Health Preserving Wine Using Rhizoma Polygonati and Proso Millet Fermentation
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The existing health preserving wines containing Astragalus membranaceus are not suitable for individuals with spleen and stomach weakness, causing discomfort and inflammatory symptoms, while omitting it reduces the wine's efficacy.
Innovation Solution
A health preserving wine recipe and preparation method using Rhizoma Polygonati and a Rhizoma Polygonati-soaked solution mixture, combined with proso millet, daqu, and yeast, which avoids the adverse effects of Astragalus membranaceus by enhancing the dissolution of active ingredients through soaking and fermentation, ensuring a balanced flavor and immune function enhancement.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If Astragalus membranaceus is used as a raw material in health preserving wine, then the health preserving effect and immune function enhancement are improved, but individuals without spleen and stomach weakness experience discomfort and inflammatory symptoms
Solution Approach 1:
The patent removes Astragalus membranaceus from the wine formulation entirely, extracting the problematic component while retaining the desired health benefits through alternative ingredients (Rhizoma Polygonati, proso millet, Daqu, yeast) that provide immune support without causing inflammatory reactions in individuals without spleen and stomach weakness
Solution Approach 2:
The patent changes the compositional parameters of the wine by replacing Astragalus membranaceus with a specific combination of Rhizoma Polygonati (2.5-6.5 parts) and other fermentation ingredients, altering the medicinal profile to achieve health preservation without the harmful effects of the original formulation
2Object-affected harmful factors
If Astragalus membranaceus is omitted from the raw materials, then discomfort and inflammatory symptoms are avoided, but the health preserving effect decreases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent creates a universal wine formulation that can be consumed by all individuals regardless of their spleen and stomach condition. By using Rhizoma Polygonati combined with proso millet, Daqu, and yeast, the wine provides health preserving effects suitable for both individuals with and without spleen and stomach weakness, eliminating the need for separate formulations
Solution Approach 2:
The patent employs a composite material approach by combining multiple ingredients (Rhizoma Polygonati, proso millet, Daqu, yeast) in specific proportions to create a synergistic effect that achieves health preservation without relying on the strong tonifying property of Astragalus membranaceus that causes discomfort in certain individuals
3Ease of operation
If traditional yellow wine brewing technology is used with Astragalus membranaceus and Rhizoma Polygonati, then the wine has harmonious fragrance and pleasant taste, but the strong tonifying property of Astragalus membranaceus causes discomfort in summer
Solution Approach 1:
The patent removes Astragalus membranaceus from the formulation, extracting the component responsible for strong tonifying effects that cause summer discomfort, while maintaining the traditional yellow wine brewing process and flavor profile through alternative ingredients that do not produce harmful effects in summer
Applied Scientific Principles
This section explains which scientific principles are used to turn an abstract innovation direction into a practical engineering solution.
Function Achieved in This Case
The new wine formulation provides a health preserving effect suitable for individuals without spleen and stomach weakness, maintaining efficacy comparable to traditional recipes while avoiding discomfort, with improved immune function and taste.
Implementation Method 1
the Rhizoma Polygonati-soaked solution mixture is a mixture of a baijiu soaking solution and dregs obtained by soaking Rhizoma Polygonati in baijiu
Implementation Method 2
putting them in a tank for fermentation, then pressing the mixture to obtain a filter solution

AI summary
A composition with a health preserving effect, comprising 2.5-6.5 parts of Rhizoma Polygonati and 27.5-84.5 parts of a Rhizoma Polygonati-soaked solution mixture. The Rhizoma Polygonati-soaked solution mixture is a mixture of a baijiu soaking solution obtained by soaking Rhizoma Polygonati in baijiu and dregs of a decoction. Also provided are health preserving wine prepared from the composition and a preparation method thereof. The preparation method comprises subjecting the Rhizoma Polygonati and the Rhizoma Polygonati-soaked solution mixture to mixed culture fermentation with proso millet. The health preserving wine is prepared by combining fermentation and soaking processes.
