What to know to make coke-type carbonated soft drink

What to consider before setting up a carbonated beverage palnt and how to make it conveyor desired paybacks to the enterprise? 

Here comark machinery introduce the production process.

1. Molten sugar (carbonated beverage production line)

If solid sugar is used in the production process, you need to use a sugar-melting pot to melt the solid sugar. Before adding water to the sugar-melting pot, make sure that the valve at the bottom of the sugar-melting pot and the valve of the sampling port are closed. The water temperature of the molten sugar should be greater than 85℃ , Record the completion time of adding water, lift the white granulated sugar to the inlet of the sugar pot, pour the bagged granulated sugar from the funnel, and observe the color of the sugar, whether it is damp, whether it has deteriorated, etc. during the sugar pouring process.

2. Mixing tank

The general structure of the mixing tank includes a tank body, agitating paddle, a feed port, and a discharge valve. For convenience and sanitation, it is generally made of stainless steel. During the mixing process, when a certain amount of sugar liquid is added to the mixing tank, it is continuously stirred Next, add all the pre-configured raw and auxiliary materials in sequence, stir evenly, and make a blended syrup. When using the blending tank, different processes use different recipes and processes, but they are roughly the same. The order of addition is generally as follows:

Original syrup → 25% sodium benzoate → 50% syrup solution → acid solution → fruit juice → flavor → coloring → turbidity agent → add water to the specified volume

3. Double filtration (carbonated beverage production line)

Impurities will appear in the white sugar and the formula materials for the carbonated beverages. All the raw syrup and the prepared materials must be filtered. If not filtered, the finished carbonated beverage will precipitate and affect the quality of the final carbon beverage. Filtration is an indispensable part of the carbonated beverage production line.

4. Carbonation and carbon dioxide mixer

The effect of water absorbing carbon dioxide is generally called the saturation of carbon dioxide. The process of mixing water and carbon dioxide is generally called the process of carbonation. Generally, food-grade carbon dioxide is used for carbon dioxide. The carbon dioxide is contained in a cylinder. When the carbon dioxide cylinder is opened, the carbon dioxide is And volatilize into gas, it must be fed into the mixer at a pressure reducing station. The most common pressure reducing station is just a pressure reducing valve. When carbon dioxide passes through the pressure reducing valve, it is easy to frost or freeze. Generally, a gas heating device or a gas heater is installed at the pressure reducing valve. Use running water to cool the cylinder. The carbonation process requires attention: Maintain a reasonable carbonation level, maintain a certain pressure in the canning machine, reduce air mixing, and ensure that there are no impurities in the water.

The carbon dioxide mixer is the key equipment of the carbonated beverage production line. Its function is to fully mix and dissolve water and carbon dioxide under certain technological conditions, which is called carbonated beverages. The working principle is to spray water into a container with a certain amount of carbon dioxide. Low water temperature can dissolve part of the carbon dioxide. The amount of dissolution has a lot to do with temperature and pressure.
