Counterpressure can filler

​

Description:

​

Our ancestors packed their beverages into leather bags, wooden barrels, pottery and glass.

Our generation uses extremely thin and super light material called aluminum - and yes,  it’s awesome!

Since cans are now also easily available for micro brewers the time has come to look into the future of craft beer packaging.

The daniCanFiller Model 3 is a semiautomatic can filler. How does it work?

 

1. Push the START-BUTTON: The daniCanFiller lowers the platform and starts purging 4 cans with carbon dioxide to lower the oxygen pick-up and counterpressure filling 4 cans with carbonated beverage. It can of course also fill non-carbonated beverages.

2. Meanwhile the filled cans are capped, sealed by hand and 4 new cans are placed on the left side.

3. The daniCanFiller measures the desired amount of liquid, it then stops automatically when the cans are filled and lifts the platform.

4. The cans are pushed to the right side by hand.

5. Push the START-BUTTON: ...

​

The daniCanFiller is very compact, affordable, easy to clean and easy to handle.

It totally follows the BT-philosophy: A very simple and straightforward design for a low price.

​

Designed and made by craft brewers for craft brewers: The daniCanFiller is handcrafted in our brewery garage in Bern/Switzerland.

​

What are the differences between the Model 2 and the Model 3?

​

The Model 2 is an atmospheric filler that can also fill very cold carbonated beverages.

The Model 3 is a real counterpressure filler that fills CO2 into the can creating a 

counterpressure which is then slowly released when the carbonated beverage enters

the cans. This prevents overfoaming. The advantage of a counterpressure filler over an 

atmospheric filler is the fact you can also fill at higher temperatures of +5 °C for

example which is not possible for atmospheric fillers which are usually driven < 0 °C.

​

If you want to fill overcarbonated beverages or you do not want to chill your beverages < 0 °C for filling or you simply do not want to care about any

overfoaming problems the Model 3 is the way to go.
