[0002] Coffee is the most consumed beverage in the world and one of the most valuable commodities. With the change of people's eating habits and the influence of western culture, the number of people consuming coffee is also rising. According to a number of authoritative data and market research, China's coffee market has become one of the most dynamic markets in the world. Pyrazine compounds are key roasting carriers of roasted coffee, are a class of nitrogen-containing heterocyclic compounds, naturally exist in roasted foods, fermented foods and coffee, and have the characteristics of nut, caramel and roasting aroma.

[0003] There are two outstanding problems in the traditional regulation method: one is that the regulation is extensive, and the excessive dissolution of bitter taste, astringent taste or miscellaneous taste often accompanies the improvement of the target flavor; the second is that although the addition of essence or single flavor substance can make up for the deficiency, it is easy to lead to superficial and unnatural aroma, and lack of integration with coffee base. Especially in the emerging compound beverage of salted egg yolk coffee, the flavor coordination between the salty and fresh emulsified ingredients and the coffee base is more difficult. If the dynamic control of pyrazine substances is lacking, the problem of single or unstable flavor level often occurs.

[0004] The core value of the present application lies in that the key bridge flavor substance-pyrazine in salted egg yolk coffee can be dynamically and synergistically regulated from raw material processing, process extraction to finished product blending, so as to solve the bottleneck of the prior art and realize the stability, harmony and optimization of product flavor.

[0017] The application will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings. The features of the embodiments and examples described below can be combined with each other, without conflict.

[0018] Referring to Figure 1 The preparation method of the salted egg yolk coffee based on the synergistic and dynamic regulation of the pyrazine flavor of the present application selects a Brazilian coffee sample as the research object, and the preparation method specifically includes the following steps: Step one, grinding and base preparation of coffee beans: grind and prepare two coffee beans with different roasting degrees.

[0019] Further, the step of base preparation specifically includes: through the proportioning of two coffee beans with different roasting degrees, the content of pyrazine substances and the sensory thickness are directionally adjusted to realize the directional regulation of the content of pyrazine substances and the sensory flavor. Different roasting degrees refer to clearly different roasting degrees, such as light and medium roasting degrees, and the like.

[0020] Step two, powder pressing and high-pressure extraction: during the powder pressing process, pyrazine flavor coffee extract microcapsules are added to the coffee base, and high-pressure extraction is performed on the coffee powder after powder pressing to release oil and dissolve flavor substances.

[0021] The extraction pressure and temperature are 20 bar and 92-96℃, respectively, which can ensure sufficient extraction power, and the dynamic release of pyrazine flavor substances can be achieved by adjusting the temperature gradient of extraction (such as 92℃, 94℃, 96℃). At 92℃, the taste is bright, the sourness and original flavor are prominent, such as floral fragrance; at 94℃, the balance of sour and sweet flavors is highlighted, with prominent flavors of almond, hazelnut, etc.; at 96℃, the taste is mellow, with prominent flavors of dark chocolate, caramel and cocoa.

[0022] Further, the preparation steps of the coffee extract microcapsule specifically include: using a water phase molecular embedding method to prepare a coffee characteristic aroma (pyrazine flavor) nanocarrier material capsule, which includes five processes in sequence: mixing, refrigeration, filtration, drying, and measurement. Specifically, under stirring and water bath, first disperse the nanocarrier into 120-210 mL of water, then add a certain amount of coffee extract (pyrazine flavor substances), react for 10 min, then ultrasonically extract at 35℃ for 0-60 min, place the beaker in a 4℃ refrigerator for 24 h, then filter to obtain a precipitate, dry the precipitate in a 55℃ oven for 4 h to obtain coffee extract microcapsules, and finally perform liquid phase measurement to measure the content of various pyrazines, i.e., use high-performance liquid chromatography for quantitative analysis to measure the content of various pyrazines (unit: mg / L). By changing the embedding rate and release rate of the coffee extract microcapsule, the flavor hierarchy of pyrazine substances can be achieved. The pyrazine flavor coffee extract microcapsule is embedded in the press powder process, and the synergistic effect of instantaneous release and delayed release of the coffee extract microcapsule can enhance the nutty and caramel flavors.

[0023] Step three, preparation of salted egg yolk milk cover: through three processes of pre-cooling treatment, mixing of seasonings, and stirring preparation, the salted egg yolk milk cover is prepared.

[0024] Specifically, a. pre-cooling treatment: refrigerate the milk and light cream for 3-4 hours to ensure stable whipping stability through low temperature; b. mixing of seasonings: mix the salted egg yolk milk cover powder with pure milk in a certain proportion, then add light cream and condensed milk, and refrigerate for 10 minutes for shaping; c. stirring preparation: mix at low speed for 2-4 min until there are no particles, then transfer to a milk cover machine for whipping to a smooth and fluffy texture, and the preparation of the salted egg yolk milk cover is completed.

[0025] Step four, layered assembly and finished product of salted egg yolk coffee: add ice cubes, milk, coffee liquid, and salted egg yolk milk cover in sequence to complete the preparation of salted egg yolk latte coffee and obtain the finished product.

[0026] Specifically, ice cubes are first added to a cup as a base, 10-20 mL of vanilla syrup is then added, 100-200 mL of milk is poured into the bottom of the cup, coffee liquid is slowly injected along the cup wall to form a gradient layer, and finally a salty egg yolk milk cover is added on top to complete the preparation of a cup of salty egg yolk latte coffee, and the finished product is obtained. After adding the salty egg yolk milk cover, the relative abundance of various volatile flavor compounds can be more balanced, and the aroma profile is more stable.

[0027] In some other embodiments, step five, evaluation of the flavor quality of the coffee sample, is also included: flavor analysis is performed on different coffee samples to verify the influence of the synergistic effect of pyrazines on the overall flavor characteristics. The evaluation of the flavor quality includes sensory scoring and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) spectrum analysis, which are used to verify the effect of dynamic regulation on the release of pyrazine substances and the overall aroma balance.

[0028] Further, sensory scoring invites 10 members who have long-term research on coffee to form an evaluation team to conduct sensory evaluation under room temperature conditions. The evaluation members perform sensory scoring on the coffee samples according to the standard in Table 1, with a full score of 10. The coffee samples include sample A, sample B, and sample C. Sample A is ordinary coffee, sample B is salty egg yolk coffee without the addition of coffee extract microcapsules, and sample C is salty egg yolk coffee with the addition of coffee extract microcapsules.

[0029] Table 1: Sensory evaluation scoring standard for salty egg yolk coffee

[0030] Further, GC-MS spectrum analysis is achieved by headspace-solid phase microextraction-gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (HS-SPME-GC-MS) spectrum analysis. Specifically, coffee liquid (5-10 mL) is placed in a headspace bottle; DVB / CAR / PDMS fiber is pre-equilibrated at 60℃ for 10 min and extracted for 30-40 min; the GC injection port is 250℃, and the DB-WAX program is used for temperature rising; MS: EI 70eV, m / z 35-350. Qualitative analysis is performed using the NIST library + retention index, and statistics are compared. The chromatographic conditions for collecting GC-MS spectrum information of the coffee sample include: (1) a DB-WAX quartz capillary column with a size of 30m x 0.25mm x 0.25µm; (2) temperature rising program: initial temperature 40℃, holding for 2 min, rising to 120℃ at a rate of 4℃ / min, holding for 4 min, and finally rising to 240℃ at a rate of 10℃ / min, holding for 2 min; (3) He carrier gas flow rate is 0.8-1.0 mL / min. The mass spectrometry conditions for collecting GC-MS spectrum information of the coffee sample: EI ion source, electron energy 70eV, ion source temperature 230℃, quadrupole rod temperature 150℃, and mass range 35-550m / z.
