The price is for the basic version of the installation without a steam generator

The Veggie Milk kettle is used as a unit for hydrodynamic thermal extraction of substances from legumes and nuts to create a finished suspension - the basis of plant-based drinks.

  • Efficient and fast extraction
  • Partial pasteurization due to direct steam injection
  • High-powered bottom homogenizer
  • Hydrodynamic mixing
  • Mechanical shaft seal for the homogenizer with an open cooling system
  • Safety grid on the hatch cover for safe product loading
  • Sectional plexiglass hatch for visual inspection

The Veggie Milk plant is used not only for industrial applications in the plant-based beverage industry, but it is also an integral part of the soybean processing process to produce tofu or other similar vegan products.

The plant milk homogenizer is suitable for the production of plant bases for drinks such as:

  • soy milk
  • almond milk
  • oat milk
  • rice milk
  • cashew milk
  • sunflower seed milk
  • coconut milk
  • pecan milk

You can get a plant base from almost any nuts, grains or seeds.

Advantages:

  • High efficiency and productivity, up to 100 liters of the base with a particle size of up to 100 microns is produced in just one cycle, the time of the cycle depends on the product, for soybeans - 5-10 minutes.
  • A high degree of homogenization is achieved by the combined influence of the following factors: mechanical grinding and crushing, multi-level cutting, geometric linear speed acceleration, change in pulsating voltage, cavitation, ultrasound.
  • Efficient Heating: Direct steam injection into the product is the most economical and intensive heating method with minimal inertia.
  • An additional factor that increases the cost-effectiveness and efficiency of plant milk production using a plant milk homogenizer is the effect of converting the mechanical energy of the homogenizer into thermal energy, which allows for faster heating and saving on steam.
  • Veggie milk has a hygienic design that is easy to clean. There are no dead zones where product can accumulate. The installation has a self-cleaning system: cleaning is carried out by circulating the cleaning agent and water throughout the homogenizer along the path of the product.
  • A cooling system for the mechanical shaft seal, which protects the operation of the unit during dry running or when the volume of processed product is small.
  • Thermal insulation for the working tank to reduce heat loss and ensure safe equipment operation during its use.

Processes:

  • heating due to direct steam injection into the product*
  • dispersion
  • hydrodynamic mixing
  • homogenization
  •  emulsification
  • mixing

* Steam generator - option

Basic version

The Soy Cow or Veggie Milk unit comprises an atmospheric reactor mounted on a supporting structure and a homogenizer with a  electric drive suspended at the bottom. It includes an extended stainless steel electric motor shaft, a mechanical seal, a perforated protective housing for the external rotary units of the homogenizer, an external circulation circuit, a direct steam supply system, and a sectional opening top cover. The unit is equipped with a frequency converter and an analog thermometer for measuring product temperature. 

Operating principle

The homogenizer grinds the product in a humid environment with the external circulation circuit turned on. Purified steam is introduced into the lower part of the apparatus through a specialized bubbling system, facilitating intense heat transfer, hydrodynamic stirring, mixing, and absorption. Direct injection of purified steam into the product allows you to significantly intensify the heating process with minimal energy losses, which also partially pasteurizes the product.

Options:

  • Bottom decorative stainless steel housing
  • Height-adjustable legs
  • Support structure on wheels with locks (brakes)
  • Changing the electric motor power within the size category of 132
  • Time relay
  • Water meter
  • Steam control system
  • Control with PLC controller
  • Steam generator (control and safety fittings are not included in the basic delivery package)

Additional equipment:

  • Vacuum coater for water saturation and soaking beans, grains and nuts
