Innovation for sustainable food production

At Steritech, we place innovation and sustainability at the heart of our solutions. Following the success of our Goût’stave autoclave range, we are proud to present the mini Goût’stave: a compact autoclave for artisan canneries.

Designed for artisanal processing plants, canneries and R&D laboratories, the mini Goût’stave offers all the performance of our industrial models in a reduced format. It combines reliability, energy efficiency and ease of installation, while meeting the quality requirements of food production.

A compact autoclave with no compromise on performance

The mini Goût’stave incorporates the technical qualities for which the range is renowned: robustness, food safety and heat treatment homogeneity.

  • Optimized dimensions: Ø 700 mm, perfect for small spaces;
  • Suitable capacity: up to 140 4/4 cans (850 mL) or 320 Twist-Off jars (230 mL) ;
  • Homogeneous water spraying process guarantees uniform sterilization.

Thanks to its 100% electric heating system, it operates without a boiler, reducing installation and maintenance costs. This food autoclave simply connects to water, compressed air and electricity.

It’s the ideal solution for companies wishing to benefit from a compact professional autoclave without heavy industrial investment.

The electric autoclave at the heart of decarbonization

The mini Goût’stave is fully in line with the dynamic of decarbonization in the food industry. Designed to run entirely on electricity, it enables :

  • reduce CO₂ emissions;
  • eliminate dependence on fossil fuels;
  • anticipate future environmental regulations.

By adopting a decarbonated autoclave, artisanal canneries are investing in a sustainable, economical and responsible technology. This approach meets the challenges of today’s energy transition, while guaranteeing product quality and safety.

State-of-the-art sterilization technology

The mini Goût’stave benefits from all the know-how of the Goût’stave autoclave range. It is controlled by our Trilogy software, developed to ensure precise control of sterilization and pasteurization cycles.

  • Fully automated cycles (temperature, pressure, cooling);
  • Real-time monitoring via intuitive touch screen;
  • Full traceability: automatic registration of each batch;
  • Remote connection for assistance, diagnostics and maintenance.

Thanks to this level of precision, each product benefits from a homogeneous heat treatment, guaranteeing microbiological safety and the preservation of organoleptic qualities.

The Goût’stave mini autoclave is therefore a reliable sterilization tool, suitable for both small-scale production and R&D development tests.

An economical and sustainable solution with WatterloW

With energy efficiency in mind, the mini Goût’stave can be fitted with WatterloW, our innovative water and energy recovery system.

This ingenious device makes it possible to :

  • reuse hot water from the previous cycle;
  • accelerate temperature rise ;
  • reduce water and electricity consumption;
  • improve overall sterilizer performance.

The result? Shorter cycle times, substantial energy savings and a reduced environmental footprint – all while maintaining optimum thermal performance.

Designed for artisanal canneries and processing plants

The mini Goût’stave demonstrates that a compact, mobile autoclave can combine performance, energy efficiency and simplicity. It is aimed at all those involved in artisanal canning and sustainable food production who want to modernize their sterilization processes while reducing their carbon footprint.

This compact autoclave offers :

  • quick start-up without complex installation ;
  • ergonomic and safe handling ;
  • easy adaptation to different production sizes ;
  • consistent, reproducible sterilization quality.

It’s also an ideal tool for pilot testing, formulating new products or validating sterilization schedules. This makes the mini Goût’stave a genuine development partner for small-scale food businesses.

French manufacturing, a guarantee of quality and durability

Designed and assembled in our workshops in Alsace, the mini Goût’stave embodies French industrial know-how:

  • stainless steel bowl, basket and cart ;
  • reinforced insulation to limit heat loss;
  • ergonomics designed for ease of use ;
  • easy maintenance and long service life.

Each autoclave is rigorously tested before shipment to ensure stable, long-lasting performance right from the start.
