Brine chiller for meat and seafood injection
Achieve consistent brine injection by stabilizing temperature fluctuations, ensuring optimal meat and seafood flavor enhancement while maximizing yield and shelf life.
The GEA SuperChill brine chiller is a vital component in ensuring consistent and optimal brine injection for meat and seafood processing. By cooling liquids to a precise temperature range of 2°C to 4°C, it effectively stabilizes brine temperature, improving brine absorption, reducing post-injection purge, and enhancing product yield. Specifically designed for continuous and stand-alone operations, the GEA SuperChill integrates seamlessly into existing production lines, compatible with both GEA and non-GEA systems. It features a hygienic design for easy cleaning and maintenance, and promotes long-term consistency in brine delivery, making it indispensable for food processors and meat, poultry, and seafood manufacturers aiming to meet high production standards and minimize product giveaway.
Benefits
- Enhances product yield and quality by optimizing brine absorption and minimizing injection variability.
