Abstract

Rice wines, Yakju-type, were brewed with typical raw materials plus powdered acorns, and storage qualities of the fermented wines were examined. Initial optical densities of the acorn added-rice wines were shown around 0.116 at 660 nm and then decreased to $0.06{\sim}0.075$ after 10 days storage at $4^{\circ}C$. Organic acid contents in the acorn added-rice wines were lower than that of the control: the contents were lactic, succinic, citric, malic, oxalic and fumaric acid in order; and gallic acid, a kind of tannic substances was 0.39 mg%. Peroxide values of the acorn added-rice wines were not markedly changed for 9 days, remaining as low as $2{\sim}3\;meq\;kg^{-1}$ lard of lard, but that of the control was increased to $265\;meq\;kg^{-1}$ lard. As the results of clarity, acidity and antioxidation, the acorn added-rice wines appeared to be preservable, owing to tannic substances extracted from acorn powder.

도토리 약주의 저장 중 성분을 대조구와 비교 분석한 결과 660 nm에서 흡광도 값이 초기 0.116에서 $4^{\circ}C$로 저장 10일 후에는 급격히 감소하여 $0.06{\sim}0.075$로 낮아졌고 대조구는 감소폭이 작아서 도토리 성분이 약주의 청징화에 효과적이었다. 유기산 함량은 대조구에 비해 적었다. GLC에 의한 유기산 정량 결과 lactic, succinic, citric, malic, oxalic 및 fumaric acid의 순이었으며 탄닌 성분인 gallic acid 함량은 0.39 mg%이었다. 도토리 약주의 농축액을 lard에 첨가하여 POV를 측정한 결과 9일 후에 대조구는 $265\;meq\;kg^{-1}$ lard로 증가된 반면에 도토리 약주는 $2{\sim}3\;meq\;kg^{-1}$ lard로서 거의 그대로 머물러 있었으므로 항산화효과가 인정되었다. 저장기간 중 도토리의 탄닌성분에 의한 술의 청징화와 산도저하의 방지에 효과가 있었다.
