Abstract

In order to investigate the effect of different ingredients on the quality of Korean rice wines, 30% of rice were substituted by malt, corn, potato, soybean, glutinous millet, unpolished rice, glutinous rice, or non-glutinous rice, when rice wines were prepared. Physicochemical and sensory characteristics of the rice wines from the varying ingredients were evaluated. Sample rice wines were analyzed for ethanol, pH, total acid, amino acid, soluble solid, coloring degree, UV absorbance, reducing sugar, organic acids, and free sugars. After fermentation for 16 days, the ethanol contents ranged from 13.28 to 16.23%, while the total acid levels were within the range of 0.27 to 0.32%. The amino acid contents in eight samples ranged from 0.18 to 0.36%, while the soluble solid contents were within the range of 8.35 to $11.1^{\circ}$Bx. Among the eight samples tested, rice wine prepared with malt showed the highest level of coloring degree, UV absorbance, and reducing sugar levels, while rice wine prepared with potato showed the lowest value. Organic acid contents of rice wines prepared with soybean, glutinous rice, and non-glutinous rice showed the highest levels of succinic acid followed by acetic acid, citric acid, malic acid, and pyroglutamic acid. Free sugar contents of all rice wines showed the higher levels of glucose followed by fructose and maltose. Rice wines prepared with unpolished rice and corn showed the same highest overall sensory preference. By descriptive analysis, the overall mean sensory intensities of samples prepared with glutinous rice and non-glutinous rice, showed similar levels of 'sweetness', 'fruitiness', and 'freshness of aroma', while those samples prepared with soybean, glutinous millet, and potato showed stronger intensities of 'nuruk', 'grain aroma', and 'yellowness'. Rice wine prepared with corn showed middle ranges in all sensory attributes tested.

첨가원료의 종류가 술에 미치는 영향을 조사하기 위해 고문헌에서 보여지는 원료로 맥아, 옥수수, 감자, 콩, 차조, 현미, 찹쌀 그리고 멥쌀을 2단 담금 쌀 양의 30%(w/w)로 첨가원료 곡물을 달리하여 발효주를 제조하여 이화학적 특성과 관능특성을 비교하였다. 16일간 발효 후 최종 알코올 함량은 맥아와 찹쌀이 16.2%로 가장 높았고 pH는 4.14-4.57, 총산은 0.27-0.32% 수준으로 나타났으며 아미노산은 맥아가 0.36$\pm$0.02%로 가장 높게 감자가 0.18$\pm$0.01%로 가장 낮게 나타났다. 당도는 맥아가 11.1로 가장 높아 고형분 함량이 가장 많음을 나타냈고 감자가 8.35로 고형분 함량이 가장 낮은 것으로 나타났다. 착색도, 자외부흡수, 환원당은 모두 맥아를 첨가한 술에서 가장 높게 나타났고 감자를 첨가한 술에서 가장 낮게 나타나 원료에 따른 뚜렷한 차이를 알 수 있었으며 색도에서 명도는 맥아가 74.44로 가장 어둡게 나타났고 반대로 적색도는 맥아가 9.26로 가장 높게 나타났으며 황색도 또한 맥아가 33.46으로 가장 높게 나타났고 찹쌀이 10.98로 가장 낮게 나타났다. 유기산은 맥아, 차조 그리고 현미는 acetic acid>succinic acid>malic acid>citric acid>pyroglutamic acid, 옥수수와 감자는 citric acid>succinic acid>acetic acid>malic acid>pyroglutamic acid, 콩은 succinic acid>citric acid>acetic acid>malic acid>pyroglutamic acid, 찹쌀과 멥쌀은 succinic acid>acetic acid>citric acid>malic acid> pyroglutamic acid 순으로 나타났고 유리당은 모든 술에서 glucose>fructose>maltose 순으로 나타났다. 묘사분석 결과 찹쌀과 멥쌀은 전반적인 관능특성에서 단 향, 과일 향, 상쾌한 향이 높은 특성을 나타내어 유사한 관능특성을 보였고 반면 콩, 차조, 감자는 누룩 향, 구수한 향, 황색도가 강한 특성을 나타냈으며 옥수수는 전반적으로 각 특성이 강하지 않고 중간 정도 수준을 나타냈다. 전체적인 기호도는 현미와 옥수수가 6.0으로 가장 높았고 다음으로 찹쌀과 차조순서로 나타났으며 우리나라 전통주의 기본원료인 멥쌀과 이화학적 특성을 비교한 결과 기호도가 높게 나타난 옥수수와 현미가 첨가된 술의 아미노산도가 0.19-0.21$\pm$0.03%로 나타나 멥쌀 0.27$\pm$0.01%보다 0.07% 낮게 나타났고 유기산에서 acetic acid 함량이 옥수수는 1.06$\pm$0.35 mg/mL인데 반해 멥쌀은 2.97$\pm$0.50 mg/mL로 높게 나타났으며 유리당에서 fructose 함량이 멥쌀은 0.14$\pm$0.11 mg/mL인데 반해 옥수수와 현미는 0.34, 0.35$\pm$0.05 mg/mL로 0.2 mg/mL 정도 높게 나타난 것을 알 수 있었다.
