Achieve highly accurate, foam-free product testing directly from your pressurized tanks with the Aomite Knob-Style Sanitary Sampling Valve and Defoaming Pigtail.
Engineered for breweries, cideries, and carbonated beverage facilities, this SS304/316L stainless steel assembly solves the common problem of excessive foaming during sample collection. The knurled top knob provides operators with smooth, precise micro-control over the fluid flow. As the highly carbonated beer travels through the attached coiled "pigtail" tube, the fluid velocity naturally decreases, allowing CO2 to gently break out of solution. The result is a perfect, liquid-only sample for gravity reading or tasting. Featuring a 1.5" Tri-Clamp connection and a protective dust cap with a chain, it ensures absolute hygiene and ease of use.

Knob-Style (This Product)
Features a round, knurled top knob that the operator turns or pushes. This design allows for excellent micro-adjustment of the flow rate. It is very compact, making it ideal for tight spaces on a fermenter, and often includes a chained dust cap for the outlet.
Rotary Lever Style
Features a longer, toggle-like lever. It is typically faster to open and close (often just a quarter or half turn), making it great for quickly pulling larger volume samples, but it offers slightly less micro-control over the initial flow rate than a threaded knob.
Pressure Reduction: It does not mechanically "break" foam. Instead, the long, narrow coiled tube creates physical friction. As the pressurized beer travels through this extended path, its pressure drops gradually rather than instantly.
Gentle CO2 Release: This gradual pressure drop prevents dissolved CO2 from violently escaping the liquid (which is what causes a cup to fill with foam). By the time the beer exits the pigtail, it pours gently as a measurable liquid sample.
