The above document still has deficiencies. When in use, a discharge mechanism is provided at the bottom of the storage mechanism, and a plurality of storage mechanisms are used to store a plurality of dairy fermentation bacterial strains. The storage mechanism and the discharge mechanism are used in combination to facilitate the bacterial strains to pass through the feed holes and enter the interior of the fermentation tank body, so that the addition of bacterial strains can be completed quickly. It is convenient to control the amount of added strains, and multiple storage mechanisms and discharging mechanisms are used in combination to add different types of strains. However, in the above document, a more complex mechanical structure is used to avoid air from entering the interior of the fermentation tank when adding strains.
