[0002] Fat dishes, alcoholic beverages, sauces, and dairy products are traditional foods for urban and rural residents in my country. They are generally fermented by lactic acid bacteria to produce vinegar substances, which not only increase the natural vinegar aroma and flavor, but also increase the shelf life of food. Fermentation refers to the process of microorganisms decomposing organic matter under certain conditions. In food production, the fermentation process is often used to make foods such as bread, yogurt, coffee, and beer. During the fermentation process, microorganisms will decompose the sugars in the ingredients to produce carbon dioxide, acetaldehyde, acetic acid and other substances, causing the food to swell, become sour, and become alcoholic. For different foods, the conditions and methods of fermentation are different. Some foods need to be properly stirred during the fermentation process, while others do not. This depends on the nature of the food and the requirements of the fermentation conditions.

[0003] In the process of realizing the utility model, the inventors found that the prior art had the following problems: the existing household fermentation tanks are usually just ordinary tanks, lacking diversified functions. For example, some foods need to be stirred regularly during fermentation, and the total area in contact with air is conducive to the action of oxidase. Manual stirring is required, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and the stirring uniformity is poor, affecting later consumption. Utility Model Content
