Total Fermentation Control

Precision temperature management: Automate multi-stage profiles to seamlessly transition from cold soak, to active fermentation, to post-ferment stabilization without manual intervention.

Automated Pump-overs & Aeration: Customize frequency and duration by fermentation stage to ensure consistent color and tannin extraction - automating the routine so you can focus on the results

Integrated Brix Monitoring: Log data manually at the tank or upgrade to continuous real-time sensing to visualize fermentation curves, detect trends early, and intervene before fermentations stall.

Real-Time Fermentation Insight

Live Fermentation Curves: See the full picture. View temperature, Brix, pump-over events, and setpoint changes together on a single, continuously updating timeline.

Early Trend Detection: Protect lot value. Identify slowing kinetics instantly - reducing the risk of stuck fermentations, extended tank time, and costly corrective actions.

Integrated Lab Data: Connect your workflow. Enter lab results directly in TankNET^® or automatically sync from systems like InnoVint and Vintrace for complete lot context.

Cellar Activity at a Glance

Real-time Tank Maps: Visualize your actual cellar layout on screen. See live temperature, lot identity, and fermentation stage clearly displayed exactly where they are in the winery.

Clear Status, Quick Adjustments: Instantly assess cooling activity, pump-overs, and alarms via intuitive color-coding and animations—then click to make set-point changes directly from the map view.

Fewer Mistakes, Faster Decisions: Eliminate whiteboards and outdated manual logs. Keep your entire harvest team aligned with a single, live operational view that updates the moment a change happens.

Streamlined Tank Management

Sheets-style Interface: Manage large tank counts easily. Use a familiar, spreadsheet-like view complete with sorting, filtering, and rapid data entry to speed up your daily rounds.

Purpose-built Work Views: Save custom filters and column layouts for specific workflows—streamlining repeated tasks like batch set-point changes or pump-over scheduling.

Flexible Data Export: Export tank lists to Excel or Google Sheets for reporting, sharing, and offline analysis.

Easy, Scalable Networking

Wi-Fi or Mesh: Use existing Wi-Fi for small cellars or deploy industrial mesh for dependable coverage across large facilities - eliminating the need for enterprise-level infrastructure.

Reliable by design: Mesh networking provides self-healing paths and redundancy, while Wi-Fi 6 delivers stable, low-latency communication suited for industrial control.

Minimal Cost, Easy Expansion: Add tanks as you grow - including portable tanks without added network expense.

Facility Intelligence

TankNET^® extends beyond tank control to manage energy use and cellar conditions — helping reduce operating costs while maintaining safe, stable production environments.

Energy-Aware Cooling

Flatten energy spikes during Crush. TankNET^® uses pulse cooling and demand-based control to manage chiller load, reducing peak demand and energy costs while keeping fermentation curves tight.

Integrated Cellar Safety

Manage temperature, CO₂ buildup, humidity, and night-air cooling from the same dashboard that runs your fermentations - protecting your wine while reducing energy use.

Built For Wineries

Industrial-grade Wireless Controllers

IP67 wash-down-rated hardware designed to withstand moisture and temperature swings.

Web-based Software

Run TankNET^® in the cloud or on-premises, with the same full-fidelity experience on any device.

Proven in the Cellar

"TankNET® gives me the control and insight necessary to truly deliver on the promise of each vintage."

Cory Empting, Winemaker

Harlan Estate

"With the automatic pumpover system, we went from 30 pumpovers per batch to over 100, at a steadier pace, not just squeezing them in. The result was richer color, more concentration, and better homogenization of aromas and flavors."

Katz & Sjolund

Aperture Cellars

"The dedicated, programmed pumpover system proved very, very useful. It let us run shorter pumpovers more frequently without extra labor. Overall I was really pleased with the harvest, now it's just a matter of fine tuning"

Winemaker

Riboli

"When developing the system, it didn't make sense to reinvent the wheel on the automation side, so we turned to TankNET® for the nuts and bolts, the end-to-end solution."

Christian Palmaz

Palmaz Vineyards

"With TankNET® controlling our tank jackets, we could precisely chill fruit to 50 °F for cold soak and then let it warm naturally to start fermentation, all while protecting against line breaks and costly glycol loss."

Bob Heasell

APCCO

"TankNET® lets me chill one tank and warm another at the same time, and I don't have to reset temperatures when the warming is done. It keeps everything within range automatically."

Amanda Cramer, Owner & Winemaker

Niner Wine Estates

"TankNET is indispensable to our operations. We've worked with them for over 20 years, and I truly can't imagine getting through harvest without it. Their support is equally impressive - competent and responsive, which is a real rarity these days"

Michael McNeill, Winemaker

Hanzell Vineyards

"Matt was a champion getting us up and running. He made the commissioning process straightforward and stress-free - we really appreciate the first-class support!"

Ryan O'Donnell, Winemaker

Marcassin Wine Co

"TankNET is critical to our wine care at Bedrock. The data visualization tools allow us to graph Brix versus real-time temperature, helping us catch slow-downs before they become an issue. The technology is easy to use, and Greg's team is always quick to provide solutions whenever they're needed."

Katie Rouse, Associate Winemaker

Bedrock Wine Co.

"As long-time users of TankNET controllers, we wanted the simplicity of a wireless solution without the need to make a significant investment in Wi-Fi infrastructure. We moved forward with an initial installation of 30 controllers over six months ago and we have not had a single issue. This is now our preferred controller solution."
