Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of cheese product manufacturing technology, specifically a hot and cold water generating machine for cheese product manufacturing. Background Technology

[0002] Cheese products refer to dairy products made primarily from animal milk such as cow's milk, goat's milk, and buffalo milk, processed through core techniques such as curdling, whey removal, fermentation, and maturation, or further processed with the addition of other auxiliary ingredients (such as sugar, fruits, vegetables, grains, and spices). Their core characteristic is the coagulation of proteins (mainly casein) in the milk through the action of enzymes (rennet) and microorganisms (lactic acid bacteria, etc.), resulting in products with different textures, flavors, and nutritional values. Cheese is one of the dairy products with high protein and calcium content. A hot and cold water generator is a commercial or household drinking water device that integrates cold water preparation, hot water heating, and ambient temperature water supply. Its core function is to quickly provide users with drinking water at different temperatures. Cheese production is extremely sensitive to water temperature; deviations in water temperature can directly affect curd formation, flavor compound generation, microbial activity, and the texture of the finished product. Several key stages in the production process require strict temperature control; therefore, a hot and cold water generator for cheese production is needed.

[0003] Existing hot and cold water making machines for cheese production typically store external water in a storage tank. When in use, the water in the storage tank is pumped into the hot or cold water equipment to produce hot or cold water. However, over time, impurities can easily accumulate in the water in the storage tank, causing the produced hot or cold water to fail to meet food-grade standards, thus reducing the quality of the cheese products and failing to meet consumer demand.
