Meat maturity monitoring devices
Technical Field
The utility model relates to a meat maturity monitoring devices.
Background
The existing oven judges the meat maturity in the barbecue process mainly by controlling the combination time of temperature and humidity in the oven and empirical values to judge whether the meat is mature. If the meat is judged to be mature through the temperature in the oven, the taste of the mature meat is slightly related to the moisture content in the meat, but the existing single temperature sensor cannot detect the moisture content in the meat, so that the taste of the prepared meat is poor. If meat is broken through humidity in the oven and is mature, the moisture contained in meat with different volumes cannot be guaranteed to be consistent in baking by adopting a temperature parameter, and accurate judgment cannot be carried out.
As can be seen in fig. 6, it takes a long time for the meat to be well cooked (99%) when the internal temperature of the meat mass is greater than 80 ℃. That is, the meat maturity can hardly be judged according to the temperature value inside the meat, and experience is needed to determine the maturity from time according to the size of the meat, such as 10 minutes and 30 minutes, which is difficult to be accurate to 1 minute, and the deviation is very large. Therefore, a great deal of waste of meat processing time can be caused, and the maturity can not be ensured.
The Chinese utility model patent with application number CN 201810735289.X provides a monitoring method and a wireless thermometer for detecting the meat maturity, corresponding first temperature value and first roasting time are set according to the type and the maturity of meat, and the first temperature value and the first roasting time set for the same maturity of different meat are different; the first temperature value and the first roasting time which are automatically obtained by the same meat with different degrees of maturity are different; obtaining a real-time second temperature value and a second meat roasting time of the meat blocks according to the temperature change of the temperature detection points; when the second temperature value is equal to the first temperature value or the second barbecue time is equal to the first barbecue time, the wireless thermometer gives out an alarm prompt; the wireless thermometer comprises a probe assembly, a transmitter and a receiver; the probe assembly is used for detecting a temperature signal of food baked in the oven; the utility model discloses can realize setting up food maturity, and have the advantage of real-time supervision food temperature and detection food maturity, timely police dispatch newspaper.
The above patent judges the degree of ripeness of the food by time and temperature detection of the food, but does not consider that the taste of the meat after ripeness is greatly related to the amount of water in the meat, and the taste of the meat after preparation is poor.
