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

FIELD: food industry.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to preservation industry and may be used during preservation of compotes in jars SKO 1-82-1000. The method is as follows: after packing fruits into jars one performs the fruits pouring with 80°C water for 2-3 minutes, proceeds with replacing the water with a 95-97°C syrup. The jars are sealed, put into the carrier ensuring mechanical air-tightness and undergo thermal sterilisation by way of showering with 80°C water during 6 minutes and with 100°C water during 18 minutes with subsequent cooling by way of spraying with 80°C water during 6 minutes, with 60°C water during 6 minutes and with 40°C water during 6 minutes; during the whole process of heat treatment the jars are turned upside down with a frequency equal to 0.166 s-¹.

EFFECT: invention allows to ensure prevention of thermal breakage of jars, heat treatment uniformity and sterilisation process simplification.
