RU2492729C1 - Sweet cherry compote sterilisation method - Google Patents

Abstract

FIELD: food industry.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to preservation industry, in particular, to methods for sterilisation of sweet cherry compote in jars SKO 1-82-1000. The method involves three-stage heating of sweet cherry compote in 60, 80 and 100°C water for 6, 6 and 20 minutes respectively with subsequent three-stage cooling during 6, 6 and 10 minutes. Heating and cooling are performed at a water temperature equal to 60 and 80°C in the same baths.

EFFECT: method ensures the process duration reduction, preservation of biologically active components and boiled and cracked fruits quantity reduction.

Description

The proposed method for the invention relates to the canning industry, and in particular to methods for sterilizing sweet compote in cans SKO 1-82-1000.

Sources, which were searched by this method, showed that the prototype of the proposed method is a method of sterilizing canned food "Compote of cherries" in an autoclave [1] according to the mode

$$\frac{25-(\mathrm{thirty}-35)-25}{{\mathrm{one\; hundred}}^{\circ }\mathrm{FROM}}\cdot 118\text{kPa}$$

25 - the duration of the period of heating water to 100 ° C, min;

(30-35) - the length of the period of its own sterilization at 100 ° C, min;

25 - the duration of the cooling period, min;

100 ° C - sterilization temperature, ° C;

118 - back pressure in the autoclave, kPa.

The main disadvantages of this method are:

- long duration of the process of heat treatment of the product;

- uneven heat treatment of the product in banks;

- high consumption of thermal energy and water

The technical result of the invention is aimed at creating a method for the production of compote, contributing to a reduction in the duration of the process; preservation of biologically active components of the raw materials used; reducing the number of boiled fruits and fruits with cracked skin; simplifying the process of implementing the method and design of the apparatus for its implementation, saving heat energy and water, as well as reducing costs and increasing the competitiveness of finished products.

The specified technical result is achieved due to the fact that the cans after seaming are installed in a special carrier that provides mechanical tightness of the cans and are preheated in the first bath with water at a temperature of 60 ° C for 6 minutes, followed by transfer to the second and third baths with water, respectively 80 ° C for 6 min and 100 ° C for 20 min, followed by cooling in the second and first baths with water at 80 and 60 ° C for 6 and 6 min, respectively, and continued cooling in the fourth Anne at a water temperature of 40 ° C for 10 min.

An example implementation of the method.

After sealing, the cans with compote are installed in a carrier that provides mechanical tightness (preventing caps from tearing off during the heat treatment), and placed in a 60 ° C hot water bath for 6 minutes. After 6 minutes, the carrier with the cans is transferred to a bath of water at a temperature of 80 ° C for 6 minutes, then to a bath of water at a temperature of 100 ° C for 20 minutes. After this time, the cans are cooled in the same baths: in the second bath at a water temperature of 80 ° C for 6 minutes and in the first bath for 6 min at a water temperature of 60 ° C, in which the next batch of cans is simultaneously heated, with further continued cooling in the fourth bath at a water temperature of 40 ° C for 10 minutes

The use of stepwise cooling of compote in the same bathtubs where heating is also carried out, helps to simplify the heat treatment process and the design of the sterilization apparatus, provides significant savings in heat energy and water, since with this design heat treatment is used to heat canned food in the first and second baths the heat given off by banks cooled in the same baths that have already undergone heat treatment. And water for cooling is consumed only in the last bath.

The salient features of the proposed method are: three-stage heating of the compote in water at temperatures of 60, 80 and 100 ° C, respectively, 6, 6 and 20 minutes, followed by three-stage cooling for 6, 6, and 10 minutes, and the can heating and cooling processes, except The last stages of heating and cooling are carried out simultaneously in the same bathtubs.

This mode provides significant savings of thermal energy, water, reducing the duration of the process and thereby improving the quality of the finished product.
