Problems solved by technology

The concentration and drying process of the tea extract have a great influence on the tea flavor components and active substances. The drying methods currently used include spray drying, freeze drying, continuous vacuum drying, etc. Spray drying has the advantages of low cost, rapid and continuous operation. and other advantages, but the drying temperature is high, the instant solubility is poor, and the flavor quality is greatly affected
Conventional vacuum drying is generally evaporated and dried at 15-70 °C, which can be produced continuously and has good instant solubility, but the concentration of the material is high, and the active ingredients of the flavor will have a certain impact
Vacuum freeze-drying is widely used in tea and other plant extract powders because low-temperature sublimation drying has little effect on the flavor and active ingredients of the material, but it cannot be produced continuously, with low production capacity and high drying costs

Abstract

The invention relates to a method of continuous vacuum freezing and drying of instant tea powder and belongs to the technical field of tea processing. The method includes the following process steps: subjecting tea leaves to blending, firing, grinding, multistage countercurrent column extraction at low temperature and filtration treatment sequentially to obtain tea extract; subjecting the tea extract to cooling, centrifuging and membrane passing treatment to obtain concentrated solution; concentrating the concentrated solution via a DT disk tube type or ST screen tube type reverse osmosis membrane to final concentrated solution 10-30Brix so as to obtain secondary concentrated solution; feeding the secondary concentrated solution into a continuous freeze drying device to prepare the instant tea powder. The instant tea powder is of a multidimensional hollow structure, volume weight of the tea powder is 12-18g / 100ml, cold solubility is excellent, the rate of water dissolution at the temperature below 10 DEG C is less than 15sec, and the instant tea powder has quality characteristics of strong fragrance, freshness and mellowness and maintains high-activity functional factors.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of tea processing, in particular to a method for adopting continuous vacuum freeze-drying instant tea powder. Background technique [0002] Tea contains many effective ingredients such as tea polyphenols, tea polysaccharides, theanine, theaflavins, and caffeine. So far, the medical and health functions of tea that have been confirmed by modern science mainly include: anti-tumor, anti-mutation, anti-aging, anti-fatigue, anti-radiation, anti-caries, elimination of heavy metal poisoning, metabolic regulation and physiological regulation, beauty, inhibition of harmful Microorganisms, enhance memory and improve the brain, etc. [0003] With people's understanding of tea and health, the application field of tea is gradually expanding, and the tea deep processing technology is becoming more and more mature.
