Problems solved by technology

[0003] At present, the commonly used fermentation method for Pu-erh cooked tea is stacking fermentation, that is, stacking Pu-erh tea on the ground to a certain height, generally 70-100 cm, and adding a certain amount of water for stacking fermentation. The temperature and water content, judge the time of turning over, replenishing water, and the time of ending fermentation through experience, the whole process is carried out in an open environment, harmful microorganisms in the environment cannot be controlled, and hygiene cannot be guaranteed, and because it is natural pile fermentation , the fermentation process will cause high core temperature, low peripheral temperature, uneven fermentation, long fermentation cycle, and many uncontrollable factors in the fermentation, resulting in unstable product quality after fermentation and cannot be unified
[0004] In response to the above problems, some manufacturers have established off-the-ground fermentation technology, that is, Pu-erh tea is fermented in a specific space, including fermentation in a fermentation tank, off-the-ground fermentation on wooden boards, and tea-building fermentation in bamboo baskets. There has been some improvement, but the entire fermentation process is still uncontrollable; and, with the improvement of the quality requirements for Pu-erh cooked tea products, further improvement of fermentation technology is required, for example, in a closed environment, the environment is relatively clean, and different microorganisms are added to promote the fermentation process. Fermentation process, although this fermentation technology strengthens the role of microorganisms to a certain extent, the types of microorganisms are still uncontrollable, and the fermentation process is still a natural pile, with a long fermentation period. Although a stirring paddle is added, it replaces artificial Turning over the heap, due to the strong force of the stirring machine, it is easy to stir and break the tea leaves in the heap. None of the above technologies has substantially improved the fermentation process of Pu-erh cooked tea
Chinese patent application 200920111698.9 further improved the fermentation technology of Pu'er cooked tea, and designed a double-layer moisturizing and rotating Pu'er tea fermenter. Due to the sealing of the fermenter, it can reduce the volatilization of water during the fermentation process, and make the fermentation more uniform through the rotation of the fermenter. , can maintain the integrity of the tea leaves, but still cannot precisely control the key parameters of the Pu-erh tea fermentation process, such as temperature and humidity; Chinese patent application 201120201948.5 regulates the temperature by adjusting the steam volume and air intake volume, and the steam is easy to form a local high temperature, Affects the quality of tea; Chinese patent application 201520087465.5 improves the fermentation tank of Pu’er tea, and adopts the method of rotating the stirring rod to make Pu’er tea d

Abstract

The present invention discloses a fermentation tank for Pu'er cooked tea. The fermentation tank comprises a rotary fermentation tank body (1) and a water thermal insulation jacket (12). A hollow tube (21) is arranged inside the rotary fermentation tank body (1) and used to pump air into the rotary fermentation tank body (1) from an air inlet; a first wireless temperature sensor (18), a wireless humidity sensor (19) and a pressure gauge (20) are fixed on the water thermal insulation jacket (12); and a second wireless temperature sensor (8) and a second wireless humidity sensor (9) are also arranged in the rotary fermentation tank body (1). By improving the structure, arrangement ways, etc. of key components, compared with the technology at the prior art, the fermentation tank achieves an automatic temperature and humidity controlled clean and high-efficient fermentation of the Pu'er cooked tea, avoids the effects of harmful microorganisms in the fermentation process of the traditional Pu'er cooked tea, and automatically controls the fermentation in the whole processes, The Pu'er cooked tea products is high and stable in quality and the fermentation tank can be widely used in a large-scale fermentation production of the Pu'er cooked tea.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of fermentation equipment, and more specifically relates to a Pu'er cooked tea fermentation tank, which has the characteristics of automatic control, high and stable quality, and high fermentation efficiency, and is especially suitable for the fermentation of Pu'er cooked tea. Background technique [0002] Pu-erh tea is made of sun-dried green tea with large leaves from Yunnan as raw material, and is processed by sub-fermented green tea method and fermented by stacking. Tea. [0003] At present, the commonly used fermentation method for Pu-erh cooked tea is stacking fermentation, that is, stacking Pu-erh tea on the ground to a certain height, generally 70-100 cm, and adding a certain amount of water for stacking fermentation. The temperature and water content, judge the time of turning over, replenishing water, and the time of ending fermentation through experience, the whole process is carried out in an op...
