[0002] In the winemaking process, soaking grains is a crucial step. It involves soaking the raw grains in water to soften the grains and activate the enzymes in them to prepare for the subsequent fermentation process. This step not only affects the fermentation efficiency, but is also directly related to the flavor and quality of the wine. By soaking grains, it can ensure that the starch in the grains is converted into the sugar required for the fermentation process, and it also helps to increase the alcohol yield and the taste of the wine.

[0003] The traditional grain soaking process has many shortcomings. First, the control of temperature and time often relies on experience and judgment, which is not only inefficient but also has poor repeatability. It is easy for human factors to cause fluctuations in the soaking effect, affecting the consistency of the final product. Secondly, in the traditional soaking process, the management and control of water quality is more difficult, and impurities and microorganisms are easy to multiply, affecting the soaking quality of grain and the safety of subsequent fermentation. Finally, the traditional process requires a lot of manual intervention during the operation, which is not only labor-intensive but also inefficient, and it is difficult to meet the needs of large-scale production.
