When the heating tube 307 is turned on, the raw material of sweet bean sauce inside the fermentation tank 1 is heated through the single-head heating tube 307. At the same time, the drive motor 9 drives the first gear 10 to drive the second gear 11 and the installed stirring tube 303 to rotate, which in turn drives the single-head heating tube 307 and the temperature sensor 304 to rotate, thereby stirring the raw material of sweet bean sauce inside the fermentation tank 1 and heating the raw material. The internal temperature is monitored by the temperature sensor 304. When the temperature reaches the required temperature, the single-head heating tube 307 is turned off and stirring stops. After fermentation is completed, the fermented sweet bean sauce inside the fermentation tank 1 is discharged through the discharge pipe 7 by opening the valve 6. At the same time, the sealing cover 2 is lifted by the electric push rod 5 to clean the inside of the fermentation tank 1 for subsequent use.
