Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of beer brewing, in particular to health beer and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Beer is brewed with malt as the main raw material, hops added, saccharified, and then fermented in liquid state. It is rich in various amino acids, vitamins, low molecular sugars, inorganic salts and various enzymes, and is a low-concentration alcoholic beverage. However, with the continuous improvement of people's living standards, traditional beer can no longer meet their needs. Developing beer with different flavors and functional nutritional requirements is an important research direction in the current beer brewing field. For example, Chinese patent CN101240229A discloses a method for making bitter melon health beer, in which bitter melon, chrysanthemum and folic acid are added to the fermentation or blending process in the conventional beer production process; the bitter melon refers to the bitter melon juice obtained by washing, juicing, enzymolysis, filtering and sterilizing fresh bitter melon, and the chrysanthemum refers to the chrysanthemum extract obtained by washing, extracting, filtering and sterilizing chrysanthemum. Bitter melon and chrysanthemum are cold in nature, and people often drink beer after ice-cold drinking. For people with cold constitution and spleen and stomach deficiency, bitter melon and chrysanthemum will further enhance the coldness of iced beer, which is not suitable for people with cold constitution.

[0003] Traditional Chinese medicine believes that "the nutrient and defensive qi come out of the middle burner", which means that the nutrient and defensive qi depends on the spleen and stomach for transformation, and the vigorous nutrient and defensive qi is a reflection of the normal function of the spleen and stomach; and yam is sweet and flat in nature, and has the effects of tonifying the spleen and stomach, promoting fluid and benefiting the lungs, tonifying the kidney and astringing the essence; lotus seeds are sweet, astringent and flat in nature, and have the effects of tonifying the spleen and stopping diarrhea, stopping leukorrhea, tonifying the kidney and astringing the essence, nourishing the heart and calming the mind; Gorgon fruit is sweet, astringent and flat in nature, and has the effects of tonifying the kidney and consolidating the essence, tonifying the spleen and stopping diarrhea, removing dampness and stopping leukorrhea; Poria is sweet, light and flat in nature, and has the effects of promoting diuresis and eliminating dampness, strengthening the spleen and calming the mind; Coix seed is sweet, light and cool in nature, and has the effects of promoting diuresis and eliminating dampness, strengthening the spleen and stopping diarrhea, removing numbness, discharging pus, and detoxifying and dispersing nodules. Poria and coix seed can strengthen the spleen and eliminate dampness, which is a treatment for both the symptoms and the root cause; yam, lotus seeds, and Euryale can strengthen the spleen and kidney, astringe the intestines and stop diarrhea, and can nourish both the spleen and kidney, replenish qi and consolidate essence; therefore, the five-flavor ingredients can replenish the qi of the spleen and stomach, transport the spleen, and digest water and grain. The five-flavor ingredients are rich in a variety of vitamins, amino acids, dietary fiber, and trace elements necessary for the human body, and have the effects of enhancing immune function and strengthening the body.

[0058] Comparative Example

[0059] The present invention adds five kinds of raw materials, namely, yam, lotus seed, Euryale ferox, Poria cocos, and coix seed, which are both medicinal and edible, to the traditional beer brewing process. The raw materials are rich in a variety of vitamins, amino acids, dietary fiber, and trace elements necessary for the human body, and have the effects of enhancing immune function and strengthening the body. At the same time, the five raw materials themselves are also Chinese medicinal materials, which can replenish the spleen and kidney, invigorate qi and consolidate essence, strengthen the spleen, and calm the nerves. At the same time, coriander seeds and sweet orange peels are added to increase the fragrance of beer and increase the three-dimensional taste of health beer. The health beer prepared by the present invention has a refreshing, coordinated, soft, comfortable, and good taste. The rich nutritional components improve the endurance of beer foam, and provide research and development reference value for brewing functional nutritious beer by combining Chinese medicine with beer.

[0060] According to the national standard "Beer" (GB4927-2008), the health beer prepared by the methods of Examples 1 to 4 of the present invention belongs to craft beer, which is stored in barrels and has no requirements on turbidity and foam retention; after complete fermentation, it is refrigerated at low temperature and does not require filtering or sterilization processes, thereby ensuring the original flavor of the beer. The health beer meets the requirements of the GB4927-2008 standard.

[0061] According to the requirements of GB4927-2008 for various indicators of barreled beer, the health beers prepared in Examples 1 to 4 were compared in terms of beer appearance, form, aroma and taste, alcohol content, CO2 / % (mass fraction), diacetyl (mg / L), etc. The comparison is shown in the following table:

[0062] Note: GB4927-2008 does not set any requirements for the appearance of barreled beer.

[0063] The present invention selects Chinese yam, Euryale, Poria, lotus seed, and Coix seed as added raw materials, and selecting and adding different raw materials will also affect the flavor and taste of the final beer. The present invention selects Chinese yam, Euryale, Poria, lotus seed, and Coix seed as raw materials because: 1. Chinese yam, Euryale, Poria, lotus seed, and Coix seed have the characteristics of high starch content and high leaching rate, and can be fermented together with malt, which does not conflict with the process route; 2. Chinese yam, Euryale, Poria, lotus seed, and Coix seed are tonic food materials and also have medicinal value. These five medicinal and edible raw materials are used in coordination, and have the effects of strengthening the spleen and calming the nerves; 3. Chinese yam, Euryale, Poria, lotus seed, and Coix seed are mainly sweet, light, and astringent in nature and flavor, without pungent, sour, bitter, etc. The raw materials are all white granular powder after being crushed, which has little effect on the taste of the wine. However, excessive dosage of Chinese yam, Euryale ferox, Poria cocos, lotus seeds, and coix seeds will also produce many negative effects, such as difficulty in filtration, change in taste, incomplete fermentation, astringency, and reduced biological stability. In summary, Chinese yam, Euryale ferox, Poria cocos, lotus seeds, and coix seeds are selected in combination with barley malt and wheat malt as raw materials. The beer prepared by the specific formula, process, and method of the present invention has the effects of strengthening the spleen and calming the nerves, and has a refreshing taste, but the amount of addition still needs to be controlled to avoid negative effects.

The mass ratio of the mixed raw materials to water is 1: (3.4-3.6), and the water temperature is 54°C ± 3°C to obtain a mixed fermentation material, which is then put into a saccharification tank; 2) Heat the mixed fermentation material in the saccharification tank to 56℃±1℃ and maintain this temperature for 30 minutes; 3) Heat the mixed fermentation material in the saccharification tank to 68℃±1℃ and maintain this temperature for 70 minutes; 4) Heat the mixed fermentation material in the saccharification tank to a temperature of 78°C ± 1°C, stop heating, maintain a heating rate of 0.8-1°C / min during the heating process, and stir the mixed fermentation material in the saccharification tank to make the overall temperature uniform; 5) Coarsely filtering the mixed fermentation material after saccharification to obtain a mixed fermentation liquid; Step 3. Boiling: Boil the mixed fermentation liquid, stir and boil for more than 5 minutes, then add Qingdao Dahua; continue to stir and boil for more than 40 minutes, then add Cascade; continue to stir and boil for more than 5 minutes, then add coriander seeds; continue to stir and boil for more than 2 minutes, then stop heating, add sweet orange peel, continue to stir for more than 3 minutes, then pump the mixed fermentation liquid into a vortex sedimentation tank and let it stand for more than 20 minutes; Step 4. Cooling: The upper mixed fermentation liquid after precipitation in the sedimentation tank is passed through a cartridge filter and then cooled through a heat exchanger. When the mixed fermentation liquid is cooled to 20°C, the cooling is stopped, and the mixed fermentation liquid is subjected to uninterrupted low-pressure jet oxygenation cavitation. The jet oxygenation pressure is controlled to be 0.06-0.1Mpa, so that the mixed fermentation liquid is fully mixed with oxygen, and WB-06 yeast is added; Step 5. Fermentation and slag removal: ferment the mixed fermentation liquid at room temperature, seal the tank for storage, ferment at low temperature, and remove the slag to obtain health beer.

4. The method for preparing health beer according to claim 3, characterized in that: The rotation speed of the pulverizer in step 1 is 700-800 rpm, and the pulverized raw materials are sieved through a 30-50 mesh screen to remove residues and large particles.

5. The method for preparing health beer according to claim 3, characterized in that: In the step 2, water is added and stirred evenly: the water added is water cooled to 50-60° C. after boiling; The coarse filtration of the saccharified mixed fermentation material in the step 2 is as follows: the saccharified mixed fermentation material is first sieved through a 20-50 mesh sieve, and when the filtration reaches about 80% to 90%, the residue is washed with water with a mass of 3 times the mass of the mixed raw materials in the step 2, and the filtration is stopped when the filtrate accumulates to 5 to 6 times the mass of the mixed raw materials.

6. The method for preparing health beer according to claim 3, characterized in that: The cartridge filter in step 4 is filtered using a 100-200 mesh screen; The WB-06 yeast is added in step 4 by first injecting a portion of the mixed fermentation liquid into the fermentation tank, then adding the WB-06 yeast during the process of injecting the mixed fermentation liquid into the fermentation tank, and continuously injecting the remaining mixed fermentation liquid into the fermentation tank for uniform mixing.

7. The method for preparing health beer according to claim 3, characterized in that: The room temperature fermentation temperature in the step 5 is controlled between 17°C and 20°C, and the sugar content of the mixed fermentation liquid is reduced to 4°Brix-6°Brix, and the alcohol content is between 4.5%vol and 5.2%vol; the mixed fermentation liquid is sealed and stored, and low-temperature fermentation is continued. The low-temperature fermentation temperature is controlled between 2°C and 5°C, and the air pressure in the tank is continuously monitored to reach: between 1.0 Mpa and 1.2 Mpa, and the low-temperature fermentation is completed; 12 to 24 hours after the low-temperature fermentation is completed, the temperature of the health beer in the tank is maintained at 0°C to 4°C for storage, the air pressure in the tank is maintained at 1.0 Mpa to 1.2 Mpa, and slag is regularly discharged through the slag discharge port of the tank body. When white foam is discharged from the slag discharge port, the slag discharge is stopped to obtain the health beer.
