[0043] The liquor product body state requires clear transparency, and only a small amount of aggregates is allowed at any temperature condition. However, since the caramel color itself contains a certain amount of insoluble impurities, it is easy to cause self-settling phenomenon, and adding it to the liquor may also cause co-settling of other particles, affecting the quality of the liquor.

[0044] Based on the above problems, the caramel color for liquor is subjected to pH adjustment, alcohol precipitation treatment and salting-out treatment, so as to effectively reduce the content of insoluble impurities in the caramel color; then the caramel color clear liquid combined with membrane filtration is added to the liquor, and the obtained colored liquor has less impurity content and high stability.

[0045] One or more embodiments of the present application provide a pretreatment method of caramel color for liquor, comprising the following steps: using a first yellow wine to adjust the pH of the caramel color, then adding a second yellow wine for alcohol precipitation treatment to prepare a first system; the acidity of the first yellow wine is greater than that of the second yellow wine; mixing the first system with salt for salting-out treatment to prepare a second system; and subjecting the second system to standing treatment.

[0046] It should be noted that in the present application, "first yellow wine", "second yellow wine", "first system", "second system" and the like are only for the purpose of description, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or quantity, nor can it be understood as implying the importance or quantity of the indicated technical features. Moreover, "first", "second" and the like only serve the purpose of non-exhaustive enumeration description, and should be understood as not constituting a closed limitation on the quantity.

[0047] The acidity in the first yellow wine is mainly used to adjust the pH value, simulating the pH value of the liquor system; the second yellow wine mainly undergoes alcohol precipitation reaction, and high-alcohol-content yellow wine is selected. During the fermentation of yellow wine, too high acidity will inhibit the activity of yeast, so that the fermentation cannot be fully carried out, the sugar cannot be completely converted into alcohol, and the final alcohol content is reduced, so the acidity of the first yellow wine needs to be greater than that of the second yellow wine.

[0048] Understandably, the above caramel color pretreatment method for cooking wine uses yellow rice wine with different acidities to adjust the pH of caramel color and perform alcohol precipitation treatment. The pH adjustment makes the caramel color consistent with the pH range of cooking wine. After the isoelectric point of caramel color is changed, yellow rice wine is added for alcohol precipitation treatment. The negatively charged substances in caramel color can combine with positively charged proteins to form a yellow rice wine turbidity phenomenon, causing the proteins in yellow rice wine to aggregate with the negatively charged substances in caramel color to form large precipitates. Salt is used to perform salting-out treatment on caramel color. The strong electrolyte sodium chloride affects the colloidal properties of the caramel color system, thereby promoting the premature precipitation and flocculation of the caramel color system and reducing the content of insoluble impurities. Therefore, pretreating caramel color using the above method can effectively reduce the content of insoluble impurities in caramel color, thereby reducing the impact on the quality of cooking wine.

[0049] In some embodiments, the acidity of the first yellow rice wine is 6 g / L-7 g / L; for example, it can be but is not limited to 6 g / L, 6.1 g / L, 6.2 g / L, 6.3 g / L, 6.4 g / L, 6.5 g / L, 6.6 g / L, 6.7 g / L, 6.8 g / L, 6.9 g / L, 7 g / L, or a range between any two of the above acidities, etc. Thus, the addition of yellow rice wine with an acidity of 6 g / L-7 g / L can simulate the acidity of the cooking wine system, thereby changing the isoelectric point of the caramel color system added to the cooking wine.

[0050] As a possible implementation, the acidity of the second yellow rice wine is 4 g / L-5 g / L; for example, it can be but is not limited to 4 g / L, 4.1 g / L, 4.2 g / L, 4.3 g / L, 4.4 g / L, 4.5 g / L, 4.6 g / L, 4.7 g / L, 4.8 g / L, 4.9 g / L, 5 g / L, or a range between any two of the above acidities, etc. Thus, the second yellow rice wine mainly provides high alcohol concentration, and at this acidity, the yellow rice wine has less impact on the inhibition of yeast activity.

[0051] In some embodiments, the first yellow rice wine is used to adjust the pH of the caramel color to 4-6. As a non-limiting example, the pH of the caramel color can be adjusted to 4, 4.2, 4.4, 4.6, 4.8, 5, 5.2, 5.4, 5.6, 5.8, 6, or a range between any two of the above pH values, etc.

[0052] In some embodiments, when the alcohol precipitation treatment is performed, the mass percentage of caramel color in the mixture obtained after the second yellow wine is added is 40%-80%; for example, it can be but is not limited to 40%, 42%, 44%, 46%, 48%, 50%, 52%, 54%, 56%, 58%, 60%, 62%, 64%, 66%, 68%, 70%, 72%, 74%, 76%, 78%, 80% or a range between any two of the above mass percentages, etc. When the alcohol precipitation treatment is performed, when the mass percentage of caramel color is controlled in the above range, the other negatively charged substances in the caramel color will fully react with the proteins in the yellow wine, reducing the risk of precipitation in the cooking wine added subsequently.

[0053] As a possible implementation, when the salt precipitation treatment is performed, the mass percentage of sodium chloride in the mixture obtained after the sodium chloride is mixed with the first system and the table salt is 2%-6%; for example, it can be but is not limited to 2%, 2.2%, 2.4%, 2.6%, 2.8%, 3%, 3.2%, 3.4%, 3.6%, 3.8%, 4%, 4.2%, 4.4%, 4.6%, 4.8%, 5%, 5.2%, 5.4%, 5.6%, 5.8%, 6% or a range between any two of the above values, etc. When the salt precipitation treatment is performed, when the mass percentage of sodium chloride is in the above range, the salt precipitation treatment affects the colloid properties of the caramel color system, thereby promoting the caramel color system to precipitate and flocculate in advance, and reducing the content of insoluble impurities.

[0054] As a possible implementation, when the salt precipitation treatment is performed, the table salt is added in the form of a table salt aqueous solution.

[0055] In some optional embodiments, the mass percentage concentration of the table salt aqueous solution is 25%-32%; for example, it can be but is not limited to 25%, 26%, 27%, 28%, 29%, 30%, 31%, 32% or a range between any two of the above mass percentage concentrations, etc.

[0056] In some of the embodiments, the standing treatment time is 18h-36h; for example, it can be but is not limited to 18h, 20h, 22h, 24h, 26h, 28h, 30h, 32h, 34h, 36h or a range between any two of the above times, etc.

[0057] One or more embodiments of the present application provide a caramel color pretreatment method for cooking wine, comprising the following steps: mixing caramel color and table salt to perform salt precipitation treatment on the caramel color, to prepare system A; using a first yellow wine to adjust the pH of system A, and then adding a second yellow wine to perform alcohol precipitation treatment, to prepare system B; the acidity of the first yellow wine is greater than that of the second yellow wine; and performing standing treatment on system B.

[0058] Understandably, the above-mentioned caramel color pretreatment method for cooking wine uses yellow rice wine with different acidities to adjust the pH of caramel color and perform alcohol precipitation treatment in sequence. The pH adjustment makes the caramel color consistent with the pH range of cooking wine. After the isoelectric point of caramel color is changed, yellow rice wine is added for alcohol precipitation treatment. The negatively charged substances in caramel color can combine with positively charged proteins to form a yellow rice wine turbidity phenomenon, resulting in the aggregation of proteins in yellow rice wine and negatively charged substances in caramel color into large precipitates. Salt is used to perform salting-out treatment on caramel color. The strong electrolyte sodium chloride affects the colloidal properties of the caramel color system, thereby promoting the premature precipitation and flocculation of the caramel color system and reducing the content of insoluble impurities. Therefore, the above-mentioned method for pretreating caramel color can effectively reduce the content of insoluble impurities in caramel color, thereby reducing the impact on the quality of cooking wine.

[0059] In some embodiments, the acidity of the first yellow rice wine is 6 g / L-7 g / L; for example, it can be but is not limited to 6 g / L, 6.1 g / L, 6.2 g / L, 6.3 g / L, 6.4 g / L, 6.5 g / L, 6.6 g / L, 6.7 g / L, 6.8 g / L, 6.9 g / L, 7 g / L, or a range between any two of the above acidities, etc. Thus, the addition of yellow rice wine with an acidity of 6 g / L-7 g / L can simulate the acidity of the cooking wine system and change the isoelectric point of the caramel color system added to the cooking wine.

[0060] As a possible embodiment, the acidity of the second yellow rice wine is 4 g / L-5 g / L; for example, it can be but is not limited to 4 g / L, 4.1 g / L, 4.2 g / L, 4.3 g / L, 4.4 g / L, 4.5 g / L, 4.6 g / L, 4.7 g / L, 4.8 g / L, 4.9 g / L, 5 g / L, or a range between any two of the above acidities, etc. Thus, the second yellow rice wine mainly provides high alcohol concentration, and at this acidity, the yellow rice wine has less impact on the inhibition of yeast activity.

[0061] In some embodiments, the first yellow rice wine is used to adjust the pH of system A to 4-6; as a non-limiting example, the pH of system A can be adjusted to 4, 4.2, 4.4, 4.6, 4.8, 5, 5.2, 5.4, 5.6, 5.8, 6, or a range between any two of the above pH values, etc.

[0062] As a possible implementation, when the alcohol precipitation treatment is performed, the mass percentage of caramel color in the mixture obtained after the second yellow wine is added is 40%-80%; for example, it can be but is not limited to 40%, 42%, 44%, 46%, 48%, 50%, 52%, 54%, 56%, 58%, 60%, 62%, 64%, 66%, 68%, 70%, 72%, 74%, 76%, 78%, 80% or a range between any two of the above mass percentages, etc. When the alcohol precipitation treatment is performed, when the mass percentage of caramel color is controlled in the above range, the other negatively charged substances in the caramel color will fully react with the proteins in the yellow wine, reducing the risk of precipitation in the cooking wine added subsequently.

[0063] In some embodiments, when the salting-out treatment is performed, the mass percentage of sodium chloride in the mixture obtained after the caramel color and the salt are mixed is 2%-6%; for example, it can be but is not limited to 2%, 2.2%, 2.4%, 2.6%, 2.8%, 3%, 3.2%, 3.4%, 3.6%, 3.8%, 4%, 4.2%, 4.4%, 4.6%, 4.8%, 5%, 5.2%, 5.4%, 5.6%, 5.8%, 6% or a range between any two of the above values, etc. When the salting-out treatment is performed, when the mass percentage of sodium chloride is in the above range, the salting-out treatment affects the colloid properties of the caramel color system, thereby promoting the caramel color system to precipitate and flocculate in advance, and reducing the content of insoluble impurities.

[0064] As a possible implementation, when the salting-out treatment is performed, the salt is added in the form of a salt aqueous solution.

[0065] In some optional implementations, the mass percentage concentration of the salt aqueous solution is 25%-32%; for example, it can be but is not limited to 25%, 26%, 27%, 28%, 29%, 30%, 31%, 32% or a range between any two of the above mass percentage concentrations, etc.

[0066] In some of the implementations, the standing treatment is performed for 18h-36h; for example, it can be but is not limited to 18h, 20h, 22h, 24h, 26h, 28h, 30h, 32h, 34h, 36h or a range between any two of the above times, etc.

[0067] One or more embodiments of the present application provide a method for coloring cooking wine, comprising the following steps: adding the caramel color clear liquid prepared by the above pretreatment method into the cooking wine, and then performing a filtration treatment.

[0068] In some embodiments, the percentage of the mass of the caramel color supernatant relative to the mass of the cooking wine is 0.4%-1.2%; for example, it can be but is not limited to 0.4%, 0.5%, 0.6%, 0.7%, 0.8%, 0.9%, 1%, 1.1%, 1.2%, or a range between any two of the above percentages, etc.

[0069] As a possible implementation, the filtration treatment is performed using an ultrafiltration membrane; through the filtration treatment, the impurity content in the cooking wine is further reduced, and the stability of the cooking wine is improved.

[0070] In some alternative embodiments, the pore size of the ultrafiltration membrane is 30KD-60KD; for example, it can be but is not limited to 30KD, 35KD, 40KD, 45KD, 50KD, 55KD, 6KD, or a range between any two of the above pore sizes, etc.
