The invention discloses a method for producing table vinegar by adopting a two-step
acetic acid fermentation method and belongs to the technical field of
brewing of the table vinegar. According to the method, the problems of low
alcohol intolerance, long
fermentation period and low acetification rate for
acetic acid fermentation in a traditional method are solved. The method comprises the following steps of: uniformly stirring
sorghum flour,
corn flour, rice
meal and water; adding thermostable
alpha amylase for liquefying; after liquefying, reducing the temperature, adding Daqu, saccharifyingkoji, red
starter,
saccharomyces cerevisiae and
aroma-producing
yeast and carrying out alcoholic fermentation to obtain liquor; adopting the two-step
acetic acid fermentation method: firstly, mixing the liquor; adding
acetic acid bacteria subjected to liquid amplification culture for carrying out primary acetic acid fermentation; when the alcoholic strength of
brewing mass is reduced to 6-5DEG C,adding wheat
bran and rice
husk as accessories for mixing; inoculating fire fermented liquor for carrying out secondary acetic acid fermentation; sealing the liquor; smoking the liquor; spraying vinegar; filtering; and packaging to obtain a finished product. According to the method disclosed by the invention, the high-content
alcohol can be effectively converted; the acid yield and the acetification rate in unit time are improved; and the
flavor of the table vinegar produced by adopting a traditional
solid acetic acid fermentation method is ensured.
