Description
本発明は、高濃度イヌリンを含有する容器詰飲料、その製造方法、及び容器詰飲料におけるイヌリン特有の雑味を抑制する方法などに関する。 The present invention relates to a packaged beverage containing a high concentration of inulin, a method for producing the same, a method for suppressing the miscellaneous taste unique to inulin in a packaged beverage, and the like.
近年、缶やペット(PET)ボトル等の容器に充填された容器詰飲料が多く開発、市販されている。このうち、カフェインなどの生理活性物質によるリフレッシュ効果を期待した飲料として、いわゆるエナジードリンクが知られている。また、古くからカフェイン含有飲料としてコーヒー飲料が知られている。 In recent years, many container-packed beverages filled in containers such as cans and PET (PET) bottles have been developed and marketed. Among these, so-called energy drinks are known as beverages that are expected to have a refreshing effect due to physiologically active substances such as caffeine. In addition, coffee drinks have been known for a long time as caffeine-containing drinks.
容器詰コーヒー飲料は、一般にコーヒー豆を焙煎し、焙煎豆に水で抽出してコーヒー抽出液を得、この抽出液を飲用濃度になるよう濃度調整を行った後、缶、ペットボトルなどの密封容器に封入して販売されている。コーヒー飲料は、香味に優れた飲料であり、かつ含有するカフェインなどの生理活性物質によるリフレッシュ効果を期待して日常生活のさまざまな場面で飲用されている。 Container-packed coffee drinks are generally roasted coffee beans, extracted with roasted beans with water to obtain a coffee extract, and after adjusting the concentration of this extract to the drinking concentration, cans, plastic bottles, etc. It is sold in sealed containers. Coffee beverages are beverages excellent in flavor and are drunk in various scenes of daily life in anticipation of a refreshing effect by physiologically active substances such as caffeine contained therein.
イヌリンは水溶性食物繊維の一種であり、整腸作用を有することが知られており、イヌリンを含む飲料に関する報告がある(特許文献1、特許文献2)。 Inulin is a kind of water-soluble dietary fiber and is known to have an intestinal regulating action, and there are reports on beverages containing inulin (Patent Document 1, Patent Document 2).
また、水溶性食物繊維として知られているポリデキストロースには酸味、苦渋みなどの呈味上の問題点があるのに対し、イヌリンには酸味、苦渋みがなく呈味を改良できることが知られている(特許文献3)。 Polydextrose, known as a water-soluble dietary fiber, has taste problems such as acidity and bitterness, whereas inulin is known to improve taste without acidity and bitterness. (Patent Document 3).
上記のとおり、イヌリンはポリデキストロースと比較して、酸味、苦渋みがなく呈味を改良できることが知られている。しかしながら、本発明者らはイヌリンを高濃度で含有する飲料を比較的大量に摂取する際にイヌリン特有の雑味を感じること、特に加熱殺菌を行うと雑味を供し飲みにくいことを見出した。 As described above, it is known that inulin can improve taste without acidity and bitterness compared to polydextrose. However, the present inventors have found that when ingesting a relatively large amount of a beverage containing inulin at a relatively large amount, the inulin has a peculiar taste, and particularly when heat sterilized, it provides a miscellaneous taste and is difficult to drink.
本発明の目的は、整腸作用を有するイヌリンを高濃度に含み、かつイヌリン特有の雑味が抑制された容器詰飲料を提供することにある。 An object of the present invention is to provide a packaged beverage containing an inulin having an intestinal regulating action at a high concentration and suppressing the miscellaneous taste unique to inulin.
本発明者らは、上記課題を解決するために、イヌリン高濃度条件においてイヌリンの雑味抑制効果を有する方法を鋭意検討し、カフェイン量を一定の範囲に制御することで、イヌリン特有の雑味を抑えることができることを見出し、本発明を完成するに至った。 In order to solve the above problems, the present inventors have intensively studied a method having an inulin miscellaneous taste suppressing effect under a high concentration of inulin, and by controlling the amount of caffeine within a certain range, The present inventors have found that the taste can be suppressed and have completed the present invention.
すなわち、これに限定されるものではないが、本発明は以下に関する。
1)イヌリンの含有量が1〜7g/100mlであり、
カフェインの含有量が1〜250mg/100mlである、
容器詰飲料。
2)イヌリンの含有量が1.5〜6.0g/100mlである、1)に記載の飲料。

It is a kind of water-soluble dietary fiber and is known to contribute to increasing bacteria beneficial to the human body in the intestine (intestinal beneficial bacteria growth promoting action). Inulin passes through the stomach and duodenum without being digested and becomes a beneficial substance for bacteria in the intestine.

The degree of polymerization is the number of saccharide units (fructose and glucose units) in inulin, and the average degree of polymerization was determined by a usual analysis method such as HPLC, GC, or HPAEC as follows. The top of the peak of the analysis result can be the average degree of polymerization. As the column, for example, ULTRON PS-80N (8 × 300 mm) manufactured by Shinwa Kako (solvent: water, flow rate: 0.5 ml / min, temperature: 50 ° C.) or TSK-GEL G3000PWXL (7.8 manufactured by TOSOH) X300 mm) (solvent; water, flow rate; 0.5 ml / min, temperature; 50 ° C.), and the degree of polymerization of the produced inulin confirmed by using a differential refractometer as the detector, for example, It can be determined by a calibration curve prepared using Olafty's Roughterin ST (average polymerization degree 11) and Roughterin HP (average polymerization degree 22), which are plant-derived inulin. The analysis of the degree of polymerization of inulin can be carried out based on the method of Loo et al. (Critical Reviews in Food Science and Nutrition, 35 (6), 525-552 (1995).

In addition, it is more preferable that the relationship between Y: caffeine content (mg / 100 ml) and X: inulin content (g / 100 ml) satisfies the relationship Y ≧ 1.8X or Y ≧ 3.6X.
上記調整工程は、そのタイミングも限定されない。例えば、上記工程を同時に行ってもよいし、別々に行ってもよいし、工程の順番を入れ替えてもよい。最終的に得られた飲料が、上記の条件を満たせばよい。 The timing of the adjustment process is not limited. For example, the above steps may be performed simultaneously, may be performed separately, or the order of the steps may be changed. The drink finally obtained should just satisfy said conditions.

イヌリンを配合したコーヒー飲料を製造し、殺菌処理した後、300ml容器に充填して容器詰コーヒー飲料を製造した。製造した容器詰コーヒー飲料のイヌリン、カフェインを測定した結果を表1に示す。ここで、イヌリンとしてはフジ日本精糖株式会社の「フジFF」を1.0〜8g/100mlとなるように添加した。 A coffee drink containing inulin was produced, sterilized, and then filled into a 300 ml container to produce a containerized coffee drink. Table 1 shows the results of measurement of inulin and caffeine in the produced packaged coffee beverages. Here, as inulin, “Fuji FF” manufactured by Fuji Nippon Seika Co., Ltd. was added at 1.0 to 8 g / 100 ml.
訓練されたパネラーにより、得られたコーヒー飲料について、イヌリンの雑味の程度、およびカフェインの香味を評点法による官能試験により評価した。専門パネリスト3名が、それらの程度を総合的に判断した:
5:イヌリンの後味の雑味を感じない
4:イヌリンの後味の雑味がほとんどない
3:イヌリンの後味の雑味がやや感じられるが飲みやすい
2:イヌリンの後味の雑味を感じるが飲める
1:イヌリンの後味の雑味は少ないが、カフェイン特有の香味が強く飲みにくい
0:イヌリンの後味の雑味が強く、飲みにくい
得られた飲料のイヌリン及びカフェインの含有量とその評価結果は、表1に記載のとおりである。
A trained panelist evaluated the degree of inulin miscibility and the caffeine flavor of the obtained coffee beverages by a sensory test using a scoring method. Three expert panelists comprehensively judged their extent:
5: I do not feel the miscellaneous aftertaste of inulin
4: There is almost no inulin aftertaste
3: A little bit of inulin aftertaste is felt, but easy to drink
2: Feel the aftertaste of inulin but drink it
1: There is little aftertaste of inulin, but the caffeine-specific flavor is strong and difficult to drink
0: Inulin's aftertaste is strong and difficult to drink
The contents of inulin and caffeine in the obtained beverage and the evaluation results are as shown in Table 1.
表1の結果より、イヌリン高濃度条件においても、カフェイン量を一定の範囲に制御することで、イヌリン特有の雑味を抑えることができるとともにコーヒー風味を向上させ、飲みやすさが増すことが判明した。 From the results of Table 1, even in high inulin conditions, controlling the amount of caffeine within a certain range can suppress the miscellaneous taste unique to inulin, improve the coffee flavor, and increase the ease of drinking. found.
