FlashPasto - Short-term heating
FlashPasto is a short-time heating system for gentle pasteurization . The goal is to pasteurize the product without adversely affecting its color, taste, or digestibility. For optimal results, pasteurization time , temperature , and pressure are individually adjusted – depending on the product, packaging type, and expected shelf life.
Application
- Beer
- Beer-based mixed drinks
Flash pasteurization is a proven and cost-effective process in the brewing industry .
What is Flashpasto made for?
Short-term heating kills harmful microorganisms and thus increases:
- microbiological stability
- Lifespan / Durability
This is how the system works in the process
FlashPasto is designed for stable operation even with variable product flow – especially when installed directly in front of the filler .
Key points:
- Consistent pasteurization quality through highly accurate process control
- Two-stage heating to increase energy efficiency :
– Step 1: Preheating in the heat recovery section ( counterflow to the hot, already pasteurized product)
– Step 2: Gently reaching the pasteurization temperature via the heating medium (e.g. hot water, heated by steam)
- Optional buffer tank (on request) to compensate for fluctuations in the amount of product taken in by the filler.
- CIP cleaning is possible both together with the main line and separately.
Highlights
- Consistent pasteurization quality through highly precise process control
- Buffer tank available for installation in front of the filler upon request.
- Customized modular design with standard PLC
- Frame-mounted for easy installation and commissioning
- Hygienic design and full CIP capability
