Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of whisky brewing, specifically to a grain preparation and cooking device used in whisky brewing. Background Technology

[0002] Whisky is a distilled spirit made from grains such as barley, aged in oak barrels for many years, and blended to a strength of around 43%. The whisky-making process consists of six steps: malting, saccharification, fermentation, distillation, aging, and blending. Of course, the grains used in whisky making need to be steamed to ensure that they meet the requirements for whisky processing and brewing.

[0003] Existing grain preparation and cooking devices typically involve simply steaming the grains in a steamer while they are still in use. During the steaming process, the uneven distribution of grains at different depths results in uneven cooking levels after the grains are heated in the steamer. Therefore, this invention proposes a grain preparation and cooking device for whiskey brewing to solve the problems existing in the prior art. Utility Model Content

[0004] In order to overcome the defects in the prior art, this utility model provides a grain preparation and cooking device for whiskey brewing. Through multiple air pipes and outlets in a ring array, combined with the rotation of the grain and the placement layer, the grain is heated by steam more evenly. By placing the grain in multiple layers, it also avoids uneven heating caused by excessively thick stacking of grain. The multi-layer structure also allows the grain to have a larger heating surface, thus being heated and cooked better and more evenly.

[0005] Technical solution

[0006] A grain preparation and cooking device for whiskey brewing includes a box body, the interior of which is provided with a steam chamber and a heating chamber. A support column is rotatably mounted on the bottom of the steam chamber, and a frame is fixed on the upper end of the support column. Several equally spaced and uniformly distributed supports are fixed on the frame, and a grain placement layer is placed on the upper side of the supports.

[0007] Furthermore, a heating wire is installed inside the heating chamber.

[0008] Furthermore, an air vent is provided at the bottom of the steam chamber.

[0009] Furthermore, four air pipes connect the heating chamber and the steam chamber, and each air pipe has an outlet corresponding to the number of supports.

[0010] Furthermore, a motor for driving the frame to rotate is provided on the top of the housing.

[0011] Furthermore, gauze is laid on the placement layer.

[0012] Beneficial effects

[0013] Compared with the prior art, this utility model has the following advantages: by using multiple air pipes and outlets in a ring array, combined with the rotation of the grains and the placement layer, the grains are heated by steam more evenly. By placing the grains in multiple layers, it also avoids uneven heating caused by excessively thick stacking of grains. The multi-layer structure also allows the grains to have a larger heating surface, thus being heated and steamed better and more evenly. Attached Figure Description

[0018] To better illustrate the content of this utility model, the following description is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments:

[0019] have Figures 1-2 As shown, this utility model discloses a grain preparation and cooking device for whiskey brewing, including a box body 1. The box body 1 is provided with a steam chamber 2 and a heating chamber 7. A support column 9 is rotatably provided at the bottom of the steam chamber 2. A frame 5 is fixed at the upper end of the support column 9. Several equally spaced and evenly distributed brackets 4 are fixed on the frame 5. A grain placement layer 10 is placed on the upper side of the brackets 4.

[0020] Furthermore, a heating wire 8 is provided inside the heating chamber 7.

[0021] Furthermore, the bottom of the steam chamber 2 is provided with an air outlet 6.

[0022] Furthermore, four air pipes 11 are connected between the heating chamber 7 and the steam chamber 2, and each air pipe 11 is provided with an outlet 12 corresponding to the number of supports 4.

[0023] Furthermore, a motor 3 for driving the frame 5 to rotate is provided on the top of the housing 1.

[0024] Furthermore, gauze (not shown) is laid on the placement layer 10.

[0025] Specifically, when using it, remove the placement layer 10, lay down gauze, place the grains on the gauze, and then place the placement layer 10 on the support 4.

[0026] Then, steam is generated by heating wire 8. The steam enters the steam chamber 2 through the air pipe 11 and is blown onto the grain.

[0027] At this time, the motor 3 is started, which in turn drives the frame 5 to rotate, which in turn drives the placement layer 10 and the grain to rotate, so that the grain is better heated by steam.

[0028] The thin layer of grains stacked in multiple layers ensures even heating and prevents uneven cooking.

[0029] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Although the technical solutions of this utility model have been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the various embodiments of this utility model.
