Abstract

Old rice showed higher initial pasting and peak viscosity temperatures than new rice. Reducing sugar contents of rice harvested in 1998 were lowest 24hr after digestion with saccharification enzyme, but similar after 36hr, among rice samples tested. Fermentation characteristics and preference of Takju made by fermenting raw rice harvested from 1998 to 2001 far 7 days were investigated. Alcohol contents during Takju brewing rapidly increased for 5 days to 17.3-18.1%, and were 17.5-18.2% on day 7, with those of Takju brewed with rice harvested in 1998 being highest in both cases. Sensory evaluation results showed Takju fermented with rice harvested in 2000 had highest sweetness, preference, and sourness, and that fermented with rice harvested in 1999 had highest sourness, but no voluntariness was shown between each other (meaning not clear). Moisture contents and gelatinization characteristics of old and new rice were slightly different, although factors adversely affecting Takju such as flavor of old rice did not appear in sensory evaluation probably because old rice was stored in rice bran farm for long times and used after milling. Results reveal surplus old rice could be utilized for Takju brewing.

1998년에서 2001년도에 생산된 묵은 쌀의 일반성분에서는 2000년도 쌀이 11.3%로 가장 높게 나온 수분함량을 제외하고는 일반 쌀의 일반성분과 큰 차이는 없었다. 20분 수분흡수율과 120분 수분흡수율에서는 수분함량이 가장 높게 나타났던 2000년도 쌀이 각각 26.62%, 29.00%로 가장 낮게 나타났다. 호화특성에서는 호화개시온도 그리고 최고점도시의 온도가 오래 저장된 쌀이 높은 것으로 나타났고, 당화속도 비교에서는 1998년 시료가 당화속도가 다른 시료에 비해 24시간 경과시점에서는 늦었으나 36시간 이후에는 시료간의 차이가 없었다. 1998년에서 2001년도에 생산된 쌀을 이용하여 무증자법으로 탁주를 7일간 발효하였고 발효 특성과 선호도를 조사하였다. 무증자법으로 탁주를 담금한 후, 알코올 함량은 담금 5일째까지는 빠르게 증가하여 17.3-18.1%이고 그 중 1998년도 묵은 쌀이 가장 높았으며, 발효 7일째 최종 알코올함량은 17.5-18.2%로 역시 1998년도 묵은 쌀이 가장 높았으나 시료간의 차이는 크지 않았으며 일반 쌀과 마찬가지로 발효가 잘 진행됨을 알 수 있었다. 관능검사에서는 단맛, 신맛, 선호도에서 2000년산이 최고로 나타났으며 쓴맛에서는 1999년산이 최고로 나타났으나 각각에 대한 유의성은 나타나지 앓았다. 묵은 쌀 냄새를 비롯한 탁주에 악영향을 미치는 요인은 관능검사에서도 크게 나타나지 않았으며, 재고로 쌓여있는 묵은 쌀을 무증자 탁주 발효에 활용하면 충분히 사용 가능함을 알 수 있었다.
