[0002] Millet wine is sweet and mellow, with a unique flavor. It is very popular among men, women, old and young. It is very simple to make and easy to master. Making wine is very particular about the weather. It takes different time to make it in different seasons. At present, fermentation tanks are used in the production and processing of millet wine.

[0003] Millet wine needs to be in a sealed environment during the fermentation process. The purpose of sealing is to ensure that the yeast reproduces in an anaerobic state and converts the glucose inside into alcohol and carbon dioxide, so that the brewed rice wine is sweeter and more delicious. If it is not sealed, the glucose in the rice wine may be oxidized, resulting in a worse taste. However, when the rice wine is first fermented, a slight gap can be left to allow air to enter, so as to accelerate the reproduction of yeast and thus increase the fermentation speed. However, the existing fermentation tanks often isolate the air by closing the tank lid, making it difficult to transport air in, which slows down the reproduction of yeast. Therefore, the utility model proposes a fermentation device for millet wine production and processing to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content
