It relates to a craft beer manufacturing apparatus and manufacturing platform using a portable terminal that can be.

Beer is a liquor made by making malt from sprouted barley and fermenting it with hops, yeast, and various additives. Beer has a long history to be known as the oldest fermented liquor in the world, and is also one of the most popular alcoholic beverages. Therefore, in the past, there were many types of craft beers in the Middle East, where beer was said to be the first, and in Europe, where beer is said to be home.

However, as the beer industry developed into a large-scale factory production method and was affected by various liquor tax laws and sanitation laws, most of the small and medium-sized craft beer disappeared, and only a few large-brand products have come to dominate the market. However, beer has a variety of tastes and aromas depending on the manufacturing method, condition, or type of additives as well as even the quality of the water. Taverns are gaining popularity. Furthermore, in recent years, there is an increasing trend of people making their own unique craft beer at home, centering on enthusiasts, and a variety of craft beer making equipment and tools are being sold for them.

However, conventional craft beer manufacturing methods or devices or appliances for this are suitable for households such as Europe, which have yards or warehouses, and are bulky and cumbersome to use in homes in Korea, where there are many apartment dwellings, or odors generated during fermentation. Due to this, there is a problem that it is difficult to use easily. For this reason, in recent years, household beer manufacturing apparatuses have been introduced in the form of small household appliances.

However, manufacturing beer is only possible with some specialized knowledge, and it is common for beginners to undergo a lot of trial and error. In fact, it is easy to find the experience that even the man-made beer makers failed many in the early days. In addition, since handmade beer produces various tastes and flavors according to the amount of water, fermentation temperature, and type or amount of additives, there are many manufacturing methods that even experts do not know.

For this reason, a large number of beginners have difficulty in manufacturing beer with the taste and aroma they desire, and for this reason, in many cases, they give up craft beer in the middle. Therefore, it would be nice if there was a device and method that could easily manufacture beer of various flavors and aromas to the level of experts even beginners.

4 is a diagram showing a schematic configuration of a method of manufacturing a craft beer using a craft beer manufacturing apparatus and a manufacturing platform according to the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 4, in the method of manufacturing a craft beer using a platform according to the present invention, the user terminal 100 accesses the server 200, receives user information and information excessively on the beer manufacturing apparatus 10, Transmitting recipe information to the user terminal 100; And receiving an evaluation or correction recipe for recipe information from the user terminal 100.

First, a user who has purchased the handmade beer manufacturing apparatus 10 downloads and installs a dedicated application on his user terminal 100. As described above, the user terminal 100 may be a PC or PDA, but preferably a smart phone may be used. Hereinafter, using a smartphone will be described as an example. A user who has purchased the beer brewing apparatus 10 installs a dedicated application (software) on his user terminal 100 and then accesses the server 200 through the dedicated application. Thus, when a member registers or inputs simple personal information and/or information on the beer brewing apparatus 10 purchased by the person and transmits the information to the server 200, the server 200 stores the received information. The server 200 selectively provides information to be provided to the user terminal 100 using the received information on the beer brewing apparatus 10, or whether the provided recipe information is for the same beer brewing apparatus 10. Etc. can be displayed.

A user who accesses the server 200 through the user terminal 100 may search, download, or upload various recipe information stored in the server 200. For example, after accessing the server 200 through the user terminal 100, recipe information provided by a manufacturer or raw material seller or user recipe information uploaded by other users who are permitted to share can be viewed or downloaded. The created user recipe information may be uploaded and stored in the server 200 or shared with other users.

The recipe information stored in the server 200 may be largely composed of basic recipe information and user recipe information. The basic recipe information refers to recipe information provided by a manufacturer of the beer manufacturing apparatus 10 or a seller who sells raw materials. For example, a manufacturer who manufactures the beer manufacturing apparatus 10 may provide information on recipe information that can most smoothly manufacture a craft beer in the beer manufacturing apparatus 10 or basic recipe information about a beer manufacturing method that consumers generally like. It can be stored in the server 200 so that consumers who have purchased their products can download and use them. In addition, a person who sells raw materials can mix all or part of the raw materials required for beer production at a certain ratio and package and sell them in a pack-type fermentation container 20, and basic recipe information for making craft beer using the raw materials. Can be stored in the server 200 so that anyone can download it.

The recipe information includes information on the operation of the beer manufacturing apparatus 10, such as fermentation temperature, fermentation time, aging temperature, aging time, and storage temperature, and information to be prepared for craft beer manufacturing such as malt, yeast, hops, and water. Can be included. The user purchases the raw materials packaged at a certain mixing ratio or prepares raw materials in the fermentation container 20 according to the raw material mixing ratio indicated in the recipe information and pours water of a predetermined volume, and then installs the fermentation container 20 into a beer manufacturing apparatus ( It is accommodated in the fermentation part 10s of 10). After that, when the user terminal 100 is connected to the beer brewing device 10 and transmits the recipe information transmitted from the server 200 to the beer brewing device 10 and presses the start button, the beer brewing device 10 It starts to make handmade beer while automatically operating according to the received recipe information.

On the other hand, user recipe information refers to recipe information that consumers know while making craft beer using their own methods and ingredients. Consumers may transmit and store their own raw materials and user recipe information to which their own fermentation conditions, aging and storage conditions, etc. are applied to the server 200. The handmade beer manufacturing apparatus 10 according to the present invention automatically stores the conditions (temperature, fermentation time, aging time, etc.) applied in the process of manufacturing the handmade beer by the consumer. After the fermentation process is over, the user connects to the craft beer making apparatus 10 using his user terminal 100, receives information applied during the fermentation process, and receives the information applied during the fermentation process. You can create your own user recipe by entering information about the amount and volume, water volume, and taste. Thus, the user recipe made in this way can be stored in the server 200, and the user recipe made in this way can be shared for free or sold for a fee according to the user's choice. Other users can view the recipe information of other users stored in the server 200 as described above, download the recipe information they want to make, and transmit it to their own beer brewing apparatus 10 for use.

On the other hand, the user may sell user recipes related to the manufacture of handmade beer made by the user to other users. However, buyers will often hesitate to purchase because they cannot know whether or not the craft beer is made normally or whether it is a taste they will like with the recipe information being sold. To this end, a user who uploads a user recipe for sale may encrypt all or part of his recipe and upload it to the server 200, and may share the encrypted recipe information for free by limiting the number of times of use. For example, if there is a characteristic of the fermentation conditions of the beer manufacturing apparatus 10 such as fermentation temperature or time in the recipe information to be sold, information outside the apparatus regarding the amount, type and mixing ratio of raw materials is opened, and fermentation temperature or time User recipe information in which the number of times of use is limited to 3 by encrypting information on the etc. may be uploaded to the server 200. Then, the other user once stores the fermentation vessel 20 in which the raw materials indicated in the user recipe are mixed in the fermentation unit 10s of the beer manufacturing apparatus 10, and then part or all of the information from the server 200 is encrypted. The information is downloaded and transmitted to the beer manufacturing apparatus 10, and then fermentation is started. The encrypted recipe information cannot be checked in the beer brewing device 10 or the user terminal 100, but the beer brewing device 10 operates normally for a limited number of times to produce a craft beer. And if the fermentation proceeds a predetermined number of times, it will no longer operate. The user can determine whether to purchase the recipe information by viewing the taste of the homemade beer that has been experimentally made as described above. If a user applies for purchase to the server 200 in order to purchase other user's recipe information, and when payment is made in the server 200, the encrypted information can be downloaded and used continuously. , Ingredients or fermentation conditions can be modified in the recipe information purchased through payment.

When the characteristic of the user recipe information is the amount or type of raw material, and the mixing ratio, information on the amount of the raw material, etc. may be made private, and information on fermentation conditions may be opened and stored in the server 200. In addition, raw materials can be mixed directly and sold to other users. The user may purchase raw materials made by other users, download recipe information from the server 200, and transmit it to his or her own beer brewing apparatus 10 to proceed with fermentation.

As such, a person who discovers or develops his own unique craft beer recipe may sell recipe information to other users or sell his own fermented ingredients. Through this process, expert-level users can obtain reputation or profit, and beginners can easily manufacture various craft beer while using various recipe information for free or for free, thus forming an ecosystem for craft beer production. Those who sell craft beer makers or originals can increase their desire to purchase and loyalty to their products.

A user who downloads or purchases basic recipe information or user recipe information for free from the server 200 may evaluate the recipe information after making a craft beer using the recipe information. In other words, when making a homemade beer using the purchased or downloaded recipe information, whether it is fermented normally and whether the taste of the homemade beer matches the information described, as well as adding your own opinion and evaluating it along with the rating. I can do it. The information evaluated by the users is displayed together with recipe information provided or sold by the server 200 to help other users to select a recipe.

The process of making a craft beer requires a lot of effort and time. Therefore, if the evaluation of other users is accumulated as described above, even a beginner can easily make a delicious handmade beer without trial and error.

On the other hand, a user may perform various tests while making a craft beer using basic recipe information or other user's user recipe information. For example, it is possible to prepare a beer that tastes to one's taste by variously modifying the mixing ratio of raw materials, fermentation temperature, fermentation time, aging temperature or time, etc., or to make a craft beer with own additives. As such, new recipe information (hereinafter referred to as'modified recipe information') created in the process of making various attempts may be re-uploaded to the server 200 and shared with other users. In the case where new revised recipe information is created by modifying or transforming the user recipe information of another person as described above, the original-recipe information may be displayed together with the revised recipe information. As described above, a user can use his/her own user terminal 100 to download another user's user recipe from the server 200 and then transmit the downloaded user recipe information to his/her own beer brewing apparatus 10 for use. However, if the user recipe information transmitted from the server 200 is modified or changed in this way, the beer brewing device 10 generates the modified recipe information separately from the original-recipe information. Display information together. In addition, when the user brings the modified recipe information to his or her user terminal 100 and uploads it to the server 200, the modified recipe information on which the original-recipe information is displayed is transmitted to the server 200. At this time, if the original-recipe information contains encrypted machine device information, and the encrypted machine device information among the original-recipe information and the corrected recipe information is within a preset error range, the corresponding information of the corrected recipe information is also encrypted. Let them be shared in a form.

As described above, the recipe information that can be encrypted includes mechanical device information on the temperature or fermentation time controlled by the beer fermentation device, and information on the amount or type and mixing ratio of raw materials that the user must directly manipulate. However, information on the mixing ratio of raw materials, etc., is not easily known until the purchaser separates all raw materials, checks the type and weighs, and it is often difficult to know accurate information even if such efforts are made. Moreover, it is difficult to arbitrarily control these external factors. However, information on the control of machinery can be immediately and easily known to consumers who purchase after making payment, and if the degree of correction in the modified recipe information is very insignificant and can be said to be the same as the one-recipe information, the one-recipe information For the protection of, encryption is forcibly performed as described above. In addition, when the sale or distribution of the modified recipe information is restricted, or when the modified recipe information is sold, a portion of the proceeds may be shared with the person who developed the original recipe information.

As described above, although specific embodiments have been described in the detailed description of the present invention, various modifications are possible without departing from the scope of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of the present invention is limited to the described embodiments and should not be defined, and should be defined by the claims and equivalents as well as the claims to be described later.
