Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of probiotic fermentation and mixing technology, and in particular to a sugar and acid adjustment device for wolfberry probiotic fermented beverage. Background Technology
[0002] In the production of goji berry probiotic fermented beverages, precise control of the sugar-acid ratio plays a crucial role in the product's taste, flavor, and the growth environment of probiotics. Currently, common sugar-acid adjustment methods have several shortcomings. Firstly, sugar is typically added manually after weighing, which makes it difficult to ensure the accuracy of the added sugar amount and easily introduces impurities, affecting beverage quality. Furthermore, manual operation is inefficient and unsuitable for large-scale industrial production. Secondly, regarding acidity adjustment, traditional methods often rely on experience, directly adding organic acids or salt solutions to the fermentation broth, lacking real-time and accurate monitoring and control of acidity. Due to the complex environmental factors during fermentation, this experience-based acidification method struggles to maintain stable acidity within a suitable range, potentially leading to excessive pH fluctuations in the fermentation broth, affecting probiotic activity and metabolism, and consequently impacting fermentation results and product quality. In addition, existing sugar-acid adjustment devices are mostly decentralized, independent equipment, requiring frequent material transfers during operation. This not only increases labor intensity but also easily leads to material contamination, failing to meet the requirements of modern, automated production for efficiency, precision, and hygiene. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a sugar and acid adjustment device for the production process of wolfberry probiotic fermented beverage.
[0003] Currently, the sugar and acid adjustment devices for goji berry probiotic fermentation beverages on the market have significant technical defects. On the one hand, sugar addition relies heavily on manual methods, making it difficult to accurately control the amount added, which easily introduces impurities and affects product quality and stability. On the other hand, acidity adjustment lacks real-time and accurate monitoring and control methods; operation based on experience easily leads to excessive acidity fluctuations, which is detrimental to the growth of probiotics and the fermentation process. Moreover, existing devices are mostly decentralized equipment, cumbersome to operate, and involve frequent material transfers, which can easily cause contamination and cannot meet the needs of efficient, precise, and hygienic industrial production.
