Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of black tea fermentation technology, specifically a temperature-controlled black tea fermentation device. Background Technology

[0002] Fermentation is a key step in the production of black tea. The essence of black tea fermentation is that polyphenols in tea leaves undergo an oxidative polymerization reaction under the catalysis of polyphenol oxidase and peroxidase, producing oxidation products such as theaflavins, thearubigins and theabrownins. Black tea fermentation equipment is used for the fermentation of black tea.

[0003] Chinese patent discloses a temperature-controlled black tea fermentation device (authorization announcement number CN217695151U).
