TASTE Evaporator

Product catalog summary
Overview: The JBT T.A.S.T.E. Evaporator is designed for processing heat-sensitive products, particularly citrus juice concentrate and other clear fruit juices. It offers efficient pasteurization and stabilization, minimizing heat application time to preserve product quality.
Manufacturing and Assembly: The evaporator is assembled and tested horizontally at the factory and installed vertically at the customer's site. It is made from 304 or 316 stainless steel, depending on product requirements, ensuring precise assembly by skilled workers.
Key Features: The evaporator can achieve a concentration of up to 65/75 Brix with a total cycle time of approximately 2 minutes and 30 seconds. It operates efficiently at 50% capacity and features simplified controls and special transfer pumps for flexibility.
Advantages: The T.A.S.T.E. Evaporator offers high-quality output, low operating costs, mechanical reliability, a small footprint, and automatic operation. An optional essence recovery system can be integrated for additional benefits.
Cleaning and Maintenance: A Cleaning in Place (CIP) system is incorporated, allowing for high sanitation standards with a cleaning time of 30-45 minutes. The system can be engaged without altering normal operations.
Essence Recovery System: This optional feature recovers essences from vapors before condensation, collecting aromas in a decant tank. It can be ordered with the machine or retrofitted to existing units.
Special Applications: The Multi-Purpose T.A.S.T.E. Evaporator (MPTE) is suitable for tomato paste production, offering advantages like high evaporation rates and reduced cleaning frequency. For apple juice, a hot depectinization design is used to obtain clear juice.
Specifications: The evaporator is available in various sizes based on water evaporation rates per hour, with models ranging from 4 to 6 effects. Dimensions and processing capacities may vary.
Contact Information: JBT provides contact details for their offices in North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America, South America, and South Africa.
Additional Services: JBT offers PRoCARE® services for maintenance, helping to prevent unexpected costs through expert maintenance agreements tailored to production and cost management needs.

TASTE Evaporator-2

Manufacturing and assembly The evaporator is fully assembled and tested in our factory in a horizontal position and is lifted into vertical position at customer’s site. Installation time is short with only utility connections necessary if foundations have been prepared in advance. 304 or 316 stainless steel is used depending on the different product requirements. Skilled workers, specializing in stainless steel manufacturing, make it possible to achieve a very precise assembly.

For citrus juice concentrate and other clear fruit juices The JBT T.A.S.T.E. evaporator (Thermally Accelerated Short Time Evaporator) provides pasteurization and stabilization of juice during the pre-heating cycle and after the first evaporation stage. Juice is introduced as a turbulent fog in the tube nest.. As a fog, the juice reaches an acceleration speed of ~700 km per hour (435 mph) in the tubes. The JBT T.A.S.T.E. evaporator eliminates recycling of the juice during concentration, thereby minimizing the length of time at which heat is applied to the juice and resulting in better end-product...

Special applications In order to meet specific customer requirements, a special finishing stage can be added to a normal T.A.S.T.E.. This Multi Purpose T.A.S.T.E. Evaporator (MPTE) is particularly suited for tomato paste producers. Compared with the traditional tomato paste evaporators, the MPTE has these advantages: • evaporation rate up to 1:3.3 • total residence time: 45 minutes • high tomato paste concentration, both • in hot and cold break • easy change-over from fruit juice to • tomato processing • reduced cleaning frequency Apple clear concentrate For apple juice, a special “hot depectinization”...
