Description

Item is a used Probrew Procarb Plus 30 inline carbonator. The machine was built new in 2017 and remains in good shape having just been removed from service. The ProCarb 30 (often referenced alongside the ProCarb Plus technology line) is an advanced, industrial inline beverage carbonation and nitrogenation system manufactured by TechniBlend / ProBrew.

It is primarily used by craft breweries, seltzer producers, and soft drink manufacturers to accurately dissolve CO2 or nitrogen gases into liquid at high speeds.

Key System Details

  • The "30" Designation: This stands for its capacity. The ProCarb 30 is engineered to precisely carbonate up to 30 gallons per minute of finished beverage.
  • How It Works: Rather than using traditional, slow carbonation stones inside a storage tank (which can take days), it utilizes a specialized sparging element and a computerized PLC system to inject gas directly into the product stream on its way to being packaged.
  • The "Plus" Integration: When upgraded or paired as a ProCarb Plus system, the unit is integrated directly with a centrifugal separator (built in partnership with Alfa Laval). It utilizes up to 17 Gs of centrifugal force to force instant, complete gas absorption into the liquid.


Major Benefits to Producers

  • Speed: It can reduce traditional beverage carbonation timelines by over 500% (turning a 3-day process into a 3-hour process).
  • Low Dissolved Oxygen (DO): It severely limits the amount of unwanted oxygen entering the beverage, which preserves the drink's shelf-life and flavor profile.
  • Stability: The intense pressure ensures the bubbles stay tightly dissolved, resulting in less foaming during the canning/bottling phase and a more stable, foamy "head" when the drink is poured.


The machine recently arrived at our facility and is skidded and ready to ship.
