Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of yellowing tea leaves, in particular to a device for yellowing tea leaves. Background Art

[0002] Yellowing is a unique process in the production of some teas. It refers to piling up the tea leaves after withering, rolling or initial baking while hot, so that the tea leaves gradually turn yellow under the action of moisture and heat. The factors affecting yellowing mainly include the water content and leaf temperature of the tea leaves. The higher the water content and the higher the leaf temperature, the faster the yellowing process under moisture and heat conditions. Yellowing is the key process to form the beautiful color and mellow tea aroma of tea. The yellowing box is also a commonly used tool in the yellowing process of tea.

[0003] However, the existing yellowing box for tea processing cannot directly observe the work progress inside the yellowing box from the outside, so the staff can only judge the working time of the tea based on the yellowing box. The judgment of time is prone to errors, which affects the quality of the tea processed in the yellowing box and is not conducive to improving the quality of the tea after yellowing. Utility Model Content
