摘要

Equipment for determining the optimum cooking point and degree of heterogeneity of samples of legumes. Based on a cooking receptacle 3 with its corresponding heater 4, within which a platform 1 is set up provided with depressions for the unitary location of the vegetable grains to be analysed, with needles 2 resting on these respective grains, vertically guided by a support 7 and suitably calibrated, each of them being assisted by a movement sensor 8, which informs a microprocessor 10 of the critical moment at which the optimum level of cooking of the corresponding vegetable grain has been reached, so that the said microprocessor 10 receives information from each and every one of the sample grains, and based on this information and with a suitable program, the optimum point of cooking of the sample as a whole is established as well as its degree of heterogeneity.
