Description

La présente invention concerne une machine destinée à l'élaboration et le stockage temporaire d'un levain liquide renouvelé quotidiennement avec prélèvement par gravitation de la couche la plus ancienne, destiné à la fabrication de pâte à pains ou viennoiseries, toutes recettes confondues, nécessitant normalement des ajouts de levure et/ou d'améliorantsThe present invention relates to a machine for the production and temporary storage of a liquid leaven renewed daily with gravitation sampling of the oldest layer, intended for the manufacture of bread dough or pastries, all recipes combined, normally requiring additions of yeast and / or improvers

On connaît, par les documents FR 2 716 337- A1 et FR 2 762 476- A1 des machines ayant le même objectif, à savoir la fabrication et le stockage de levain liquide.We know, by the documents FR 2 716 337-A1 and FR 2 762 476-A1 machines with the same objective, namely the manufacture and storage of liquid leaven.

Cependant, ces machines s'axent essentiellement sur une qualité de brassage du mélange primaire d'eau et de farine dans un premier temps et ensuite sur une fermentation accélérée par augmentation de température du mélange et sur une conservation de ce dernier en réduisant cette même température de mélange. De ce fait, ces machines restent relativement complexes pour un utilisateur non averti, elles nécessitent des réglages et suivis précis de consignes de températures et/ou de temps d'élaboration et de conservation.However, these machines focus essentially on a brewing quality of the primary mixture of water and flour in a first step and then on an accelerated fermentation by increasing the temperature of the mixture and on a conservation of the latter by reducing this same temperature mixture. As a result, these machines remain relatively complex for an unsuspecting user, they require precise adjustments and follow-ups of temperature and / or time of preparation and conservation instructions.

De plus, pour ce faire les machines sont pourvues de moyens techniques de production de chaleur et de refroidissement lourds et sophistiqués, nécessitant de l'énergie électrique et pour ce faire une installation fixe de distribution adaptée, et entraînant, à moyen terme, des opérations d'entretien et/ou de réparations. La présente invention a pour but d'éliminer les inconvénients ci-dessus des machines connues.In addition, to do this, the machines are equipped with sophisticated and sophisticated heat and cooling technology, requiring electrical energy, and to do this, a fixed distribution installation adapted to the medium-term operation. maintenance and / or repairs. The present invention aims to eliminate the above disadvantages of known machines.

A cet effet, l'invention propose une machine destinée à l'élaboration et le stockage temporaire d'un levain liquide obtenu à partie de matières premières à base d'eau et de farine, comprenant une cuve dans laquelle sont introduites les matières premières préalablement mélangées, équipée d'un organe de brassage de ce mélange et, par le bas, d'un moyen d'évacuation du levain fabriqué. L'organe de brassage est formé d'un axe central posé sur un guide centré et relié à la paroi intérieure de la cuve par des bras fixes, il est également pourvu de spatules de mélange inclinées disposées de part et d'autre de l'axe central.For this purpose, the invention proposes a machine for the production and temporary storage of a liquid leaven obtained from raw materials based on water and flour, comprising a tank into which the raw materials are introduced beforehand. mixed, equipped with a stirring member of this mixture and, from below, a means of evacuation of the leaven manufactured. The stirring member is formed of a central axis placed on a centered guide and connected to the inner wall of the vessel by fixed arms, it is also provided with inclined mixing spatulas arranged on either side of the central axis.

Les spatules sont décalées en hauteur à des intervalles réguliers et calculés de manière à assurer un mélange homogène du produit et une dé stratification des couches successives de matières premières ajoutées. Sur un des côtés l'organe de brassage est équipé d'un racleur gradué permettant à la fois de racler la face intérieure de la paroi de la cuve et de contrôler la quantité de produit disponible, il se termine, à l'extrémité haute de l'axe par une manivelle, donnant ainsi la possibilité de faire tourner l'organe de brassage à droite ou à gauche.The spatulas are offset in height at regular intervals and calculated so as to ensure a homogeneous product mixture and a stratification of the successive layers of added raw materials. On one side the brewing unit is equipped with a graduated scraper allowing both scraping the inside of the wall of the tank and controlling the amount of product available, it ends at the top end of the tank. the axis by a crank, thus giving the possibility of turning the stirring member to the right or left.

Un couvercle, muni d'une trappe d'accès sur charnières pour l'adjonction de produits sans démontage du couvercle recouvre le dessus de la cuve.A lid, with a hinged access door for the addition of products without disassembly of the cover covers the top of the tank.

Avantageusement, la cuve est reliée, par le bas, à une trémie, elle-même raccordée en son dessous à une vanne centrale, permettant de soutirer l'intégralité de la couche de levain liquide la plus ancienne. Enfin, l'ensemble est relié à des pieds réglables soudés à l'extérieur de la cuve, permettant le passage d'un récipient dé récupération du produit sous la vanne.Advantageously, the tank is connected, from below, to a hopper, itself connected in its underside to a central valve, to extract the entirety of the oldest liquid leaven layer. Finally, the assembly is connected to adjustable feet welded to the outside of the tank, allowing the passage of a product recovery container under the valve.

La machine autorise donc, de part sa conception, l'élaboration d'un levain liquide par la méthode du rafraîchi, bien connue dans le milieu professionnel, avec l'avantage de permettre un prélèvement quotidien de levain liquide prêt à l'emploi.The machine thus allows, by design, the development of a liquid leaven by the method of refreshed, well known in the professional environment, with the advantage of allowing a daily sampling of ready-to-use liquid leaven.

Le principe de base étant de verser dans l'appareil, un mélange eau/farine préalablement brassé dans un batteur mélangeur, et donc d'avoir dès le départ du procédé, un mélange parfaitement homogène.The basic principle is to pour into the device, a mixture of water / flour previously stirred in a mixer, and thus having from the outset of the process, a perfectly homogeneous mixture.

Le prélèvement quotidien du levain liquide permet d'obtenir la quantité de levain liquide nécessaire à une production journalière, sans se préoccuper de réglage de température. Cette quantité étant à nouveau disponible le lendemain selon le procédé suivant :

  • La machine devra être placée idéalement dans un endroit tempéré, à l'abri des variations excessives ou brutales de température. L'utilisateur adaptera ses recettes en fonction des températures ambiantes comme il est pratiqué généralement avec des recettes traditionnelles.
    • 1er JOUR : Verser dans l'appareil une préparation, préalablement mélangée au batteur, de matières premières.
    • 2ème JOUR : Procéder à la même opération que le premier jour, et donner quelques tours de manivelles pour dé stratifier la première et la deuxième couche.
    • 3ème JOUR : Procéder à la même opération que le deuxième jour, et donner quelques tours de manivelles pour dé stratifier les premières couches d'avec la dernière.
    • A partir du 4ème JOUR, appliquer quotidiennement la même opération que le 3ème JOUR.
    • Dès le 4ème JOUR, il est possible de prélever, en une ou plusieurs fois, jusqu'à un tiers du mélange obtenu pour la préparation des pâtes. On donnera quelques tours de manivelles à chaque prélèvement et à chaque ajout afin de garder l'homogénéité du levain liquide et garantir l'ensemencement du nouveau mélange.
  • On notera que la couche ajoutée le deuxième jour, assurera l'étanchéité à l'air de la première couche qui aura mûri à l'air pendant 24 heures, cette deuxième couche mûrira de la même manière pendant 24 heures avant d'être recouverte à son tour par la troisième couche, et ainsi de suite. Chaque couche ajoutée sera ensemencée par la couche précédente grâce à l'organe de brassage.
