Beer brewing apparatus and method

Abstract

The invention relates to a beer brewing apparatus and method. The equipment consists of a liquid inlet pipeline, a humulus lupulus container, a saccharification container, a fermentation container, a heating unit, a refrigeration unit, a controller and a waterway selection mechanism. The saccharification container is internally equipped with a filter device, and the filter device separates the saccharification container into an upper space for storing malt and a lower space for filtration. The humulus lupulus container is arranged on the upper space, the waterway selection mechanism is arranged above the humulus lupulus container, a bottom outlet of the humulus lupulus container is connected to an inlet of the heating unit, the outlet of the heating unit is connected to the fermentation container, and the refrigeration unit is installed at the fermentation container. Under the control of the controller, the waterway selection mechanism makes the liquid from the liquid inlet pipeline flow into the lower space through a plurality of different flow paths. The beer brewing apparatus provided by the invention has the advantages of small volume, and high degree of automation, etc.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of beer production, in particular to a beer brewing equipment and method. Background technique [0002] With the development of science and technology, home appliances are becoming more and more intelligent, and consumers' tastes are becoming more and more unique. More people tend to drink beer brewed by themselves. [0003] The traditional brewing equipment has the following steps, raw material→crushing→saccharification→filtration→wort boiling→cooling and clarification→inoculation and fermentation→filtration→packaging→finished product. Add the Mai Khan when it boils. [0004] Through the above steps, it can be found that the traditional beer brewing equipment not only requires a large number of cans, but also the volume of a single can is particularly large.

Problems solved by technology

[0004] Through the above steps, it can be found that the traditional beer brewing equipment not only requires a large number of cans, but also the volume of a single can is particularly large. The disadvantages of this method are obvious. Secondly, the equipment has too much manual participation and needs someone to be on duty, and does not have an automatic and intelligent function; moreover, all the containers in the brewing process are fixed on the pipeline and cannot be easily removed, which makes cleaning inconvenient. It is easy to cause problems such as bacterial growth, and the device does not have the function of wireless communication, so users cannot remotely monitor the brewing process in real time through the mobile APP

[0005] After searching the existing documents, it is found that the machine disclosed in the patent CN 103409266 has a huge structure, and all the tanks are fixed on the machine and cannot be removed by the user, and the containers of some existing brewing equipment cannot be removed from the machine. In the invention patent described in CN 204162692, the two jars are also fixed inside the machine and cannot be removed
