RU2508015C1 - Kinkan compote sterilisation method - Google Patents

Abstract

FIELD: food industry.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to preservation industry, in particular, to a method for sterlisation of kinkan compote in jars. The method is as follows: one performs jars putting (after sealing) into the carrier ensuring mechanical air-tightness of the jars. One proceeds with simultaneous staged heating of some jars in baths filled with 60, 80 and 100°C water and 120°C calcium chloride solution during 6, 6, 6 and 4 minutes respectively and cooling of other jars in the same baths filled with 100, 80 and 60°C water during 6, 6 and 6 minutes with continuation of cooling in another bath at water temperature equal to 40°C during 6 minutes. During the heat treatment process the jar is turned upside down with a frequency equal to 0.166 s^-1.

EFFECT: invention usage allows to enhance the kinkan compote sterilisation quality.

Description

The invention relates to the canning industry, and in particular to methods of sterilizing compote from kinkana in cans SKO 1-82-1000.

Sources, which were searched by this method, showed that the prototype of the proposed method is a method of sterilizing canned food "Compote from kinkana" in an autoclave [1] according to the mode

$$\frac{25-35-25}{{\mathrm{one\; hundred}}^{\circ }C}\cdot 118\mathrm{to}P\mathrm{but}$$

where 25 is the duration of the period of heating water to 100 ° C, min;

35 - the length of the period of its own sterilization at 100 ° C, min;

25 - the duration of the cooling period, min;

100 ° С - sterilization temperature, ° С;

118 - back pressure in the autoclave, kPa.

The main disadvantages of this method are:

- long duration of the process of heat treatment of the product;

- uneven heat treatment of the product in banks;

- high consumption of thermal energy and water

The technical result of the invention is aimed at creating a method for the production of compote contributing to: reducing the duration of the process; preservation of biologically active components of the raw materials used; reducing the number of boiled fruits and fruits with cracked peels; providing simultaneous heating and cooling of cans with canned goods in the same bathtubs and thereby contributing to the simplification of the process of heat treatment and the design of the apparatus for heat sterilization, by reducing its overall dimensions and metal consumption and significant savings of heat and water.

The specified technical result is achieved due to the fact that the cans after seaming are installed in a special carrier that provides mechanical tightness of the cans and are preheated in the first bath with water at a temperature of 60 ° C for 6 minutes, followed by transfer to the second and third baths with water temperature respectively 80 ° C for 6 min, 100 ° C for 6 min and a fourth bath with a solution of calcium chloride temperature of 120 ° C for 4 min, followed by cooling in the third, second and first baths with water temperature at 100, 80, and 60 ° С for 6, 6, and 6 min, respectively, and continued cooling in the fifth bath at a water temperature of 40 ° С for 6 min, and during the heat treatment, the jar is rotated from the bottom to the lid with a frequency of 0.166 s ^-1 .

An example implementation of the method.

After sealing, the cans with compote are installed in a carrier that provides mechanical tightness (preventing caps from breaking during the heat treatment), and placed in a hot water bath at 60 ° C for 6 minutes. After 6 minutes, the carrier with the cans is transferred to a bath of water at a temperature of 80 ° C for 6 minutes, then to a bath of water at a temperature of 100 ° C for 6 min and with a solution of calcium chloride at a temperature of 120 ° C for 4 min. After this time, the banks are cooled in the same baths: in the third bath at a water temperature of 100 ° C for 6 min, in the second bath at a water temperature of 80 ° C for 6 min and in the first bath for 6 min at a water temperature of 60 ° C, in which the next batch of cans is simultaneously heated, with further cooling continued in the fifth bath at a water temperature of 40 ° C for 6 minutes, and during the heat treatment, the can is rotated from the bottom to the lid with a frequency of 0.166 s ^-1 .

The use of stepwise cooling of compote in the same bathtubs where heating is carried out helps to simplify the heat treatment process and the design of the sterilization apparatus, provides significant savings in heat energy and water, since with this design of heat treatment, canned food is used in the first and second baths the heat given off by banks cooled in the same bathtubs that have already undergone heat treatment, and water for cooling is consumed only in the last bath.

The salient features of the proposed method are four-stage heating of compote in water at temperatures of 60, 80, 100 ° C and a solution of calcium chloride at a temperature of 120 ° C, respectively, 6, 6, 6 and 4 minutes, followed by four-stage cooling for 6, 6, 6 and 6 minutes and while the processes of heating and cooling cans, in addition to the last stages of heating and cooling, are carried out simultaneously in the same bathtubs.

This mode provides significant savings in thermal energy, water, reducing the process time and thereby improving the quality of the finished product.
