Description

SORGO dry-aging technology keeps temperature, humidity and airflow consistently within the optimal range. The meat ages evenly over several weeks, develops a tender texture and keeps an attractive appearance for sale. Applications include dry-aged beef, aging on the bone and premium cuts in commercial and industrial operations; a reference installation is the dry-aging system at SPAR in Graz.

Ripening principle

Temperature is matched to the ripening process, humidity gives uniform conditions in the room, and targeted air distribution reaches the whole load. Controlled climate supports a high yield and a premium appearance, and the SORGO control documents the process.

Controlled airflow

Return air, conditioned supply air, shaped nozzles and a continuously controlled reversing damper work together to keep temperature, humidity and air velocity uniform across all product carriers. The climate concept comprises exhaust, suction, fresh-air and pressure ducts, the reversing damper and the climate conditioning unit.

Heating and cooling

  • Heating: electric, steam or hot water.
  • Cooling: direct expansion, glycol, brine or ammonia.

An interactive airflow simulation on the SORGO website shows the air paths and flow reversal.

Control

The system is operated with the SORGO SCS X1 control on a 15.6-inch industrial touchscreen with storable programmes and precise process control. SORGO INSPECT adds central process documentation, and remote operation from a smartphone or tablet is optional.
