【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、新規酵母及びそれを用いた清酒の製造方法に関し、詳しくは、交雑法により育種した香気生成能が高く、かつエタノール生成速度の速い性質を有する酵母及びそれを用いた清酒の製造方法に関する。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
現在、わが国の大部分の清酒製造場では(財)日本醸造協会から販売されている「きょうかい酵母」を使用しており、吟醸酒、純米酒、本醸造酒、普通酒といった清酒の種類によって酵母を使い分けている。
近年、清酒の多榛化、差別化、そして、より一層の高品質化を目的として積極的に優良酵母の分離・改良・育種が広く行われておリ、実用株の開発が進められている。特に、香りがフルーティで味の軽い吟醸酒(精米歩合60%以下で、アルコール添加は白米重量の10%以下で製造される)用酵母の研究開発が勢力的に行われている。例えば、高香気生成酵母に関しては「新規酵母及びその用途」(特許文献1)、「変異酵母」(特許文献2)、「酵母変異株およびそれを用いた酒類の製造方法」(特許文献3)等の多くの報告があり、実用化に至っている。
【0003】
近年の酵母開発事例として、薬剤耐性や変異処理により、特定の香気成分を多く生産する酵母の開発が試みられているが、ややもすれば、薬剤耐性や変異処理により本来有しているアルコール発酵能が低下し、発酵の緩慢さによる酒造適正のデメリットや高アルコール存在下である清酒醪中で酵母の自己消化が起き、清酒の雑味・オフフレーバーの原因となる場合がある。また、特定の香りが高すぎることにより、清酒の香りと味が不調和になるケースがある。

【発明が解決しようとする課題】
上記した背景の基に、本発明は、清酒の製造に用いる酵母であって、各香気成分をバランスよく生産し、かつ醪日数が必要以上に長くならないアルコール生成速度の速い酵母の育種、及び清酒の製造において、その酵母を使用し、特定の香りが高すぎて清酒の香りと味が不調和になる上記問題を解決することを目的としている。また、発酵の綬慢さに起因する作業問題を解決することを目的とする。
【0006】
【課題を解決するための手段】
本発明者は、上記の課題を解決するため、交雑法を用いて2つの酵母の優れた性質のみを有する新規清酒用酵母の育種を試みた。「きょうかい酵母」を供試株とし、香気生成能は高いがアルコール発酵能がやや緩慢な酵母と、香気生成能はあまり高くないがアルコール発酵能が高い酵母を交雑させ、得られた交雑株の中から香気生成能が高く、かつアルコール生成速度の速い酵母を選抜した。さらに、本酵母を用いて清酒を製造することにより前記の問題点を解決した。
【0007】
すなわち、請求項1記載の本発明は、清酒製造において、カプロン酸エチルを5〜10ppm生成する能力を有し、かつ醪日数(醪最高温度10℃のとき)30〜35日で日本酒度が+1〜−1の範囲となる発酵力を有するサッカロミセス・セレビシェ(Saccharomyces cerevisiae)3K8−157A株である。また、請求項2記載の本発明は、請求項1記載の酵母を用いることを特徴とする清酒の製造方法である。
【0008】
【発明の実施の形態】
本発明に係る酵母は、清酒の製造、特に吟醸酒の製造に用いられるもので、この酵母は以下に示す方法によって取得することができる。
まず、日本醸造協会から配布されている「きょうかい酵母」を入手し、交雑法を用いて2種の酵母の優れた性質のみを有する清酒用酵母の育種を試みた。すなわち、入手した6株について発酵性能を調べた後、これらの菌株から1倍体(ハプロイド)を取得し、その一部について発酵試験を行う。
その結果、交雑に用いる株として香気生成能の高い株と発酵力の強い株を選抜し、これら2種の株を用いて交雑を行い、2倍体交雑株を取得する。次いで、これらについて発酵試験を行い、香気生成能が高く、かつアルコール発酵能の高い酵母を選抜する。このようにして、両親の酵母の優れた性質のみを有する新規酵母の育種を行い、サッカロミセス・セレビシェ3K8−157A株を得た。この酵母は、香気成分の1種であるカプロン酸エチルを5ppm以上、通常5〜10ppm生成する能力を有し、かつ醪日数(醪最高温度10℃のとき)30〜35日で日本酒度が+1〜−1の範囲となる発酵能を有している。

[Prior art]
Currently, most sake breweries in Japan use “Kyokai Yeast” sold by the Japan Brewing Association, depending on the type of sake such as Ginjo, Junmai, Honjo, and Sake. We use yeast properly.
In recent years, the isolation, improvement, and breeding of excellent yeasts have been widely carried out for the purpose of increasing the number and differentiation of sake and differentiating, and further improving quality, and the development of practical strains has been promoted. . In particular, research and development of yeast for brewing sake with a fruity and light fragrance (produced with a rice polishing ratio of 60% or less and an alcohol addition of 10% or less of the weight of white rice) has been actively conducted. For example, regarding high-aroma producing yeast, “new yeast and its use” (patent document 1), “mutant yeast” (patent document 2), “yeast mutant and method for producing alcohol using the same” (patent document 3) Etc., and has been put to practical use.
[0003]
As an example of recent yeast development, attempts have been made to develop yeast that produces a large amount of specific aroma components by drug resistance and mutation treatment. However, there are cases in which the disadvantages of sake brewing due to the slow fermentation and the self-digestion of yeast occur in sake lees in the presence of high alcohol, which may cause miscellaneous taste and off-flavor of sake. In addition, there is a case where the aroma and taste of sake are incongruent because the specific aroma is too high.

Subsequently, a fermentation test is performed on these, and yeast having a high aroma generating ability and a high alcohol fermenting ability is selected. Thus, breeding of a new yeast having only the superior properties of the yeast of the parents was carried out to obtain a Saccharomyces cerevisiae 3K8-157A strain. This yeast has the ability to produce 5 ppm or more of ethyl caproate, which is one of the aromatic components, usually 5 to 10 ppm, and has a sake degree of +1 in 30 to 35 days (when the maximum temperature is 10 ° C.). It has a fermentation ability in the range of −1.
This yeast is a yeast whose parents are “Kyokai Yeast” K1001 and “Kyokai Yeast” K1601. This yeast has been deposited at the Patent Organism Depositary, National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology, and its deposit number is FERM P-19141.
The production of sake using this yeast may be carried out according to the usual method for producing sake. In particular, in order to exhibit the characteristics of this yeast, it is suitable for the production of ginjo sake having a rice polishing ratio of 60% or less, preferably 50% to 40%, and the fermentation method has a maximum koji temperature of 12 ° C. or less, preferably 9 to A three-stage charge at 11 ° C. is appropriate. The amount of alcohol added is preferably 10% by weight or less of white rice. When this yeast is used, in the case of ginjo sake production, the upper tank can be formed within 35 days, usually about 30 to 35 days.

Example 4
The 3K8 strain selected in Example 3 was cultured in 5 ml of koji extract liquid medium (Baume degree 6) at 30 ° C. for 2 days, appropriately diluted, plated on YPD medium, cultured at 30 ° C. for 2 days, 200 single colonies were obtained, and the same fermentation test as in Example 1 was performed on each medium using the alcohol-dehydrated koji. From the test results, 5 strains with high acid-producing ability were selected.
Next, about these 5 strains, ethanol production amount, aroma component production amount, acid production amount and amino acid production amount were measured and compared. As a result, one strain (3K8-157A strain) having higher acid productivity than 3K8 strain was obtained. Selected. This yeast has been deposited with the Patent Organism Depositary as FERM P-19141. The result of the fermentation test is shown in FIG.
[0019]
Example 5
For 5 strains selected in Example 4 with high acid-producing ability, 3K8 parent strain and Kyokai K1501 yeast as a control, sake (Ginjo) was prepared with a small amount of 1Kg total rice (Yamada Nishiki, 45% rice polishing rate).
