PEAR AND QUINCE COMPOTE STERILISATION METHOD Russian patent published in 2014 - IPC A23L3/04 

FIELD: food industry.

SUBSTANCE: invention is related to preservation industry. The method for sterilisation of pear and quince compote in jars SKO 1-82-500 envisages jars heating in an air flow at 130°C at a rate of 6 - 7 m/s during 18 minutes with subsequent maintenance during 20-25 minutes at heated air temperature equal to 92-95°C. Jars cooling is performed in an atmospheric air flow at 25-28°C at a rate of 7-8 m/s during 15 minutes. In the process of heating and cooling the jar is turned upside down with a frequency equal to 0.166 s^-1, maintenance is performed in a static state of the jars.

EFFECT: proposed method ensures significant saving of thermal energy and water as well as the ready product quality enhancement due to heating and rotation duration reduction and heat treatment uniformity ensured.
