Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the technical field of alcoholic beverage processing, specifically to a foam-stable Polygonatum beer and its preparation method. Background Technology

[0002] Beer is one of the oldest alcoholic beverages and ranks third in global consumption after water and tea. Made primarily from barley malt, hops, and water through yeast fermentation, beer is a low-alcohol beverage rich in carbon dioxide, often called "liquid bread." The quality of beer foam refers to a series of intrinsically related characteristics, including foam quantity, stability, adhesion to the walls, concentration, viscosity, and strength. Among these, foam stability, as a key comprehensive characteristic, is often used as a crucial indicator in beer foam quality research; therefore, the stability of beer foam is an important aspect of beer research.

[0003] Polygonatum is the dried rhizome of several perennial herbaceous plants, including Polygonatum sibiricum, Polygonatum multiflorum, and Polygonatum yunnanense, belonging to the genus Polygonatum in the Liliaceae family. In my country, Polygonatum has been used medicinally for over 2000 years and is currently one of the most sought-after medicinal materials. Polygonatum is sweet in taste and neutral in nature, entering the spleen, lung, and kidney meridians. It has functions such as tonifying qi and nourishing yin, strengthening the spleen, moistening the lungs, and benefiting the kidneys. Modern pharmacological studies have shown that Polygonatum can enhance immunity, lower blood sugar, lower blood lipids, and has antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant effects. Currently, the most common way to add it to beer is to directly add it after crushing it. However, this does not maximize its effects. Generally, Polygonatum polysaccharides and Polygonatum protein are among the most common and effective components of Polygonatum. How to maximize its effects in beer is a topic of our current research. Summary of the Invention

[0004] Technical Problem to be Solved: To address the aforementioned technical problems, the purpose of this invention is to provide a foam-stable Polygonatum beer and its preparation method. This invention utilizes Polygonatum protease hydrolysate synergistically grafted with Polygonatum polysaccharide onto Australian malt protein to improve the foaming power and foam retention of Polygonatum beer. During enzymatic hydrolysis, Polygonatum protein forms a large number of soluble small molecule peptides. These small molecule peptides can quickly enter the gas-liquid interface, expand, and reorganize the interface, thus enhancing foaming performance. Simultaneously, some hydrophobic amino acid residues originally embedded within the protein molecules are exposed. Furthermore, the iso-α-acids produced during wort fermentation can cross-link with amino acid residues of different hydrophobicities through hydrophobic bonds, thereby reducing the surface tension of the beer foam and ultimately promoting foam stability. On the other hand, by adding Polygonatum polysaccharide grafted onto Australian malt protein, Polygonatum polysaccharide is grafted onto the active side chain groups of Australian malt protein, such as -NH2 and -OH, via the Maillard reaction. The steric hindrance provided by Polygonatum polysaccharide increases the thickness of the interfacial film formed at the gas-water interface, further improving foam stability.

[0005] Technical solution: A method for preparing foam-stable Polygonatum beer, comprising the following steps:

[0006] S1: Take the dried rhizome of Polygonatum, clean it thoroughly, mix it with 20% rice wine, place it in a steamer, steam it for 3 hours, take it out and bake it until it is half-dry, dry it at a constant temperature, and grind it into 80 mesh.

After reacting for 20-30 min, remove the enzymatic hydrolysate, inactivate the enzyme by boiling in a water bath for 10 min, cool to room temperature, adjust the pH to 7.0, centrifuge at 3000 r / min for 20 min, and freeze-dry the supernatant to obtain polygonatum protein hydrolysate.

[0011] S6: Take malt and crush it to a particle size ≤0.03mm using the re-moistening crushing method to obtain malt granules;

[0012] S7: Mix malt granules and water at a mass ratio of 1:5, and saccharify at a temperature of 66-68℃ until saccharification is complete, then filter to obtain wort.

[0013] S8: Boil the wort for 70 minutes. Add hops at 40 minutes and 65 minutes after the wort starts boiling. After boiling, allow the wort to swirl and settle.

[0014] S9: Cool the wort obtained by vortex sedimentation to 18-20℃, add the protease hydrolysate of Polygonatum sibiricum, and fill it into the fermentation tank from the bottom. The fermentation tank is lined with multiple layers of mesh, and beer-specific yeast is fixed on the mesh. Ferment for 8-10 days.

[0015] S10: Cool to 4-6℃, add Polygonatum polysaccharide grafted with Australian wheat protein, and carry out post-fermentation for 18-20 days. Take the liquid from the uppermost layer of the membrane to obtain Polygonatum beer with stable foam.

[0016] Furthermore, the mass-to-volume ratio of the Polygonatum sibiricum filter residue to the phosphate buffer in S4 is 1 g:(30-35) mL.

[0017] Furthermore, the mass ratio of trypsin to protamine in S5 is 1.5:100.

[0019] Furthermore, the amount of Polygonatum hydrolysate added in S9 is 0.5-2% of the wort mass.

[0020] Furthermore, the spacing between the multiple layers of mesh in S9 is 20-30cm.

[0021] Furthermore, the preparation method of the membrane in S9 is as follows:

[0022] (1) Disperse the aluminum silicate fiber evenly in the silica sol, slowly add 15% ammonium chloride solution, and stir;

[0028] Furthermore, the mass ratio of the aluminum silicate fiber, silica sol, ammonium chloride, and nano garnet powder is 0.4:100:7:270.

[0029] Furthermore, the preparation method of the Polygonatum polysaccharide grafted with Australian wheat protein in S10 is as follows:

[0030] (1) Take the Polygonatum polysaccharide and Australian wheat protein obtained from S3, prepare Polygonatum polysaccharide solution and Australian wheat protein solution with a mass fraction of 1% respectively, mix the two in a volume ratio of 1:(1-2) and stir evenly.

[0034] Beneficial effects:

[0035] 1. This invention utilizes Polygonatum sibiricum enzymatic hydrolysate and Polygonatum sibiricum polysaccharide grafted onto Australian wheat protein to improve the foaming power and foam retention of Polygonatum sibiricum beer. During enzymatic hydrolysis, Polygonatum sibiricum protein forms a large number of soluble small molecule peptides. These small molecule peptides can quickly enter the gas-liquid interface, expand, and reorganize the interface, thus enhancing foaming power. At the same time, some hydrophobic amino acid residues that were originally embedded inside the protein molecules are also exposed. The iso-α-acids produced during wort fermentation can cross-link with amino acid residues of different hydrophobicities through hydrophobic bonds, thereby reducing the surface tension of beer foam and ultimately promoting the stability of beer foam. On the other hand, by adding Polygonatum sibiricum polysaccharide grafted onto Australian wheat protein, Polygonatum sibiricum polysaccharide is grafted onto the active groups of the Australian wheat protein side chain, such as -NH2 and -OH, through Maillard reaction. The steric hindrance provided by Polygonatum sibiricum polysaccharide can increase the thickness of the interfacial film formed at the gas-water interface, thereby further improving foam stability.

[0036] 2. The present invention has a multi-layer mesh with beer-specific yeast fixed in place. First, the yeast can be reused after fixation, saving resources. Second, it can reduce the production of proteinase A, which is one of the main causes of foam instability. This application reduces it from the source. Finally, the mesh pore size of the present application is 2-5μm, which can effectively clarify the beer and improve its appearance. It can also further screen out proteinase A and reduce its impact on the beer.

[0037] 3. The addition of Polygonatum protease hydrolysate and Polygonatum polysaccharide grafted Australian wheat protein in this invention not only greatly helps foam stability, but also increases the antioxidant effect of beer, and gives it a rich and unique taste, with nourishing and health-preserving effects.
