Then one performs cooling in the second and the first baths filled with 100°C and 80°C water during 5 and 5 minutes, respectively, and continuation of cooling in the fourth and the fifth baths filled with 60°C and 40°C water during 5 and 5 minutes. During the heat treatment process the jar is subjected to interrupted 2-3-minutes' turning upside down with a frequency equal to 0.133 sec^-1 with a 2-3 minutes' interval.

EFFECT: invention ensures heat energy and water saving, the process duration reduction and the ready product quality enhancement.

Description

The present invention relates to the canning industry, and in particular to methods for the production of stewed apricots in cans SKO 1-82-500.

Sources, which were searched by this method, showed that the prototype of the proposed method is a method for the production of canned "Apricot compote" with sterilization in an autoclave [1] according to the regime

where 20 is the duration of the period of heating water to 100 ° C, min;

15 - the length of the period of its own sterilization at 100 ° C, min;

20 - the duration of the cooling period, min;

100 ° C - sterilization temperature, ° C;

98 - back pressure in the autoclave, kPa.

The 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: reducing the duration of the process; preservation of the natural components of the raw materials used; reducing the number of cracked and boiled fruits; increase the nutritional and biological value of the product; improving the structural and mechanical characteristics of the finished product; saving heat energy and water, as well as increasing the competitiveness of finished products.

The specified technical result is achieved due to the fact that the fruits packaged in cans are filled with hot water at a temperature of 80 ° C for 2-3 minutes, then this water is replaced with syrup at a temperature of 95 ° C, the cans are rolled up, installed in a carrier that provides mechanical tightness of the cans, and subjected to preliminary heating in the first bath with water at a temperature of 80 ° C for 5 min, followed by transfer to a second bath with water at a temperature of 100 ° C for 5 min and into a third bath with a solution of calcium chloride at a temperature of 120 ° C for 8 min followed by Oh by cooling in the second and first baths with water at temperatures of 100 ° C and 80 ° C for 5 and 5 minutes, respectively, and continued cooling in the fourth and fifth baths with water at temperatures of 60 ° C and 40 ° C for 5 and 5 minutes, respectively this heat treatment process in the bank is subjected to intermittent 2-3 minutes with rotation at bedplate cover a frequency of 0.133 s ^-1 at intervals of 2-3 minutes.

An example implementation of the method.

Before pouring syrup for 2-3 minutes, pour hot water at a temperature of 80 ° C into jars with laid fruits, then replace this water with syrup at a temperature of 95 ° C, roll the jars, install them in a carrier that provides mechanical tightness (preventing the caps from breaking during the heat processing), and placed in a bath with hot water at a temperature of 80 ° C for 5 minutes After 5 minutes, the carrier with the jars is transferred to a bath with water at a temperature of 100 ° C for 5 minutes, then to a bath with a solution of calcium chloride at a temperature of 120 ° C for 8 minutes. After this time, the cans are cooled in the same baths: in the second one at a water temperature of 100 ° C for 5 minutes, in the first bath at a water temperature of 80 ° C for 5 minutes, in which the next batch of cans is simultaneously heated, with further cooling in the fourth and fifth baths with water at temperatures of 60 ° C and 40 ° C for 5 and 5 minutes, respectively, while during the heat treatment the jar is subjected to intermittent 2-3 minutes rotation from the bottom to the lid with a frequency of 0.133 s ^-1 s 2-3 min interval

The use of stepwise cooling of compote in the same bathtubs where heating is 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 of heat treatment, canned food is used 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 two baths.

The use of intermittent rotation of the cans during the heat treatment contributes to the intensification of the process of internal heat transfer in the can and in combination with the periodic holding of the cans in a static state reduces the duration of the process of mechanical wiping of the fruits between themselves and the walls of the cans while ensuring uniformity of the heat treatment, which helps to maintain their integrity that provides an improvement in the structural and mechanical properties of the finished product.

Pre-heating the fruits in jars with hot water provides an increase in the initial temperature of the fruits before sterilization, the possibility of pouring syrup with a higher temperature into the jars than is provided for in the technological instruction, as well as partial removal of air from the fruits, which also improves the quality of the finished product.

Salient features of the proposed method are: pre-heating the fruits in jars with hot water; three-stage heating of compote in water at temperatures of 80 ° C, 100 ° C, and a solution of calcium chloride at a temperature of 120 ° C, respectively, 5, 5 and 8 min, followed by four-stage cooling for 5, 5, 5 and 5 min, and the heating processes and cooling cans, but the last two stages of heating and cooling steps are carried out simultaneously in the same bath, and intermittent 2-3 minutes rotation of cans with bottoms on the lid frequency of 0.133 s ^-1 at intervals of 2-3 min for process heat processing.

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