Description
Steam condenser 2-part, 2" – for Brewtools B50, B100 and B180
Steam condenser from Brewtools that fits the 2" ports on the Brewtools B50, B100 and B180. The condenser uses cold water to cool the steam from the boil, turning it into liquid that runs out into a bucket or straight into the floor drain. It is a good alternative to an extraction system.
How it works
Steam from the boil rises into the condenser, and a nozzle sprays cold water into the steam. The steam condenses and the water runs out through the drain hose. The condenser comes with a nozzle that delivers 1.1 litres of water per minute at 4 bar. Other nozzles that give more or less water are also available, depending on the water pressure where you brew (sold separately).
Technical data

You also need
- TC 2" clamp and TC 2" gasket
- an adapter for the water inlet, for example TC34mm to Gardena or TC34mm to hose
- a drain hose (16 x 25 mm)
- a TC34mm 90-degree elbow is recommended for the water inlet
Note: You need much less power to boil with this unit, and there is a high risk of boil-over if the power is too high. Take the necessary precautions. To maintain the vacuum, the drain hose must not have back pressure. We recommend draining into a bucket where the hose is not submerged in water, or letting the drain hose hang over a floor drain.
Frequently asked questions about the 2" steam condenser for Brewtools
Which Brewtools systems does it fit?
It fits the 2" ports on the Brewtools B50, B100 and B180. For the older B40pro, B80pro and B150pro, use the steam condenser that mounts on the extraction hood.
How much water does the steam condenser use?
The included nozzle delivers 1.1 litres of water per minute at 4 bar water pressure. If your water pressure is higher or lower, other nozzles are sold separately.
Why must the drain hose not be submerged?
The condenser needs the vacuum created when the steam condenses. If the hose is submerged or has back pressure, the vacuum is lost. Let the hose end above a bucket or a floor drain.
Do I need to adjust the power when using the condenser?
Yes. You need much less power to maintain the boil, and too much power gives a high risk of boil-over. Start low and increase carefully.
