Mash Tun 400L
Product Code: T0400
Product Description
The Mash Tun 400L (T0400) is a high-performance, energy-efficient mash tun designed for breweries and distilleries looking for reliability, precision, and cost-effectiveness. With a 400L capacity, this stainless steel tun is perfect for medium-scale operations seeking consistency and flexibility in their brewing processes.
Constructed from durable 304-grade stainless steel, the T0400 features 50mm thick insulation, minimising heat loss during mashing. This advanced thermal efficiency ensures the tun loses no more than 1-2°C over a 90-minute mash period, even without additional heating, significantly reducing energy consumption.
The T0400 is equipped with a 300mm manway door for easy waste removal, a stainless steel false bottom with 3mm holes to prevent clogs and optimise water flow, and a copper sparge arm integrated into the insulated lid to maintain heat during sparging. A 1-inch outlet tap at the conical bottom provides efficient drainage, simplifying post-mash cleanup.

Energy-Efficient Insulation
Our range of Mash Tuns feature 50mm thick insulation made from highly efficient foam, ensuring minimal heat loss. During a 90-minute mash, temperatures drop by only 1-2°C, eliminating the need for additional heating and reducing energy costs.
300mm Manway Door for Easy Cleaning
The large manway door allows for quick and easy removal of waste products, simplifying cleaning after each use. Positioned next to the door is an analogue temperature gauge, enabling precise temperature monitoring throughout the mashing process.
Stainless Steel False Bottom
A stainless steel false bottom with 3mm holes is installed to prevent grains from clogging the outlet. This design optimises efficiency and water flow, ensuring a smooth brewing process every time.
Integrated Copper Sparge Arm
The copper sparge arm is built into the insulated lid, allowing the sparging cycle to be completed without removing the lid. This design prevents heat loss and maintains a stable temperature during the entire process.
