Description
Grainfather GF30 Conical Fermenter Pro – conical fermenter with WiFi
The Grainfather Conical Fermenter Pro is a 30 litre conical fermenter with a built-in wireless controller, integrated heating element and cooling jacket. Connect the controller to the internet and the Grainfather app, and you can control and monitor fermentation from anywhere. It suits homebrewers who want precise temperature control and the ability to dump yeast and take samples during fermentation.
You can add fermentation trackers such as Tilt and Plaato in the app. Used with the Grainfather Glycol Chiller, you get full control of both heating and cooling.
Features
- Double walled: double-walled stainless steel insulated with a thick layer of polyurethane foam, keeping the wort at a steady temperature regardless of the surroundings.
- Gentle heating: a 30 W, 12 V heating element sits in the cavity between the outer body and the conical base. It heats the space between the walls, which in turn warms the liquid evenly and gently.
- Integrated cooling jacket: the stainless steel cooling jacket sits between the walls of the tank. Connected to the Grainfather Glycol Chiller (sold separately), coolant runs through the jacket and cools the beer. The jacket needs no cleaning or sanitizing.
- Easy cleaning: a smooth interior with no cooling coil or sample valves makes cleaning easy and reduces the risk of infection.
- Golden Angle Conical: a 60° cone so yeast and sediment slide to the bottom without sticking to the sides.
- Dual Valve Tap: one valve for yeast dumping, transfer and sampling. Samples and transfers are taken from an inlet above the sediment line, giving clear beer.
- Wireless controller: set the temperature precisely and add temperature profiles. You can save up to four profiles with five steps each.
If you use more than one fermenter with the Grainfather Glycol Chiller, you will need additional Cooling Connection kits. To control the temperature without a glycol chiller, you can use the Cooling Pump Kit.

Frequently asked questions about the Grainfather GF30 Conical Fermenter Pro
Can I pressure ferment in the GF30?
No. The maximum pressure is 2 psi, so this is not a pressure vessel. The ferrule on the lid is for pressure transfer attachments.
Do I need a glycol chiller?
The fermenter has built-in heating, but cooling requires the Grainfather Glycol Chiller or the Cooling Pump Kit. Without cooling it can only hold temperatures above room temperature.
How much beer can I ferment?
The fermenter holds 30 litres and has volume markings up to 25 litres.
Can I follow fermentation on my phone?
Yes. The controller connects to the internet and the Grainfather app, and you can add Tilt and Plaato to track fermentation.
