Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of beer production, in particular to a beer production fermentation tank. Background Art
[0002] Beer is a beverage made from malt and hops as the main raw materials through fermentation. Generally, the malt is ground and mixed with water, then heated to a certain temperature to convert starch into sugar, and then hop extract is added for boiling. After the boiled liquid cools, yeast is added. The yeast converts sugar into alcohol and carbon dioxide, thereby producing the mellow flavor and bubbles of beer. The fermentation tank in beer production is a device used for the beer fermentation process. The fermentation tank is usually a large container made of stainless steel, designed to provide suitable environmental conditions to promote the fermentation of yeast in maltose.
[0003] During the beer fermentation process, some materials may adhere to the inner wall of the fermentation tank. This is mainly because the yeast and other microorganisms used in beer fermentation will multiply in the fermentation tank and form a thin film, often called "tartar". Tartar is mainly composed of organic matter such as yeast and protein. The adhesion of tartar does not necessarily cause problems, but long-term accumulation of tartar may affect fermentation performance and hinder the effective fermentation of yeast.
