AI Technical Summary
In existing technologies, traditional Daqu production has a long cycle and limited saccharification and fermentation power, resulting in a long fermentation cycle and unstable alcohol yield for baijiu. Pure bran koji lacks flavor richness, and yeast strains are not capable of fully exerting their effectiveness in short-term fermentation due to insufficient alcohol yield and tolerance.
The product uses a functionally enhanced starter culture, which is a mixture of bran starter culture and compound fermentation starter culture. The bran starter culture contains Rhizopus strains with high saccharification capacity and high alcohol-producing yeast strains. Combined with compound fermentation starter culture, it adopts a two-stage fermentation mode of producing wine in stone cellars and generating aroma in mud cellars, forming a compound fermentation system with complementary advantages.
It significantly shortens the fermentation cycle, increases the alcohol yield and the proportion of premium wine, ensures the typical style and flavor harmony of the wine, and reduces production costs.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to a functional enhancement starter, and more particularly to a functional enhancement starter for brewing strong-aroma baijiu, its application and method, belonging to the field of baijiu brewing technology. Background Technology
[0002] Traditional Chinese baijiu brewing generally uses daqu (a type of starter culture) as the saccharification and fermentation agent. Daqu relies on natural inoculation and the synergistic effect of various microorganisms to form a rich system of flavor compounds in baijiu. However, the production cycle of daqu is usually long (e.g., 3-6 months), and its saccharification and fermentation power are relatively limited. This results in a generally long fermentation cycle for baijiu (usually 30-90 days or more), with fluctuating yield and relatively high production costs.
[0003] Bran koji, a modern and pure-culture koji, is characterized by strong saccharification power, short fermentation cycle (usually 2-3 days), and high alcohol yield, and is used in baijiu production. However, the microbial system of pure-culture bran koji is relatively simple, and the baijiu brewed from it often lacks the richness of flavor compared to traditional daqu baijiu. Furthermore, the alcohol yield and tolerance of the yeast strains used in conventional bran koji are insufficient to fully realize their potential during short-term fermentation.
[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need to find a baijiu brewing scheme that combines the high efficiency of bran koji with the rich flavor of traditional daqu koji. Summary of the Invention

[0032] The present application will be further described in detail in conjunction with specific application examples, but the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto.

[0036] 2. Bran koji preparation:
[0037] (2.1) Rhizopus bran koji: take bran 100 kg, mix with water about 80 kg, sterilize by cooking, cool to about 35℃; inoculate R-12-UV08 0.5 kg in a triangular flask, mix thoroughly, incubate at 30℃ for about 40 hours, when the mycelium grows luxuriantly, dry at about 45℃ to moisture content ≤12%, then crush, and reserve.
[0038] (2.2) Yeast bran koji: bran 100 kg, add water about 75 kg, mix well, cook and sterilize, cool to about 32 °C; inoculate Y-05-NG22 test tube strain 0.8 kg, mix well, incubate at 32 °C for about 28 hours, until the aroma is rich, then dry at about 40 °C to moisture content ≤12%, then crush and reserve.
[0039] 3. Preparation of compound Daqu: take out retort mother Daqu about 2000 kg, spread and cool to about 35 °C, add raw bran 200 kg, mix well, then stack in the airing room, stack height about 1.2 meters. Incubate and ferment for about 60 hours, during which the temperature at the top of the stack center reaches 50 °C. Take about 200 kg of new microbial clumps from the surface layer of the stack, dry in a ventilated place to a moisture content of ≤15%, to obtain compound Daqu. The remaining stack material is used as raw aroma mother Daqu for subsequent liquor brewing.
[0040] 4. Combined functional enhanced koji: mix the above prepared Rhizopus bran koji (15 kg), yeast bran koji (10 kg) and compound Daqu (75 kg) evenly to obtain 100 kg of enhanced koji.
[0041] Application Example 2: Application of enhanced koji for liquor brewing
[0042] 5. Raw material treatment and incubation and saccharification: soak whole kernel sorghum 1000 kg in hot water (temperature > 85 °C) generated during the cooling stage of liquor distillation for about 6 hours, then cook in a retort for about 50 minutes until the cracking rate > 90% and there is no living center inside. After retorting, spread and cool to 25 °C, add 20 kg of enhanced koji prepared in Application Example 1 (2% of the mass of sorghum feed), mix well, then transfer to a saccharification tank, the material layer thickness is about 25 cm, incubate and saccharify for about 30 hours.
[0043] 6. Enter the stone cellar to produce wine fermentation: mix the saccharified Daqu with the Daqu prepared after the previous fermentation and distillation (about 1500 kg), spread and cool to 20 °C. Pack the mixed Daqu into the stone cellar, compact, double-seal with sealing mud and plastic cloth, and ferment for 8 days.
[0044] 7. Enter the mud cellar for aroma fermentation: mix the raw aroma mother Daqu (about 2000 kg) remaining after the preparation of compound Daqu in Application Example 1 with the wine-producing Daqu obtained from the stone cellar fermentation at a mass ratio of 1:1.5, add 300 kg of a mixture of wine head and wine tail (alcohol content about 30% vol) to the mixture, then enter the mud cellar for fermentation for 45 days.
[0045] 8. Distillation and liquor extraction: the fermented and matured raw liquor is taken out, mixed with steamed bran (about 20 kg per distillation pot), and then distilled in a distillation pot. First, about 5 kg of wine head (alcohol content of 75%vol or above) is cut off (converted to 60%vol); then about 320 kg of superior wine (alcohol content of 65%-70%vol) is extracted (converted to 60%vol); then ordinary wine is continuously extracted until the alcohol content is reduced to 50%vol; finally, the wine tail is extracted.
[0046] Finally, the liquor yield of the base liquor of the application example (calculated at 60%vol, relative to the amount of sorghum) reaches about 48%. The produced base liquor has a pure body, obvious cellar aroma and sweet taste, and a typical style.
[0047] Comparative application example:
[0048] The traditional 100% medium-temperature Daqu (amounting to 20% of the total amount of grain) is used without the stone cellar wine production fermentation stage, and the grain is steamed and burned for liquor making, and then directly put into the mud cellar for fermentation for 90 days. Other raw materials and main operating conditions are basically the same as those in application 2.
[0049] Results: The liquor yield of the traditional process (calculated at 60%vol) is about 39%, and the extraction rate of superior liquor is about 55%.
[0050] From the results of the above application examples, it can be seen that the enhanced koji and its application and method provided by the present application can significantly improve the liquor yield and the rate of superior liquor (48% vs 39%, 67% vs 55%) in a shorter total fermentation period (about 53 days vs 90 days), and the wine quality is stable, which shows good economic benefits.
[0051] In summary, the present application uses whole kernel sorghum as grain, uses enhanced koji (composite microbial system) as saccharifying and fermenting agent, and innovatively uses the two-stage fermentation mode of "stone cellar wine production + mud cellar aroma production". Compared with the traditional process (broken grain, medium-temperature Daqu, and single mud cellar long-term fermentation), the fermentation period is significantly shortened, the liquor yield and the proportion of superior liquor are improved, and the benefits of technological progress are reflected, under the premise of ensuring the typical style of the wine body.
[0052] The beneficial effects of the present application compared with the traditional Luzhou-flavor liquor brewing process are as follows:
[0053] The above embodiments are not a limitation on the present application, and the present application is not limited to the above examples. Changes, modifications, additions or substitutions made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technical solutions of the present application also fall within the protection scope of the present application.
