CHERRY COMPOTE STERILISATION METHOD Russian patent published in 2012 - IPC A23L3/04 

FIELD: food industry.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to food industry. Jars filled with compote are put into the carrier providing for their air-tightness. Then the jars are heated in 70°C water during 5 minutes with their subsequent transfer into 85°C water for 25-30 minutes. Then one performs the jars cooling in 18-20°C air flow at a rate of 3-4 m/s during 5 minutes with further continuation of cooling in an air flow with application of a 65-70°C water film on the jar surface during 8 minutes. During the heat treatment process the jars are turned upside down with a frequency equal to 0.133 s^-1.

EFFECT: invention allows to reduce thermal treatment duration and decrease treatment non-uniformity.
