Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of fermentation equipment technology, and in particular relates to a fragrance and flavor fermentation device. Background Technology

[0002] The core of flavor and fragrance fermentation is to produce target flavor substances through microbial metabolism. Suitable conditions are the key to ensuring fermentation efficiency and product quality. Flavor and fragrance fermentation needs to meet the nutritional, environmental and process control conditions suitable for microorganisms. Different microorganisms (bacteria, yeast, mold) and target products have different conditions. The core function of flavor and fragrance fermentation equipment is to transform raw materials into target aroma components through a controllable fermentation process. Its role is to improve the quality of flavor and fragrance, enrich the aroma types and ensure production efficiency.

[0003] Currently, to maintain the internal temperature of fermentation tanks and provide a suitable fermentation temperature for flavorings and fragrances, most methods install an electric heating plate at the bottom of the fermentation tank. The heat provided by the electric heating plate provides the appropriate fermentation temperature, while an internal stirring device agitates the flavorings and fragrances to ensure they are fully heated. Although this structure provides the necessary temperature, the electric heating plate's location at the bottom of the fermentation tank results in a concentrated heat source, requiring prolonged agitation to ensure adequate heating, leading to low efficiency. Therefore, we propose a flavoring and fragrance fermentation device. Utility Model Content
