Abstract
Fermentation characteristics of chestnut-added yakju prepared using various proportions of raw materials such as rice koji, rice flour, cornflour koji and cornflour were investigated. The pH of chestnut-added yakju prepared with cornflour koji and saccharified cornflour showed a higher value than that of chestnut-yakju prepared with rice koji and saccharified rice flour. The total acid content of chestnut-added yakju prepared with rice koji and saccharified rice flour was higher than that of chestnut-added yakju prepared using cornflour koji and sacharified cornflour. The reducing of sugar in chestnut-added yakju prepared with saccharified rice flour or saccharified cornflour was rapid at the first brewing stage, decreased dramatically after 2 days, and then decreased slowly after 5 days of fermentation. The value of L and a, the Hunter values, were high in chestnut-added yakju prepared with cornflour koji, and value b was high in chestnut-added yakju with rice koji. The content of iso-amyl alcohol was the highest of seven kinds of fusel oil found in chestnut-added yakju. Ethanol content increased to $17.6{\sim}18.2%$(v/v) after 8 days of fermentation. The content of lactic acid was the highest of all organic acids in the chestnut-added yakju. Sensory test results on chestnut-added yakju prepared with saccharifed corn flour showed that if rice flour is used as a sugar supplement for chestnut, the yakju prepared using koji had better flavor and taste. If cornflour was used in the preparation of chestnut-added yakju, the used of saccharified cornflour offered superior flavor and taste.
