Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for an accelerated fermentation in a fermentation tank 2 with at least a tank cone 2a and a connection flange 4, in particular for beer production. The method comprises the steps: a) sucking in of fermentation fluid M1 from the tank 2 via a first circulation pipe 40 by means of a circulation pump 30; b) inducing of the drive fluid M1 that is now pumped by the circulation pump 30 via a second circulation pipe 50 in a mixing member 10 that is arranged within the tank cone 2a at a height L of 350 mm-1800 mm between the bottom edge of the connection flange 4 and the bottom edge of the mixing member 10; and c) generating of a jet directed upwards and exiting through an outlet opening 18 of the mixing member 10, so that the yeast cells stay for a longer time in suspension in the tank 2 by means of an in such a way improved convective current. The invention relates moreover to a corresponding device.
