AI Technical Summary
The existing Monascus fermentation sweet tea technology has imprecise control of fermentation conditions, which affects microbial growth and metabolism, resulting in insufficient extraction and conversion of sweet tea's active ingredients. There is a lack of systematic research and optimization of key parameters, and the post-fermentation processing process is not perfect.
The method of fermenting sweet tea with Monascus purpureus is adopted, and the humidity and temperature are controlled, fermentation is carried out in the dark, and fermentation parameters such as bacterial liquid concentration, inoculation amount, fermentation time, etc. are optimized. Combined with drying treatment, the Monascus purpureus fermented sweet tea is prepared.
The biological activity and appearance quality of sweet tea are improved, the bitter taste is reduced, the color of the tea leaves is reddish, the taste is sweeter, and the soup color is bright, forming an adjustable production process to ensure product quality.
