The OPTIMA STEAMER generates steam temperatures around 178°C and is capable of delivering temperature of 135~137°C at the nozzle tip in ambient temperature and pressure.
When steam is fed to a barrel or tank and lightly pressurized, it can reach much higher temperature in a relatively short time.
You can use the OPTIMA STEAMER as a stand alone cleaning station to sanitize 2 barrels simultaneously.
Paired with our barrel tool, superheated dry steam penetrates wood’s surface and pores.
Because of its gaseous properties, steam can reach into wood, using moisture and temperature to kill hidden bacteria naturally.
Superheated steam’s saturated vapor is able to penetrate better than heat alone, making it ideal for reaching difficult areas that are often impossible to reach using boiling water or chemicals like ozone.
Amongst competitors, the OPTIMA STEAMER delivers superheated steam at a higher, more consistent pressure more quickly, which equates to higher temperatures and saving time.

Optima Steamer Barrel Cleaning Before & After -
Steam Cleaner for Conveyor System (Short Introduction)
Using steam is the perfect way to sanitize in your craft brewery.
Foeders have similar cleaning challenges as barrels being wood.
In addition, they are very large. Steam can restore and fill in the gaps between foedor staves and sanitize effectively and relatively quickly.
The fastest and most eco-friendly way to sanitize every nook of the surface is using wet heat, a.k.a. saturated steam.
Unlike hot water or wet steam (water vapor), saturated superheated steam (a.k.a. superheated dry steam), that carries heat, can travel far and around obstacles and reach areas that hot water in liquid form cannot.
Using less water and energy is not only friendly to your wallet but also to the environment.
