The invention provides a method for preparing edible
alcohol by fermenting
wheat starch, which comprises the following steps: pretreatment, enzymolysis, composite
flora fermentation and purification. The
pretreatment method comprises the following steps: sieving wheat B
starch with a 90-110-mesh
sieve, adding water to prepare 32wt%-35wt%
starch milk, adding a composite pre-oxidant, carrying out heat preservation for 40-50 minutes under the conditions that the temperature is 46-50 DEG C and the pH value is 4.9-5.2, then adding a composite degrading
enzyme, and carrying out heat preservation for 20-25 minutes, so as to obtain pretreated
starch milk; the method finally realizes double improvement of product quality and production benefit, the
viscosity of the pretreated starch milk is 270-300 cP, the
reducing sugar of the converted mash is 213-232 g / L, the
fermentation time is 48-52 h, the residual total
sugar of the fermented mature mash is 1.5-1.7 g / L, the purity of the prepared
alcohol reaches 96.3%-96.6%, the yield is 0.459-0.466 L / kg starch, the content of n-propyl
alcohol is 0.2-0.4 mg / L, and the content of
isobutanol and
isoamyl alcohol is 0.3-0.6 mg / L.
