Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of brewing equipment technology, specifically a water tank for brewing. Background Technology

[0002] Baijiu (Chinese white liquor) is a distilled spirit made primarily from grains, using daqu (large koji), xiaoqu (small koji), and bran koji as saccharification and fermentation agents, through processes such as steaming, saccharification, fermentation, distillation, aging, and blending. The moisture content of the grain mash entering the fermentation pit is a crucial parameter that must be strictly controlled during the brewing process, as it affects the reproduction and metabolism of microorganisms within the pit and determines whether fermentation can proceed normally. The moisture content of the grain mash exiting the still after distillation often does not meet the required level for fermentation. To ensure proper fermentation, water at a certain temperature needs to be added; this process is called "water measurement." The water measurement temperature often needs to reach 80℃ or even higher. Currently, there are two main types of water measurement equipment used in brewing production: one is the still, which uses steam to heat water within the distillation equipment (the still) for measurement; the other is a dedicated water measurement tank, which uses steam or electricity to heat water within the tank for measurement. The former requires a still, affecting the distillation of alcohol and grains, and it is difficult to control the water temperature to the specified temperature; the latter, although using a dedicated measuring tank, has a complex structure, including the measuring tank body, stirring device, steam coil, and other components, making it difficult to clean and control the water temperature to the specified temperature; while the measuring tank equipment using electric heating has problems such as slow heating, high power consumption, and high cost.

[0003] In summary, the problems with existing technologies are as follows: using a still as a water measuring device results in the occupation of the still, affecting the distillation of alcohol and grains, and making it difficult to control the water temperature to the specified temperature; using a steam-heated water measuring tank results in complex equipment structure, difficulty in cleaning, and difficulty in controlling the water temperature to the specified temperature; and using an electrically heated water measuring tank results in slow heating, high power consumption, and high cost. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology and provide a water measuring tank for brewing that does not occupy the still. It can achieve precise temperature control of water by combining rapid steam heating and electric heating to heat the water to the specified temperature, meet the water measurement needs of different brewing processes, improve production efficiency, and ensure brewing quality.

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution: a water tank for brewing, the water tank for brewing includes a tank body, the tank body is provided with a steam distribution device, the steam distribution device includes a steam inlet and a steam distribution pipe, the steam distribution pipe is arranged inside the tank body, one end of the steam inlet is connected to the steam distribution pipe, and the other end extends out of the tank body.

[0006] An electric heating temperature control device is installed at the bottom of the barrel. The electric heating temperature control device includes a heating tube and a temperature controller. The heating tube is connected to the temperature controller, and the temperature controller is located on the outside of the barrel, while the heating tube is located inside the barrel. It can use the steam generated by the existing boiler of the brewing enterprise to quickly heat the water to a near-predetermined temperature, and then start the electric heating temperature control device to achieve the purpose of precise temperature control.

[0007] The steam distribution pipe has several small holes evenly distributed on its wall, and a blind plate is installed at the outlet of the steam distribution pipe, which can effectively reduce the noise generated when steam and water are mixed.

[0008] The barrel wall consists of an inner barrel wall and an outer barrel wall, with insulation material filling the space between the inner and outer barrel walls. This helps meet the barrel's insulation requirements and reduces energy consumption.

[0009] The tank is also equipped with a level gauge, which includes a level tube. The bottom of the level tube is connected to the bottom of the tank, and the top of the level tube is connected to the top of the tank, so as to facilitate observation of the water level inside the tank.

[0010] The level gauge also includes a lower level gauge valve and an upper level gauge valve. The lower level gauge valve is located at the bottom of the level tube, and the upper level gauge valve is located at the top of the level tube. When the level gauge is not needed, both the lower and upper level gauge valves can be closed.

[0011] A thermometer is installed at the bottom of the tank. The thermometer includes a temperature measuring part and a display part. The temperature measuring part is connected to the display part. The display part is located on the outside of the tank. The temperature measuring part penetrates into the inside of the tank to facilitate observation of the water temperature.

[0012] It also includes a support, and the bottom of the barrel is set as a conical bottom, and the bottom of the barrel is connected to the support. The conical bottom avoids water residue.

[0013] The upper part of the barrel is provided with a water inlet, and the bottom of the barrel is provided with a water outlet.

[0014] The top of the barrel is equipped with a lid, which can be opened at any time to observe and clean the inside of the barrel.

[0015] The bucket lid is equipped with a vent for venting.

[0016] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0017] 1. This utility model can utilize the steam generated by the existing boilers of brewing enterprises to quickly heat water to near the predetermined temperature, and then start the electric heating temperature control device to achieve precise temperature control. At the same time, it also solves the problems of slow speed and high cost of simple electric heating.

[0018] 2. The multiple uniform small holes on the pipe wall of the steam distribution pipe of this utility model can enable the steam to quickly heat the water in the tank and stir and mix the hot and cold water, ensuring that the water in the tank can be heated evenly. At the same time, the presence of the blind plate and the multiple uniform small holes on the pipe wall can effectively reduce the noise generated when the steam and water are mixed.
