Definitions

  • the solution concerns a wooden longitudinal profile chain piece, and the way of its adjustment, which has a use especially in the food industry for fermenting and in adjustment of the taste of alcoholic beverages in stainless steel containers, particularly in the production of beer and wine.
  • the Document WO 2014/114827 Al mentions in the first claim a special bottle cork, which contains wooden chips that are in submerged in the alcoholic fluid in the bottle. But that doesn't solve the problem of the production of flavored alcoholic beverages in wholesale, because it only includes the making of a one bottle beverage, which comes in contact with the wooden chips only in the throat of the bottle.
  • a wooden longitudinal article chain piece for fermenting and production of flavored alcoholic beverages in stainless steel barrels that consists of a wooden base, from which protrudes at least one bulkhead, whilst the base is on both of the opposing ends provided with an opening, that serves for the possible concatenation of individual articles with a stainless steel metal ring.
  • the whole profiled wooden longitudinal article chain piece is made of one piece of wood.
  • the wooden longitudinal profile chain piece is characteristic for its base in a rectangle shape, from which on one side perpendicularly protrude 5 bulkheads, which have free beveled ends with gaps in between.
  • the wooden longitudinal profile chain piece is made from oak wood of appropriate quality according to the location and species of the oak wood, used for a certain brand of alcohol.
  • the wooden longitudinal profile chain piece is also characteristic by holes that go through stainless steel circles while the formation of a strip, a chain from wooden articles.
  • the raw oak article chain is disinfected, and it gradually dries, and is put dry alternately in alcohol of the wanted taste and water, after it is left to ferment for the minimum of ten days.
  • the method of the invention is characterized by progress of disinfection of the wooden lingual profiled chain link at 250 °C, after that it's filled in a natural way with a chosen spirit in the ratio of 1 part : 1 part of clear water, thereafter the article is placed in a vacuum package, and is under ultrasound with a frequency of 35 to 40 kHz for the time of at least five minutes, and is left to ferment for the time of twenty days.
  • the method of the invention is characterized by the time of the ultrasound and the centrifugal force on the wooden longitudinal profiled chain link being the same amount, and is directly proportional to the age of the used spirit where one year of means one minute of effect of ultrasound and one minute of centrifuging. For adjusting ten pieces of articles 400ml of spirit is enough.
  • the mentioned wooden longitudinal profile chain pieces are filled with a chosen spirit naturally with the use of the oak woods ability to take into its cells a wanted ingredient instead of bound water.
  • the bound water is displaced from the wood cells by gradually drying and getting rid of its microorganisms. Then it goes into the phase of fermentation, where the cells of the wood are gradually filled in the passing of time, which changes according to the type of the used spirit.
  • the longest time of filling takes thirty days.
  • the wood is constructed so the surface represents the inside surface of the original classic oak barrels, including the ability to give over equally the taste to the future ripe product.
  • the wooden longitudinal profile chain piece enables variable use in the food industry, where it's possible to choose the type of the spirit according to the customers wishes without lowering the quality, where the price of the fermentation is around a half of the costs, and shortens the time to two thirds.
  • the other advantage is high hygiene and the availability of the wooden longitudinal profile chain piece whilst the fermentation of the product, because it's possible to achieve a perfect result while using present stainless steel barrels of different sizes.
  • the wooden longitudinal profile chain piece enables variable use in the production of the wanted technology foi BARREL AGED", therefore fermentation of beer products in barrels particularly, in which originally noble spirits fermented e.g. whisky, cognac, rum... Wooden enables to completely replace the use of original expensive oak barrels. It's possible to choose the type of the spirit according to the customers wishes without lowering the quality, where the price of the fermentation is around a half of the costs, and shortens the time to two thirds.
  • the other advantage of the new technology is high hygiene and availability, because It' possible to achieve a perfect result while using present stainless steel metals and different cubage. it's possible to perfectly dimensate on any quantity of the future product. It gives an opportunity to the producer to experiment with different kinds of flavors with a big comfort with no evident of failing.

On picture 3 is the back view of the article and on picture 4 is its platform. On picture 5 is the articles elevation and on picture 6 is it's platform. On picture 7 is a perspective look on the whole article. On picture 8 is the platform of the connecting eye and in picture 9 is a schema of the chain from the mentioned wooden articles.
  • the wooden longitudinal profile chain piece was tested in practice in the years of 2014 and 2015 in the Brevnov monastic brewery of st.Vojtech in Prague 6, CZ, and the practice for use in wine was done in Vlasska 2, Moscow 1, CZ.
  • the following examples of use of the wooden longitudinal profile chain piece according to the invention prove that they don't limit the manufacturer.
  • Wooden longitudinal profile chain pieces according to the invention were made from appropriate oak wood with an optimal length of 100mm, width of 25 mm, and height of 20 mm. Holes 3 in the base 1 had a diameter of 5 mm, gaps 4 between bulkheads 2 were wide 2,2 mm, external bulkheads were thick 3,6 mm, the inner bulkheads 2 were thick only 3 mm. The ends of the bulkheads 2 were beveled at an angle of 45°.
  • the wooden longitudinal profile chain piece according to the invention in the amount of ten pieces were properly disinfected in a hot aired halogen oven with a temperature of 250 °C, where they got rid of microorganisms, and they were filled in a natural way with the chosen spirit with the ratio of 1 piece : 1 piece of clear water with the ability of oak wood to accept the wanted ingredient into its cells instead of the bound water. About 400 ml of spirit should be used for 10 pieces of articles.
  • the filled articles were cooked into a plastic vacuum container, later they were under ultrasound with a frequency between 35 and 40 KHz for ten minutes in a temperature of 40 to 45 °C
  • the filled articles were cooked into a plastic vacuum container, later they were under ultrasound with a frequency between 35 and 40 KHz for ten minutes in a temperature of 40 to 45 °C.
