What are vacuum tumblers?


You might be wondering that what Vacuum Tumblers are. Let’s learn what these are and what are these used for. Vacuum tumblers are a specific type of food processing machine that is known for its extraordinary quality of marinating meat with perfection and slicing it up with spices or making a perfect combination of brine with meat. This process is known as vacuum tumbling and will result in a saturated amalgam of the spices and brine into the meat. This could also be done at the ease of your home, as this is too easy to cope up with. So, this process is also called a domestic variant as well as performed on a bigger scale on a commercial-scale.

DIfferend sizes

Commercial vacuum tumblers might range differently with their sizes as some of them might come with a size of smaller tabletop units, used in test kitchens and small-scale restaurant applications; and can expand up to machines that vacuum tumble or massage loads of 5000 pounds or more at one time. This is superb as it will handle much of your loads at once and will relieve you from the stress of work. Vacuum tumbling has become a quite popular process for the meat processing industry nowadays. This process results in a very replenishing meat product that is demanded by both meat processors and consumers.

One more thing that is loved with the process of vacuum tumbling and more weight added to the processed meat as the finished meat products after getting processed from the tumbling process weigh more than the original nonvacuum tumbled products. This weight addition is due to the solution added in the form of a liquid that allows the product to remain moister even after the completion of the cooking process and will result in better taste and outer look. Consumers love it more than ever before as they will end up with more flavorful products without extra work done by them, or extra effort addition.

Vacuum tumbling process

This vacuum tumbling process comes with two types of tumbling machines. One is called a non-continuous processing machine and the other a continuous processing machine. The major difference lies in the way how the vacuum is applied while processing. In a non-continuous processing machine, the vacuum source is connected directly to the drum, and with the achievement of desired vacuum level inside the drum, the vacuum source is disconnected from the drum and the tumbling process starts immediately.

In comparison to this, the continuous processing machine uses a snorkel mounted inside the drum and connected to the vacuum source on the other side, to provide the required vacuum level inside the drum. The continuous processing variant comes with several benefits. Though the cost of these continuous models is higher, these possess control systems that allow the system to release vacuum pressure, with how much required, short rest times during tumbling of different mixtures, and then re-introduction of the vacuum pressure to the mixing process.
