Components of the saccharification system

Mash tank

The mashing tank is a cylindrical vessel with a tapered sandwich and a curved top lid. The high-efficiency jacket heat exchange technology is adopted outside the tank, and the scientific steam application scientific steam turbulence principle is applied to realize the greatest heat conduction and energy-saving effect. Accuracy of heating rate and holding time. Near the bottom of the tank, there is a paddle agitator to rotate, and the agitator is driven to rotate by the motor through the vertical turbine reducer. After crushing, the rice flour and part of the malt powder are mixed with water and boiled, and used to heat the mash to liquefy and gelatinize the starch. It can maximize the best biological activity and conversion and catalytic effect of various enzymes in the process of gelatinization and saccharification, thereby ensuring the best quality and highest yield of beer at the source.

Lauter Tank

The internal structure of the mashing tank is divided into two layers, the upper layer realizes the functions of filtration and drying, and the lauter tank method is used to filter the wort. The filter sieve plate is a milled sieve plate, made of stainless steel 304, with a spacing of 0.7-0.9mm. The sieve plate is processed and will not be deformed after long-term use. The lower layer performs mashing, boiling, and cooling functions. The tank adopts an advanced and scientific tiller structure system and hydraulic automatic lifting technology to ensure uniform trough turning and stable trough discharge, and also improve the filtration speed and production efficiency, and ensure the good transparency and juice yield of wort.

Kettle（Boiling Tank）

While boiling, add hops and other spices. These contribute to the bitterness and aroma of the final beer. More , hops contain alpha acids, which, during boiling, isomerize to iso-alpha acids, the main bitter substances in beer. The boiling tank is used for the boiling and concentration of wort in beer production. It is a device that brings hop aroma to the wort by adding hops, and it is also one of the main equipment in the saccharification process. The structure is composed of the pot body, the outer cladding of the thermal insulation layer, the liquid inlet, and the liquid outlet. Extracorporeal circulation mixing technology is adopted to speed up the initial rate of wort boiling, so that the temperature of the wort is always kept uniform during the heating process, preventing the denaturation of wort solubles in the region caused by local overheating, thus ensuring the wort. Boil quality.

Whirlpool Tank

The lower part is the spin sink, which is used to separate the hot coagulation, reduce the speed of the spin sink, and promote the settling and agglomeration of the coagulation. , and play a temporary storage role when the wort is filtered. During the spin sinking, the wort enters along with the tangential nozzle at a certain speed and rotates for a certain time by inertial force. Under the action of centrifugal force, hops and thermal coagulation gather in the center of the pot body, so about achieve the best separation from the feed liquid.

Hops Adding System

The hop addition system can be composed of two or more tanks, equipped with accessories such as pumping, pipelines, valves, etc., and can also control the addition amount: the tanks, valves, pipes, etc. in the hop addition system can be connected to the CIP system. Realize the functions of automatic, semi-automatic, cleaning, and disinfection.
