The sugar filtration step and the first transfer step (S4), the opening and closing valve (V10, V11, V13, V14) is opened by the command of the control unit, while the first pump (P1) is operated, the first oil detection When oil is not detected by the sensor Cs1, the on / off valves V10, V11, V13, and V14 and the first pump P1 are closed and stopped.

When the transfer of the sugar cargo is completed, the wort production tank cleaning step (S4) for washing the inside of the wort production tank 10 contaminated by the saccharification step (S2) with water proceeds.

More specifically, the wort production tank cleaning step (S4), the opening and closing valves (V1, V2, V4) is opened by the command of the control unit, the stirring motor 12 is driven to manufacture the contaminated wort by the saccharification step (S2) Clean the inside of the tank (10).

After this process for a predetermined unit of time, the on-off valves (V1, V2, V4) is controlled to open and close, while setting the strength of the sprayed water is weaker at the same time the on-off valves (V14, V15) and screw motor 13 at the same time Opened and driven, foreign matters such as malt meal accommodated in the wort manufacturing tank 10 by the saccharification filtration step and the first transfer step S4 are opened and closed via the screw motor 13 (V15). Is discharged to the drain through, and when the predetermined unit time elapses, the on-off valves (V1, V2, V4) and the stirring motor 12 are closed and driven by the command of the controller. At this time, if the oil of the waste washing water is not detected through the first oil sensor Cs1, the driving stop of the screw motor 13 and the closing of the opening / closing valve V15 are made by a command of the controller, and then the centrifuge ( A second transfer step S8 of transferring the saccharin temporarily stored in 20) to the wort manufacturing tank 10 is performed.

In the second transfer step S8, the first pump P1 and the opening / closing valves V9, V11, V13, and V16 are operated and opened, and the oil of the sugars passing through the second oil sensor Cs2 is detected. If not, the first pump P1 and the valves V9, V11, V13, and V16 are stopped and closed at the same time, thereby transferring the sugars from the centrifuge 20 to the wort manufacturing tank 10. To complete the addition, a suitable amount of hop (HOP) is added to the saccharification proceeds to the boiling step of boiling for about a predetermined time and the boiling step (S10) (S10).

The hop addition and boiling step (S10), as described above, by continuously detecting the temperature of the saccharide added hops through the second temperature sensor Ts and sent to the controller, the controller In order to maintain a set temperature continuously, it has an operating principle of regulating opening and closing the opening / closing valve V31. More specifically, the heating unit 11 mounted on the outer circumference of the boiler 90 and the wort production tank 10 is connected to the tubular chain pipe so that steam can be circulated by the boiler 90. The heated steam flows into the heating unit 11 to exchange heat with the wort production tank 10, and then has a heating system that returns to the boiler 90. Thus, the opening and closing valve (V31) is mounted on the pipe side flowing into the heating unit 11 to adjust the inflow of steam by the command of the control unit, it is possible to easily maintain the set temperature.

When the hop addition and mercy step (S10) is completed, the third transfer step (S12) is carried out to transfer the wort containing the foreign matter such as hop foil to the centrifuge (20). This, in the above-described sugar filtration step and the first transfer step (S4), it has the same operation principle as the first transfer step for transferring the wort from the wort production tank 10 to the centrifuge 20 to be omitted. .

When the transfer of the wort containing the hop foil is completed, the centrifuge 20 is driven by the command of the controller, and relatively large ones such as foreign matters such as the hop foil are collected on the center of the centrifuge 20 by the centrifugal force. , Pure wort is rotated in the outermost part of the centrifuge (20). At this time, the first pump P1 is operated by the command of the controller, and the on / off valves V12, V16, V21-1, or V21-n are opened so that the filtered wort passes through the cooler 40 at a high temperature. The wort in the state drops in temperature, and the on-off valve V18 continuously performs intermittent opening and closing to blow air into the wort, and the wort passes through the yeast containing the yeast and the predetermined fermentation / maturation tank 62 The wort filtration step and the fourth transfer step (S14) to be transferred to the interior is in progress. Therefore, air and yeast are added to the filtered wort and transferred to and stored in the fermentation / maturation tank 62.
