Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sour beer processing, and in particular to a device for the natural acidification of sour beer. Background Technology

[0002] Sour beer is a type of beer that develops a sour taste through specific processes during brewing. It is a unique category of craft beer. Its sour taste mainly comes from the action of microorganisms such as lactic acid bacteria and acetic acid bacteria during fermentation. These microorganisms produce acidic substances such as lactic acid and acetic acid during fermentation, giving the beer a tangy and refreshing taste.

[0003] Currently, in the brewing of sour beer, after the barley malt is saccharified to obtain wort, it undergoes an acidification process. Once the pH value decreases, the next step of the processing can be carried out.

[0004] However, the patent application with publication number CN217651172U in the prior art requires constant temperature fermentation for 3 days to prepare sour wort. Processing sour wort with two sour wort tanks avoids the waste of resources caused by a single sour wort tank when the sour wort in the tank is used up and there is no new sour wort to replenish it, which prevents the acidification tank from working continuously. The acidification tank can add hops and complete the acidification process, which can reduce the number of brewery equipment.

[0005] However, the acidification equipment used in modern sour beer production processes installs a level sensor inside the tank for detection. But the current level sensor is installed on the inner wall of the tank, which causes raw material residue to accumulate on the sensor surface, making it difficult to clean and potentially causing problems in later use.

[0006] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a device for the natural acidification of sour beer to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0049] One end of the detector body 81 is connected to a detection line 83.

[0050] The fixing component 10 includes a fixing hoop 101, two threaded rods 102 and two threaded sleeves 103. The fixing hoop 101 is sleeved on the surface of the detector body 81. The two threaded rods 102 are symmetrically connected to the surface of the fixing hoop 101 through connecting blocks. The two threaded sleeves 103 are respectively threaded to the surfaces of the two threaded rods 102.

[0051] The mounting cylinder 7 is installed obliquely on the storage tank 5. The use of two sealing rings 82 can seal the gap between the detector body 81 and the mounting cylinder 7 after the detector body 81 is installed inside the mounting cylinder 7.

[0052] The fixing hoop 101 is fixed on the surface of the detector body 81. The surface of the cylinder cover 9 is provided with a mounting through hole that matches the threaded rod 102.
