[0015]
Example 1
A 300 mL Kolben was charged with 120 g of an ethyl alcohol aqueous solution containing 75% ethyl alcohol (hereinafter also referred to as 75% ethyl alcohol aqueous solution) and 40 g of commercially available Munich malt, and heated at 70 ° C. for 2 hours in a warm bath with stirring. After cooling to room temperature, the raw material malt was removed by filtration to obtain 90 g of malt extract (C).
[0016]
Reference Example <Hot water extraction> To 300 mL Kolben, 42 g of Munich malt and 210 g of purified water were added, heated to 70 ° C. with stirring, and this state was continued for 2 hours. After cooling, it was filtered to obtain 150 g of a hot water extract. This extract was passed through Diaion HP-20 (manufactured by Mitsubishi Chemical Corporation), washed with water, and eluted with 80 mL of diethyl ether. This was concentrated under normal pressure to obtain 8 mg of a fragrance concentrate.
<Extraction of ethyl alcohol in water (product of the present invention)> Using 42 g of Munich malt and a 74% aqueous solution of ethyl alcohol, 95 g of extract was obtained in the same manner as in hot water extraction. The extract was diluted with 1805 g of purified water, passed through Diaion HP-20 (manufactured by Mitsubishi Chemical Corporation), and the same operation as in hot water extraction was performed to obtain 22 mg of a fragrance concentrate. The odor of this fragrance concentrate had a stronger odor than that from the hot water extract.
As described above, a clear difference was observed between the hot water extract and the fragrance concentrate of the present invention.
[0017]
Example 2
In the same manner as in Example 1, in addition to malt extract (C), malt extract (A) with 25% aqueous ethyl alcohol, malt extract (B) with 45% aqueous ethyl alcohol, and 93% aqueous ethyl alcohol A malt extract (D) was obtained. The obtained malt extracts (A) to (D) were added to a commercially available green tea beverage at 30 ppm, and two panelists evaluated the green tea beverage and obtained the following results.
Extract (A) additive: Good, but the bitterness and astringency of tea are a little worrisome.
Extract (B) additive: Excellent. In addition to the original umami of fresh green tea and a soft green scent, it has a tea swell and has the scent of a kettle.
Extract (C) additive: Excellent. In addition to the original umami of fresh green tea and a soft green scent, it has a tea swell and has the scent of a kettle.
Extract (D) -added product: The green feeling of tea is sharp and good, but the whole line tends to be thin.
[0018]
Example 3
