A 27 litre capacity stainless steel pasteuriser with fully adjustable timer and temperature controls. Includes a plastic grid to sit bottles on and handy dispensing tap. Ideal for pasteurising liquids in glass bottles, pouches or bags for bag in boxes. Essential if you’re looking to store your juice or cider. Juice can be kept for around 2 days before it begins to ferment, but can be kept for up to 2 years when pasteurised.
Easy to use. To pasteurising: Use dial to set the temperature you require (with your product inside), the unit to beep once it reaches this temperature, set the timer and temperature will be maintained for this length of time.
- Holds up to 13 x 750ml bottles, 2 x 5 litre bags, 1 x 10 litre bag or 14 x 1 litre preserving jars.
- Fully adjustable timer and temperature dials.
- Powerful 1800W heater ensures the unit will reach operating temperature quickly and maintain it with ease.
- We recommend pasteurising at 72 degrees for 20 minutes for apple juice or 64 degrees for 20 minutes for cider.
- Can also function as a brewing kettle for making beer, for mulling wine and for storing and dispensing hot liquids at functions.
This product is compatible with our juice extractor top. This extends its function, allowing you to extract fruit juice from currants, berries, stoned fruits and hard fruits.
Thermometer (not included) available here.
We also stock a digital version of this 27 litre pasteuriser. More details here.
Pasteurisation can often be the 'pinch point' in the production phase of your juice or ciders. If you are looking for a quicker pasteurisation process that can handle larger volumes it maybe worth considering our range of Speidel Juice Containers and Immersion Kits.

Pasteurising - bottle or preserving jars:
Fill the bottles or preserving jars to within 2.5cm / 1" of the top with clean, prepared juice or food (peas and beans keep longer if blanched first). Ensure that the bottle caps or rings of the jars are clean and dry. Fit the rubber seal and clip fasten the lids. Place the bottles or jars on the rack that sits on the base of the tank protecting them from direct heat. Jars can be stacked one on top of another. Fill the tank with water to within 2.5cm / 1" of the top bottle/jars. Place the lid on the appliance.
- Set the temperature gauge and put central alarm switch to the 'on' position
- Put the timer to 'On Continue' setting
- The cooker / pasteuriser will then heat to the set temperature (red light will be on when heating)
- When the pasteuriser reaches your specified temperature a beeping sound will be heard
- When beeping set the timer to the required length of time for full and accurate sterilisation. Turn alarm switch to 'off'
- When timer reaches zero a buzzer will sound and pasteurisation is complete
Pasteurising - bag-in-boxes using a Filling Support Stand:
Place the bag collar into the support stand and fill the bag allowing some room for expansion of the juice to be heated. Exclude - air before the tap is pushed part-way into the collar of the bag. Place 2 x 5 litre bags or 1 x 10 litre bag onto the pasteuriser rack and set the thermostat. When the water temperature reached the set level there may be more air in the bags - remove the bags, place the bag collar in the Filling Support Stand, take out the tap, expel the air and then drive the tap fully home. Return the bag to the pasteuriser, set the temperature, place the lid on the appliance and leave for the full pasteurisation time. Allow the bags to cool before packing into the cardboard box. Cooking settings and timings for individual drinks or foods are supplied with the machine.
(Note: The 20 litre bag is not suitable for use in this pasteuriser)
