누룩에 따른 약주의 품질 평가

The Quality of Yakju be brewed from many kind of Nuruk

In each nuruk using today, effect of pH on glucoamylase activity and viable cell count of yeast and bacteria was measured. Common components during fermentation, alcohol, acetaldehyde and acetone, amino acid composition, and total sugars and mineral content were determined in yakju(korean wine) brewed from different ingredients and by different methods. Results are summarized as follows ; 1. The lower the pH, the lower the glucoamylase activity in JK, BK, JK-S BK-S and JN. But the higher the glucoamylase activity ratio in Koji and KN. 2. Yeast and bacteria cell count could not determined in nuruk inoculated of seed. In JK, BK and JN, yeast cell count was 50${\times}$104∼80${\times}$104, bacteria cell count was 5${\times}$106∼24${\times}$106. 3. In yakju during fermentation, pH was higher in RU, total acidity content was higher in ST-N, ST-K, RU and ST-RUPO and alcohol content was lower in RUPO and ST-RUPO. 4. Ethanol and acetaldehyde content were highest in dukyunju. Trace amount of acetone was determined only in ST-K, RUPO and ST-RUPO . n-Propyl alcohol content was higher in ST-K, ST-RUPO and ST-N, iso-butyl alcohol content was higher in L-RUPO, Dukyunju and Songyupju and iso-amyl alcohol content was higher in Songyupju, RU, L-RUPO and Dukyunju. 5. In amino acids composition of each yakju, Pro, Ala and Val content was higher than other amino acids. Total amino acids content was the highest in Dukyunju and second highest in ST-N, NH3 was higher in ST-N, Dukyunju, RUPO than other samples. 6. Total sugars content was the highest in ST-N and second highest in RU. 7. P, K and Mg content were higher in Dukyunju and ST-N than in other samples. In Dukyunju, Ca and P ratio was 0.075 because of low Ca content and high P content.
