Background: This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of adding Korean rice wine residue (RWR) in total mixed ration (TMR) on in vitro ruminal fermentation and growth performance of growing Hanwoo steers. Methods: For in vitro fermentation, the experimental treatments were Control (Con: 0 % RWR + TMR), Treatment 1 (T1: 10 % RWR + TMR), and Treatment 2 (T2: 15 % RWR + TMR). The rumen fluid was collected from three Hanwoo steers and mixed with buffer solution, after which buffered rumen fluid was transferred into serum bottles containing 2 g dry matter (DM) of TMR added with or without RWR. The samples were then incubated for 0 h, 12 h, 24 h, or 48 h at $39^{\circ}C$ and 100 rpm. For the in vivo experiment, 27 Hanwoo steers (6 months old) with an average weight of $196{\pm}8.66kg$ were subjected to a 24-week feeding trial. The animals were randomly selected and equally distributed into three groups. After which the body weight, feed intake and blood characteristics of each group were investigated. Results: The pH of the treatments decreased significantly relative to the control during the 12 h of incubation. Total gas production and ammonia nitrogen ($NH_3-N$) was not affected by RWR addition. The total volatile fatty acid (VFA) was lower after 24 h of incubation but at other incubation times, the concentration was not affected by treatments. Feed cost was 8 % and 15 % lower in T1 and T2 compared to control. Blood alcohol was not detected and a significant increase in total weight gain and average daily gain were observed in Hanwoo steers fed with RWR. Conclusion: Overall, the results of this study suggest that TMR amended with 15 % RWR can be used as an alternative feed resource for ruminants to reduce feed cost.

The objective of the current study was to evaluate the effects of roasting methods on volatile flavor compounds of boricha using solvent-assisted flavor evaporation-gas chromatography (GC)-mass spectrometry and GC-olfactometry. The barley roasting methods tested were air roasting (AR), drum roasting (DR), and air/drum roasting (ADR). Twenty, twenty-one, and eighteen aroma-active compounds were detected in the products of AR, DR, and ADR, respectively. Guaiacol (smoky), 2-acetylpyrazine (almond-like), and furfuryl alcohol (burnt sugar-like) were detected as high intensity aroma-active compounds. Intensities of most aroma-active compounds produced by the DR method were higher. On the other hand, aroma intensities of phenols produced by the AR method, such as guaiacol and 2-methoxy-4-vinylphenol (curry-like), tended to be stronger. Aroma characteristics of phenols are not considered to be desirable for boricha. Although roasting time for DR was longer than that for AR, DR may be an effective barley roasting method for enhancing desirable aroma characteristics of boricha.

In order to standardize the manufacturing processes of Hahyangju, a traditional Korean liquor, 29 yeast strains were isolated from traditional Nuruk. Strain N8 exhibited a particularly strong resistance to sugar. Strains HA2, HA3 and HA4 grew successfully in medium containing 10% ethanol. In comparison with the growth exhibited by these strains when grown in a yeast malt extract medium, the ethanol production rates for the three strains were 10.8%, 10.45%, and 10%, respectively in a yeast malt extract medium containing 25% glucose. Based on these results, HA3 was the strain selected for use in the manufacturing processes of Hahyangju and it was identified as a Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain with 97% ITS sequence similarity. The use of Saccharomyces cerevisiae HA3 causcd a decrease in the lactic acid content, acidity and growth of lactic acid bacteria in the fermentation mash. Following thc addition of Saccharomyces cerevisiae HA3 to the manufacturing process of Hahyangju, the second fermentation mash showed a 22% increase in the alcohol production rate associated with traditional fermentation; however, the amino acidity, pH and reducing sugar content showed little change. Sensory evaluation of Hahyangju fermented with S. cerevisiae HA3 also showed better scores than Hahyangju mashed by the traditional method.

The characteristics of used wine yeast strains were as follows, S6U showed low fermentation speed than those of other yeast strains, but this strain fermented completely later. The wine fermented by W-3 was very low contents of total acid, 0.75% and the ones fermented by UCD530 and AC- contained much extract, 3.26 mg/L and 3.22 mg/L respectively. The wine fermented by CEG and CS2 were predominant in yellowness, and EC1118 produced large amount of acetaldehyde, 49.9 mg/L than those of other strains. EC1118 and CY3079 displayed low methylene blue dyeing ratio, below 15%, meaning high alcohol tolerance yeast. UCD530 produced extremely high contents of glycerol, succinate and lactate compared with other strains. These properties revealed that UCD530 was a typical Saccharomyces bayanus species. The main organic acids produced by wine yeasts were pyruvate, lactate, succinate and acetate. The concentration of acetate in experimental wine could be divided into two parts, one group had concentration below 170 mg/L (UCD530, EC1118, AC-, CY3079, W-3), and the other had concentration up to 350 mg/L (S6U, CEG, CS2).

The physicochemical and sensory characteristics of Yakju fermented with different ratios of Taraxacum platycarpum (dandelion) root powder (0, 5, 10, and 15%) were investigated. The pH of Yakju decreased and the total acidity and sugar content increased according to the addition of dandelion root powder. Dandelion root powder (15%) showed significantly higher reducing sugar content on the 3rd day of fermentation compared with other groups, including the control. Also, further exposure of fermentation time showed a declining pattern of reducing sugar content. Including control, the alcohol content increased in all Yakju samples fermented with dandelion root powder as fermentation progressed. The Yakju fermented with 5% dandelion root powder showed the highest sensory scores for color, aroma, taste, swallowing, and overall acceptability as $6.38{\pm}1.27$, $5.58{\pm}1.02$, $5.79{\pm}0.98$, $6.08{\pm}1.21$, and $5.96{\pm}0.91$, respectively. In the present study for the production of Yakju, 5% dandelion root powder was the most appropriate amount to be added for the production of Yakju. The result obtained here may provide fundamental data for the traditional Yakju industry, which is interested in using a variety of natural resources.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of roasting degree of barley on aroma characteristics of boricha (barley tea) using solvent-assisted flavor evaporation-gas chromatography-mass spectrometry and gas chromatography-olfactometry. Fifteen volatile compounds including pyrazine, ethylpyrazine, butyrolactone, and guaiacol were considered important volatile compounds, which are generated by roasting barley, because concentrations of those volatiles were significantly increased (p<0.05) as roasting degree of barley was darker. Guaiacol (smoky), furfuryl alcohol (burnt sugar), and furfural (caramel) were detected as aroma-active compounds of boricha with high intensity. Aroma intensity of aroma-active compounds in boricha increased with increase in roasting degree of barley. However, one unknown compound with burnt smell was detected as off-flavor in dark roasted barley. Therefore, it is implied that medium roasting of barley is desirable during boricha manufacturing. Furthermore, boricha manufactured with steamed barley contained more abundant volatile flavor compounds, which may lead to better aroma quality of boricha.

We investigated the effects of milling degrees of rice on characteristics of the steamed rice and fermentation of rice koji as a raw material of cheongju. It was studied for 8 months about ratio of water absorption and koji charateristics according to milling degrees. The The more increasing rice milling, the less the protein contents of milled rice was continuously decreased and the lipid and ash contents were sharply decreased to until the milling degrees 20%, and then gradually decreased. When steeping the milled rice, higher milling degrees raised rapid water asorption and higher maximum water asorption, lower water temperature raised gradual water absorption and higher maximum absorption. The longer steeping time, the steamed rice milling degrees 40% showed significantly lower hardness and springness than others. Alcohol contents of the fermented mash with rice koji milling degrees 10% was lower with 16.3-16.9%(v/v) than other sample's 17.1-17.5% (v/v). The total acid contents showed that the milling degrees 10% indicated the lowest content(0.71-0.76%) and the milling degrees 30% indicated highest content(0.93-0.99%). Within the same milling degrees, As the steeping time increases, the total acid contents imcrease. In conclusion, the milling degrees influenced on physicochemical chatacteristics of rice and steamed rice condition.

This study was conducted (1) to isolate the film-forming yeast from the commercially available soy sauce, (2) to identify the state of soy sauce fermentation by the use of yeasts, (3) to confirm characteristics of yeasts. The result were as follows. 1. These yeast strains in the soy sauce fermentation test showed full fermentation of whole sugar content, reduction of the pure extract and relative reduction in total nitrogen. Soy sauce color was somehow faded to lower the stability of soy sauce. 2. In anti-fungal activity test butylparaben at a higher level 60 ppm., sodium propionate 2,400 ppm, sodium benzoate 800 ppm., menadion 165 ppm, showed their anti-fungal effect, while alcohol did not show the effect in the 3% additive group. 3. The optimum sodium chloride concentration for these strains in the 2% G.Y.P. medium was 5% and optimum temperature was $30^{\circ}C$. The extinction temperature was $62^{\circ}C$ for strain No-1 and No-3, and was $65^{\circ}C$ for No-2 and No-4. 4. The film-forming soy sauce turned out in the gas chromatogram to possess much flavor of low boiling point as compared with the standard. These flavors were considered due to flavor spoilage of the soy sauce. 5. These isolated yeasts were identified Saccharomyces rouxii (film-forming yeast) in the Lodder's taxanomic study.

Since the domestic grape wine industry has been stagnant, the quality of Korean wine must be improved to compete with imported wines. For improving the quality of domestic wine up to 'unfined' or 'unfiltered' wine, this study investigated the possibility of producing 'unfined' or 'unfiltered' wine and their physicochemical characteristics. Muscat Bailey A as a domestic grape was selected to make wine. Prior to refining process after alcohol fermentation, the wine samples were divided into three specimens depending on the treatment of bentonite for clarification and filter (sample A treated with both bentonite and filter, sample B treated with bentonite only, and sample C treated without bentonite and filter). The physicochemical characteristics of each specimen after one week matureness were then investigated. Sample C showed highest values in total phenol and organic acid content among others. Samples B and C showed more stability in intensity, hue, and color. Although it is hard to compare domestic wine with imported wine, it may be possible to improve the quality of domestic wine and contribute to the development of the domestic wine industry when further studies are conducted on in-depth fermentation of wine and improvement of microbiological stability.

This study was carried out to investigate the changes in yeast cell number, organic acid and total acid during the fermentation and distribution processes for enhancement of preservation of Makgeolli. Organic acids, including lactic acid, succinic acid, malic acid and citric acid, were increased with fermentation time, while oxalic acid, phosphoric acid and acetic acid were not detected, respectively. Production of organic acids leaded to pH reduction in Makgeolli. In case of Makgeolli kept at $4^{\circ}C$, there was no change in organic acids until 20 days. On the other hand, when observing the change in organic acid of Makgeolli kept at $25^{\circ}C$, concentration of lactic acid was decreased, while citric acid was not detected from the beginning of storage. However, acetic acid was detected from 10th day and rapidly increased at the 25th day. Therefore, it is suggested that the current expiration date (10 days in a cooler) could be extended.
