not in line with the regulator, & the hose is too rigid to bend into place. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Its funny you mention that. We were just about to send one to him but he has already purchased one. He was lucky enough to get one before they sold out. I assume he is probably going to do a review on the unit at some stage soon.
Awesome product. I own one and love it! Question: Is there any way to have the display backlight turn off after a set amount of time? Is this something that you could otherwise implement in a future firmware update? Best regards from Austria!
So many cool KegLand RAPT products but the big question... When do you think they will be available here in the U.S. ? I know the supply chains are slowly coming back but KegLand is releasing so many new products that sadly aren't here in the U.S. yet. Impressed and keep up the great job.
Yes absolutely. Almost all the products will be available in USA but just when we first release a new product we release in Australia first and sometimes the electrical approvals and other approvals to get into USA take a bit of extra time to complete. Typically after we release a product in Australia it's available in America 6 months later. To purchase our products or to work out the arrival date you can contact our distributors in USA: www.morebeer.com www.williamsbrewing.com
@@KegLand The wait will be pain full but it might work out perfectly as I'm having a new house built and will end up with a 500 Sq Ft Home Brewing/Studio/Mini Pub area when completed and they would all be great additions for the build out.
@@BitterRealityBrewing That sounds great. I look forward to seeing this new brewing area in some of your new videos. Keep up the great work by the way. I havebeen watching your channel.
@@KegLand Awesome to hear and hopefully I don't disappoint as I have lots of really big plans in the future space (with the support of a few much larger UA-cam Channels helping me out a bit with one being family). It was my wife's bribe to me, to buy her a new house that is new but mimics the historic homes in the oldest part of Jacksonville, FL (near St Augustine, FL). (She loves old historic type homes but doesn't like the problems associated with old homes, so I guess you build a new home that mimics the old homes without the problems and add in a bit of modern technology.) She gets a new house and I get a 500 sq. ft. area to do whatever I want, which works for me as I already have people signing up to come by and enjoy free beer.
Got mine today, and am excited to try it out. Maybe I'm too stupid, but I can't find an on/off button, and unplugging it when not in use is very unhandy. How can this be done in a convenient way? Thanks!
You can turn of the fan, heating and cooling on the actual controller itself (or via the RAPT portal with your phone). If it's plugged into the wall though the screen will always be on.
Merry Christmas all! I just got a rapt fermentation chamber and wanna drop a gas line in like Kee does in this video. But there aren’t any holes that allow the lines access into the chamber itself. That area is covered. Should I be cutting a hole into that covering? Thanks much in advance!
We do sell the glass door option separately. The glass door is less electrically efficient though so expect that you will have higher power bill with glass door.
Does it need to be in ambient temperature? I have a garage where it can get pretty cold during winter time(down to - 10C). Could turn out to be a buy for me :)
Is it possible to connect an external temperature probe, so you can regulate on the basis of the actual temperature of the liquid inside the fermenter?
The easiest way is just to extend the temperature probe with this probe here then drop this into ther thermowell of your fermenter. www.kegland.com.au/2m-extension-probe-for-rapt-fridge-with-4mm-probe.html We also are working on some bluetooth probes that are wireless and also work with this fridge too. These will be released early next year.
Yes absolutely. We already have some customers using the chamber for this. The other person who did this used these trays: www.kegland.com.au/products/rapt-fermentation-chamber-polycarbonate-heat-resistant-shelf-tray-60mm-deep
We will first be integrating with our own pill hydrometer: www.kegland.com.au/rapt-pill-hydrometer-thermometer-wifi-bluetooth.html Once this is completed we will then start looking at further integration with other devices.
Inverter motors are not really done in these small appliances. Inverter drives are required in much larger compressors that have high torque requrement. They are often sold for air conditioning that is 1kw power and above as the startup current requirement is quite high. They are sold as being more energy efficient as a second advantage but the reality is with these larger AC units they have no choice due to the torque requirement. This fridge has a small and quite energy efficient 0.2kw compressor so no inverter is necessary.
I would buy this kind of thing, that fit in 8 18l kegs, kind of Cornelius. To store lagers for few months. That would be useful. I'm fermenting in ferminators. It's ok. Loud, but not louder than kegland xseries :))
Yes this is something that will likely be possible soon. We have an I2C port on the temp controller board that we have not mentioned to anyone yet. This port on the board is easy to get to and you can run the wire to pickup and control humitidy. It will not be until late 2022 when this is available but the good news is that this upgrade kit will most likely be backwards compatible due to the I2C port already on the board. Also as this system is internet connected we can upgrade the firmware over the air (OTA). As new firmware is finished to enable humidity control we will push these upgrades out so customers can benefit from these OTA upgrades instantly.
about to purchase this, however it being an IOT device, what cyber security have you built in to prevent hackers from infiltrating my home network? Or am I expected to isolate this device within my router settings
We design all firmware and web software inhouse. Our devices only communicate with our own RAPT portal by a secure and encrypted connection. If you are really concerned you can turn off the wifi but you will not be able to use our web portal.
Will this eventually talk to the Rapt Pill and adjust the temperature automagically based on pre-programmed key stages in fermentation? i.e. if doing a lager it will increase the temp for a diacetyl rest towards the end of fermentation
Yes this is something that we are working on now. It's a completely new area of software development but once these new features are available we will release firmware upgrades for these fermentation chambers.
Hey John. The RAPT fermentation chambers have wifi and bluetooth hardware onboard. As a result the fridge can recieve bluetooth beacon and then relay this up through the RAPT fermentation chamber to the internet so the data can be displayed on the RAPT portal. This means the RAPT fermentation chamber will essencially be like a wifi/bluetooth range extender repeater. We are currently getting this to work with the RAPT Hydrometers that you see here: www.kegland.com.au/rapt-pill-hydrometer-thermometer-wifi-bluetooth.html Once we have finishe all the integration with our own RAPT Pill Hydrometer we will then look at integration with things like the tilt down the track. With that said our RAPT Pill Hydrometer has wifi and bluetooth, more accurate, is made from BPA and Bisphenol free materials (Tilt is not as it's made from polycarbonate) and our RAPT Pill Hydrometer is a fraction of the cost. So I really don't know why someone would want to purchase the tilt over our alternative but as you can imagine I am a bit biased.
@@KegLand Hey Thanks. I already have 2 tilts (Had them for 4 years) so thats fantastic. I purchased the RAPT fridge yesterday. Pretty sure I was the 1st one after Oli put them up at 12noon. So look forward to receiving it and setting it up. Thanks

The shipping price for a container has gone from 2.5k to 10k per 40ft container. So when the price comes down we will also revise our price too.
@@KegLand crazy, prices better drop as thats unsustainable. Dumb covid craziness
@@Wind_Ninja_Jubei Yes I agree. These large bulky items are the ones that are most effected by the shipping cost unfortunately.
@@KegLand i am actually a good customer of yours. Just the current price is outside my price range, just recently upgraded my 3 yr old robo brew to a 65litre brewzilla. I will stick to my chest freezer until a sale or shipping goes to normal for now. Thanks for the info though
