Detailed Explanation of Tea Machine Usage and Key Operating Points

Growing Techniques 0 views
In the mechanized processing of famous and high-quality tea, from the fixation of fresh leaves to the finished product, two relationships must be handled well: first, the relationship between heat and water vapor; second, the relationship between mechanical force and appearance. Heat causes biochemical changes in the tea leaves, while force applies external force to the tea leaves to cause changes in appearance. In specific use, attention should be paid to: 1. Before operation, each machine should be trial-run, and it should be observed whether the temperature and other technical parameters can meet the process requirements for famous and high-quality tea, such as the fixation time of fresh leaves, which is generally 1' to 1'10" for spring tea, 50" to 1' for summer tea, and for Maofeng tea, the drying

2. Before tea processing in each shift, start after all machines have reached normal temperature. During processing, handle well the interrelationship among temperature, time, leaf input amount, and fresh leaf quality technical factors, and make tea according to the condition of the tea leaves.

3. At the end of operation, for machines using a firewood and coal structure, let the remaining fire burn out completely, and shut down when the temperature of the main components drops to 40-50°C. At the end of the tea season, remove the furnace ash, clean the machinery, add lubricating oil, and cover it with a cover for use in processing the following year.
