Abstract

For set up the processing method of Byeo-Nuruk, we investigated the quality characteristics of Byeo-Nuruk according to the mixture ratio of rice and wheat, as well as the addition rate of moisture. After 12 hours of incubation, the temperature of Nuruk increased dramatically and reached a maxium temperature at 36 hours. After 36 hours, the temperature decreased gradually and was maintained at about $31{\sim}38^{\circ}C$. The ranges of pH and titratable acidity of Byeo-Nuruk were 4.85 to 7.42 and 1.0 to 2.3, respectively. A higher content of wheat ratio in Byeo-Nuruk, was associated with higher enzyme activities of ${\alpha}$-amylase, glucoamylase, and acidic-protease. Further, at a 70% wheat ratio, a 25% addition rate of moisture showed the highest enzyme activity. In the mixture ratio between rice and wheat, the 50:50 and 30:70 treatments contained the highest levels of microorganisms.
