Abstract

The invention provides a beer vending system, intelligent craft beer machines and a beer vending method. The system comprises a plurality of intelligent craft beer machines and servers; each intelligent craft beer machine comprises a base, a fermentation tank, a temperature regulation unit, a man-machine interaction module, a communication unit, a flow monitoring unit and a control unit; the control units are used for conducting integral control on the intelligent craft beer machines; the flow monitoring units are used for monitoring the beer flow output by beer outlet pipes of the automatic fermentation tanks; based on transaction confirmation requests from user terminals or the intelligent craft beer machines, the servers control the craft beer machines to discharge beer, so that vending operation is completed; the servers are also used for receiving state information from the intelligent craft beer machines and sending response control instructions to the intelligent craft beer machines based on the state information, and / or are used for receiving sales relevant data from the intelligent craft beer machines and generating beer sales statistical data based on the sales relevant data.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of craft beer, in particular to an automatic beer vending system, an intelligent craft beer machine and an automatic beer vending method. Background technique [0002] Beer is a low-alcohol fermented wine containing carbon dioxide, which is made from grains and water as the main raw materials, added with hops (or hop products) and fermented by yeast. According to raw materials and fermentation process, beer can generally be divided into craft beer and industrial beer. Craft beer is usually brewed using only malt, hops, yeast and water, with no artificial additives added. Although industrial beer is also brewed with malt, hops, yeast and water, in order to pursue cost, more raw materials such as rice, corn and starch are used to replace malt. Compared with industrial beer, craft beer has more malt content and more hops, so the brewed wort has a higher concentration and a richer and unique taste. With the i...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

For small craft breweries, there are problems of large equipment investment and large floor area, resulting in relatively high costs, and the produced beer is distributed to various sales points for sale, it is difficult to ensure the freshness of craft beer, so it is difficult for users to drink Fresh craft beer; for craft beer houses, there are also problems of relatively large equipment investment and relatively large floor space, and the taste of brewed craft beer is heavily dependent on the brewer, making it difficult to maintain stability

In addition, the selling point of craft beer is aimed at the people who enter the store for consumption, so not only is the single-order business ability poor, but it is also unable to provide more users with craft beer

In addition, although home-use brewing machines for craft beer have appeared, it also means that if you want to use a home brewing machine to brew wine, you need to buy such a brewing machine and put it at home, which not only takes up space but also costs, and the utilization rate not high enough

Therefore, although more and more people are eager to drink high-quality craft beer, many people cannot drink it conveniently and quickly due to problems such as insufficient sales points of craft beer and the high cost of home brewing machines. to really fresh craft beer
