Integrated Equipment Solution for Industrial Broad Bean Paste & Fermented Sauce Production
LENO TANK provides a complete, hygienic, and scalable equipment suite for the industrial-scale manufacturing of traditional fermented sauces, such as Broad Bean Paste (Doubanjiang), soybean paste, and chili sauces. Our integrated systems modernize artisanal processes, guaranteeing consistent product quality, enhanced food safety, and efficient batch processing from raw material handling to final packaging.
Core Production Stages & LENO TANK Equipment Integration:
| Production Stage | Process Requirement | Recommended LENO TANK Equipment | Key Value & Advantage |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1. Washing & Soaking | Cleaning and hydrating raw materials like broad beans and chilies. | Sanitary Centrifugal Pumps, Basket Filters | Efficient transfer of wash water and removal of impurities. Hygienic design enables easy cleaning and prevents cross-contamination. |
| 2. Cooking & Cooling | Steam-cooking soaked materials and rapidly cooling them to fermentation temperature. | Tube Heat Exchangers, Jacketed Tanks | Tube heat exchangers provide rapid, uniform pasteurization and cooling. Jacketed tanks offer precise heating/cooling control. |
| 3. Koji Making & Fermentation | Inoculation with Aspergillus oryzae and controlled solid-state or liquid fermentation. | Self-Priming Fermenters, Temperature-Controlled Fermenters, CIP Systems | Self-Priming Fermenters offer aeration without an external compressor for liquid fermentation. Stainless Steel Fermenters ensure a stable, pure-culture environment. CIP Systems guarantee thorough cleaning between batches. |
| 4. Grinding & Blending | Grinding the fermented mash and homogenizing it with brine and seasonings. | High-Shear Mixers, Colloid Mills, Powder Induction Pumps | High-Shear Mixers/Colloid Mills create a smooth, fine texture. Powder Induction Pumps allow for dust-free, sterile addition of salt and powdered spices. |
| 5. Ripening & Pasteurization | Aging the blended paste and applying pasteurization for product stabilization. | Pasteurizers, Jacketed Storage/Bright Tanks | Pasteurizers ensure precise temperature control for microbial stability while preserving flavor. Insulated Storage Tanks provide an ideal environment for controlled aging. |
| 6. Filling & Packaging | Transferring the finished product into bottles, pouches, or cans. | Mobile CIP Carts, Sanitary Transfer Pumps | Mobile CIP Carts allow flexible cleaning of filling lines. Sanitary Pumps ensure contamination-free transfer to the filler. |
