YACUB B., BASHIR et al. PROTOTYPE FERMENTER DESIGN SEMI AUTOMATIC MILK FOR THE PREPARATION OF SUERO COSTEÑO. Rev.Bio.Agro [online]. 2016, vol.14, n.1, pp.95-102. ISSN 1692-3561.  https://doi.org/10.18684/BSAA(14)95-102.

Suero Costeño is handmade in fermented dairy product Colombian Atlantic Coast. To meet the health standards, the fermenter was constructed by a tank designed and manufactured in 304 stainless steel, with a net volume of 30 L. Should ensure a temperature below 35°C in the fermentation of milk, implementing a cooling system using a shirt or jacket. The temperature is measured with a temperature sensor, type PT-100, with the microcontroller system is programmed its set point, valve also has to separate the serum spigot, and measuring the pH of the serum variable is performed with a pH meter, which measures consistently. The amount of raw material is measured by a level sensor and displayed continuously on the LCD control panel.

Keywords : pH; Level sensor; Temperature sensor; Microcontroller.
