Abstract
In order to reduce malic acid in low-alcohol content appel wine $(6{\sim}9%)$ malate-decomposing yeast, Schzosaccharomyces japonicus var. japonicus St-3 was used. Fallen apples before the harvesting season were collected and extraction was made. The apple extract was fortified with sucrose to make final sugar concentration of 18% in case of 9% base wine. High acid content in the primarily fermented apple wine could be reduced by following with malo-alcoholic fermentation using Schizosaccharomyces japonicus var. japonicus St-3 in second half of alcoholic fermentation using Saccharomyces sp. R-11. Secondary fermentation was proceeded at low temperature $(7{\sim}8^{\circ}C)$ for 130 days using Saccharomyces sp. R-11. Prior to the secondary fermentation, two percent of sugar was added to the base wine in order to produce carbon dioxide gas. And each five percent of specially prepared malt extract and hop extract were added to the base wine in order to increase foam stability. Better shelf-life was observed by keeping high carbon dioxide pressure$(2.3{\sim}2.5kg/cm^2)$ in the bottle. It was assured that the better low-alcohol content apple wine could be brewed by the method which we used above.
낙과(落果)나 미숙과(未熟果)를 사용(使用)한 저농도주정함유(低濃度酒精含有)$(6{\sim}9%)$사과주의 양조(釀造)에 있어서 과도한 산(酸)을 감소(減少)시키기 위하여 사과산분해효모(分解酵母)인 Schizosaccharomyces japonicus var. japonicus St-3의 이용성(利用性)을 검토(檢討)하였다. 원료(原料)사과를 착즙(窄汁)하고 9% 사과주의 경우는 base wine 발효전(醱酵前)에 18%의 당농도(糖濃度)가 되게 보당(補糖)하였다. base wine은 알코올발효(醱酵)(Saccharomyces sp. R-11 이용(利用)) 후기(後期)에 malo-alcohol발효(醱酵)(Schizosaccharomyces japonicus var. japonicus St-3 이용(利用))를 유도(誘導)하는 것이 감산(減酸) 및 품질면(品質面)에서 가장 양호(良好)하였다. 후발효(後醱酵)는 Saccharomyces sp R-11을 이용(利用)하여 저온(低溫)$(7{\sim}8^{\circ}C)$에서 약 130일(日) 동안 지속되었다. 후발효전(後醱酵前)에 $CO_2$가스생성(生成)을 위하여 당(糖) 2%를 첨가(添加)하였으며 포지력(泡持力)을 증강(增强)시키기 위하여 5%의 맥아즙(麥芽汁) 및 hop 즙(汁)이 각각 첨가(添加)되었다. 후발효(後醱酵) 종료후(終了後)에 병내(甁內) $CO_2$ 압력(壓力) $2.3{\sim}2.5kg/cm^2C$을 유지함으로써 저장성(貯藏性)이 부여되었으며 저농도(低濃度) 주정함유(酒精含有)사과주 양조(釀造)가 가능(可能)했다.
