“We certainly noticed that the yields are higher, getting more juice from the same amount of fruit. And when you have more fruit to press, the whole process will be a lot more efficient because when you are setting up and breaking down for a small amount it’s a little more time-consuming but if you’re going to run more fruit, you’re still going to have the same amount of set up and clean up time.” -Ron Bixby of Little Apple CideryRead More…
Beer and Cider Pasteurizer
The automatic Beer and Cider Pasteurizer is designed for the pasteurization or heating, as well as the holding and cooling of carbonated or uncarbonated beer or cider. The process is utilized to stop fermentation and stabilize the produce and/or make it food safe before it is bottled. The outgoing product runs through a heat exchanger and cools itself down while simultaneously pre-heating the incoming product. A third heat exchanger that has a chiller can be added to cool the product further if required.
- Product contact parts are constructed of stainless steel (1.4301) or food safe synthetic materials
- Integrated pump (no added pump from the tank to filler necessary)
- Production process reliability - valve closes automatically if the pasteurization temperature is too low
- Easy to operate
- Simple cleaning
- Entire system is mounted on chassis
- 208-480V 60 Hz power supply available
- Machine is delivered ready to operate
- Natural gas, propane, steam or hot water operation is possible (custom heating mediums upon request)
- Easy to read temperature display
- Design customization to meet customer requirements are possible
During the first stage, your beer or cider is pumped through a plated heat exchanger to be pre-heated by the outgoing hot product. In the second stage, the heating systems implement the required heat to bring the product up to the desired temperature. In a holding line, the product is held at the desired temperature for the appropriate time. After exiting the holding line, the product flows out of the pasteurizer from the first stage where it is cooled down by the incoming product. Upon request, a third heat exchanger can be added where the beer or cider is further cooled through a chiller. The heating mediums available are diesel, propane/natural gas, hot water or steam.
The machine is delivered ready to operate. However, before operation the machine must be connected to the heating medium and exhaust system. Once making a connection to the product reservoir and filling device, water is needed to fill the heating cycle. Once completed, the pasteurizer is ready to pasteurize your product.
