[0030] Embodiment 1: 100L brewing evaluation of German SpalterSelect90 type granular hops

[0031] The method used to evaluate the brewing performance (bitterness and aroma) of German SpalterSelect90 granular hops in Lager beer brewing:

[0032] (1) All light-colored malt saccharification process: use 100% light-colored malt Copland brewed with a store value of 42 and malt with a chroma of 5.2EBC; the hardness of the brewing water is 7 German degrees; the saccharification curve: brewing malt and brewing water according to 1: The ratio of 3.5 was fed at 55°C and kept at a constant temperature for 20 minutes; then the temperature was raised to 65°C at a rate of 1.0°C / min, and the temperature was kept at a constant temperature for 60 minutes; then the temperature was raised to 70°C at a rate of 1.5°C / min, and filtered; the filtered residual sugar was controlled at 2.2;

Abstract

The invention provides a method for evaluating hop brewing characteristics, which is applicable to China's light-flavor Lager beer, wherein the method comprises the following steps: a process of saccharifying full-pale malt, a process of adding single-variety hops twice after boiling, a process of fermenting with Lager yeast at low temperature and a process of evaluating hop aroma and bitterness of a finished wine product from sensory perception, so as to distinguish the brewing characteristics of different varieties or different batches of same variety. The method disclosed by the invention, by adopting parameters of key processes, namely saccharifying and brewing, and by virtue of following Lager yeast TT21 fermentation process, can guarantee accurate evaluation on the characteristic change of hops differing in aroma in the brewing of Lager beer and can reduce interference of beer's malt fragrance, alcohol ester, astringent substances in beer's spent grains and the like to the hop evaluation, so as to accurately predict the specific performance of the hops differing in aroma in the brewing of pale Lager beer. In addition, the specific parameters of the invention are set in accordance with domestic Lager beer; therefore, the method has a practical guiding significance for hop aroma and bitterness characteristics of hops in the large-scale production of domestic Lager beer.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of beer brewing, in particular to a method for evaluating the brewing performance of hops, in particular to a method suitable for evaluating the brewing characteristics (bitterness and aroma) of hop varieties with different aromas in Lager beer brewing. Background technique [0002] Beer is a low-alcohol wine full of carbon dioxide brewed from malt, hops, and water through yeast fermentation. As the main raw material of beer, malt is obtained from barley through processes such as soaking, germinating, drying and roasting. The quality of malt directly determines the quality of beer. The hops give the beer its refreshing aroma, bitterness and preservative power. The aroma of hops and the fragrance of malt endow the beer with a subtle flavor. Different hop varieties give beer different bitterness and aroma. With the increasing number of scented hop varieties in major hop-growing countries such as the United States, a ...
