More Than Equipment - A Reflection of Your Winery
Your fermentation tanks aren't just vessels. They're the heart of your production process, the centerpiece of your cellar, and a reflection of your winery's identity and values. So why settle for generic equipment designed for someone else's operation?
Silver State Stainless builds fermentation tanks that are as unique as your winery.
Built on Customization
Every fermentation tank Silver State creates is fully customizable to suit your space, production needs, and vision. Bring your designs and ideas to the table, and their team works with you to create a truly distinctive cellar while maintaining the tried-and-true standards that protect your wine.
From punch-down integration and Pulsair™-equipped tank mixing and cap management, to automated pump-over systems and variable capacity designs, Silver State offers flexibility that adapts to your exact fermentation process—whether that's simple or complex.
Showroom Quality Built to Last
Using heavy gauge domestic stainless steel and dedicating extra time to aesthetic finishes, Silver State creates showroom-quality fermentation tanks designed to last the lifespan of your winery and beyond. These aren't temporary solutions. They're investments in your cellar's future.
But quality goes deeper than appearance. Silver State integrates advanced monitoring systems directly into your tanks—level, temperature, and brix sensors that give you real-time data to measure efficiencies and dial in your punch-down and pump-over processes with precision.
Your Cellar, Your Brand
Customizable jacket coverages, space-saving tank profile designs, and individual laser-engraved branding labels transform your cellar into a space that's as unique as your brand. Visitors don't just see functional equipment—they see a reflection of your winery's identity and commitment to craft.
Smart Design, Smart Costs
Proper tank sizing isn't just about fitting your space—it's about strategic growth planning. By working with Silver State to design the right mix of vessel sizes, you can:
Diversify your cellar utility — accommodate multiple batches simultaneously
Optimize thermal jacket layout — save costs on low-run applications
Plan for growth — scale your equipment as your winery expands without overbuying
The cost-per-gallon drops significantly as tanks get larger. Let Silver State help you plan for the diversity and growth of your winery, so you invest in equipment you actually need.
Solutions for Existing Cellars
If you already have fermentation tanks that missed the mark on initial design, Silver State offers retrofit solutions: bolt-on or removable air seal lids, easy-to-install pump-over conversion kits, and custom modifications that bring your existing equipment up to performance standards.
From Concept to Cellar
Whether you're building a new cellar from scratch or upgrading existing equipment, Silver State's approach is collaborative. They listen to your vision, understand your production goals, and engineer fermentation tanks that give you both the performance and aesthetics you deserve.
Heavy gauge stainless steel. Precision monitoring integration. Custom design. Laser-engraved branding. Showroom quality finishes. These aren't standard features in fermentation tanks—they're Silver State's commitment to excellence.

Build fermentation tanks that last—and make your cellar unmistakably yours.
Established in 2018, Red Boot Beverage’s Midwest facility has 350,000 square feet dedicated to the bottling and canning of carbonated and non-carbonated beverages. They are Iowa’s largest beverage co-packing company, known for excellent customer service, quality, and meeting delivery timelines. As a locally-owned company that cares about the work they do and the clients they serve, Red Boot proved to be the type of partner that makes our job so fun and rewarding.
When discussing the tank design needs for their 2026 facility and cellar expansion, Jim Kuhr knew exactly what he wanted and what Red Boot Beverage needed: Critical space and functionality guidelines, maximum efficiency and process times, and strict adherence to local/regional compliance. Using these three pillars of focus as our roadmap, we were able to marry industry standard feature packages with custom critical design insight that made for a highly functional, and aesthetically beautiful, facility upgrade.
400 barrel agitated brite tanks
The facility start up date was always a non-negotiable deadline for Jim’s team, and by maintaining ongoing communication with concise decision making, most unavoidable hiccups worked themselves out organically through discussions. Red Boot’s flexibility, partnered with their extreme knowledge of their operation, allowed Silver State Stainless to work to our design and fabrication strengths, creating a smooth timeline and complication free execution.
10,000 Gallon UL-142 storage tanks with secondary containment
When it came to storage of high proof ethanol, the inaugural ingredient for the bulk of mixed RTD beverages, safety and compliance cannot be overstated. Adherence to the highest compliance standard for above ground storage vessels (explosive and flammable products) was the only option for this facility from our first conversation. Tank-integrated secondary containment designs (UL-142) allow for the safe and practical storage of high proof spirits and allow all staff and community members to sleep well, knowing that in the event of an unforeseen catastrophe, the area remains safe and protected against critical worst case scenarios. Silver State Stainless is a premium manufacturer of UL-142 compliant storage vessels, a national standard aimed at uniform safety and full scope compliance in the safe storage of flammable products.
We thank Jim and his whole team at Red Boot for the opportunity to learn from their project management skills, and for the opportunity to share our craft at their facility.
