Description

Tea extract extraction method

The present invention relates to a method for extracting a quality essence by utilizing biotechnology for saccharification, and more particularly to a method for fermenting tea leaves to obtain tea essence.

Enzymes participate in all reactions in the body. If there is no enzyme, all reactions in the human body will stop functioning. For the digestion, absorption and decomposition of food, enzymes are needed. Except for enzymes, enzymes also have the function of repairing cells. Killing the virus, it provides the body's cellular nutrients, allowing the damaged cells to get more nutrients, so that they can repair themselves and restore their health.

When the body is deficient in enzymes or undernutrition, the constitution will become susceptible to infection. Usually, the body will not feel uncomfortable when it is balanced, and it will not notice any abnormalities in the body. However, if the body enzyme is insufficient, it will easily lead to disease.

Natural ingredients are very rich in nutrients. However, sometimes due to poor eating habits and insufficient enzymes in the body, the body cannot completely convert large molecules in food into small molecules, leading to the human body. The absorption utilization rate is thus reduced.

Therefore, it is necessary to convert macronutrients into small molecules by microbial fermentation treatment, thereby effectively improving the absorption and utilization rate of the human body.

Accordingly, it is an object of the present invention to provide an extraction method of tea essence to solve the above problems.

According to one aspect of the present invention, the present invention discloses a method for extracting tea essence, which comprises the steps of: adding a yeast species and tea leaves which can ferment tea leaves into a sealed container; controlling the sealed container Ambient temperature The yeast species is subjected to one of the optimum temperature ranges for saccharification so that the yeast begins to ferment the tea leaves; when the mannan is produced in the sealed container, the contents of the container are transferred to a reverse osmosis filtration system. Filtration is carried out in the middle; and the pale yellow liquid obtained after the filtration is dehydrated to produce a dried tea essence powder.

Compared with traditionally brewing tea leaves through hot water to obtain tea essence, the present invention can directly convert macromolecular nutrients in tea into small molecules, and extract small molecule drinking hormone into a higher purity powder, Effectively improve the absorption rate of the human body.

Certain terms are used throughout the description and following claims to refer to particular elements. It should be understood by those of ordinary skill in the art that hardware manufacturers may refer to the same elements by different nouns. This specification and subsequent patent applications do not The difference in name is used as a means of distinguishing between components, but as a criterion for distinguishing between functional differences of components. The term "including" as used throughout the specification and subsequent claims is an open term and should be interpreted as "including but not limited to".

Please refer to FIG. 1 , which is a flow chart of an embodiment of the extraction method of the tea essence of the present invention, including but not limited to the following steps (note that if substantially the same result is obtained, These steps do not have to be performed in the order of execution shown in Figure 1):

Step S100: adding one yeast species and tea leaves which can ferment the tea leaves into a sealed container.

Step S110: controlling the ambient temperature in the sealed container, the yeast species is subjected to one of the optimum temperature ranges for saccharification, so that the yeast starts to ferment the tea leaves.

Step S120: When mannan is produced in the sealed container, the substance in the container is transferred to a reverse osmosis filtration system for filtration.

Step S130: Dehydrating the pale yellow liquid obtained after the filtration to produce a dried tea essence powder.

In step S100, the yeast species used have a specific correspondence with the tea leaves, in other words, in an anoxic state, the yeast species can normally ferment the tea leaves in a suitable temperature range. effect.

In step S110, the yeast species saccharifies the tea leaves into an anoxic respiration effect, wherein the glucose in the tea leaves is converted into pyruvic acid by glycolysis, and then the pyruvic acid is decarburized to remove the carbon. atoms, acetaldehyde, while at the same CO.'s _2, and then acetaldehyde is produced in glycolysis ₂ NADH reduced to ethanol and produce energy ATP.

In step S120, the produced mannan is one of the constituent components of the cell wall of the yeast, and when the mannan has been visualized, it means that the fermentation has been fermented and decomposed by the tea. At this point, most of the tea extract has been broken down into small molecules, so the contents of the sealed container should be transferred to a reverse osmosis filtration system for filtration.

In step S130, the light yellow liquid is the tea essence, and the pale yellow tea essence is further dehydrated to obtain a dried tea essence powder.

Please refer to FIG. 2, which is a flow chart of an embodiment of a method for cultivating a yeast species capable of fermenting tea leaves, which comprises, but is not limited to, the following steps (please note that if substantial is available) With the same result, these steps are not necessarily performed in accordance with the execution order shown in Figure 2):

Step S200: placing the yeast strain which can ferment the tea leaves into a culture tank.

Step S210: Controlling the ambient temperature in the incubation tank to be within an optimum growth temperature range of one of the yeast species.

Step S220: After a predetermined period of time, impurities other than the yeast species in the incubation tank are filtered.

In step S200, some sugar is added to the incubation tank to serve as a culture substrate for the yeast species. This yeast species can be decomposed to obtain the nutrients needed for growth.

In step S210, the incubation tank is not sealed, so it is necessary to control the ambient temperature in the incubation tank to a temperature range most suitable for the growth of the yeast species.

In step S220, the predetermined time is determined by how much sugar is added. And how many yeast species are expected to be cultivated. After the culture target is reached, the material in the incubation tank can be transferred to a filtration system to filter out impurities other than the yeast species.

It is to be understood that the above description is only for the purpose of illustration and not as a limitation of the invention, and the subject matter of the invention Adjustments are all within the scope of the invention. For example, please refer to FIG. 3, which is a flow chart of another embodiment of the method for extracting tea essence of the present invention, including but not limited to the steps described in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 ( Please note that if substantially the same result is obtained, these steps are not necessarily performed in accordance with the execution order shown in Figure 3):

Step S200: placing the yeast strain which can ferment the tea leaves into a culture tank.

Step S210: Controlling the ambient temperature in the incubation tank to be within an optimum growth temperature range of one of the yeast species.

Step S220: After a predetermined period of time, impurities other than the yeast species in the incubation tank are filtered.

Step S300: adding the yeast species and the tea leaves obtained by filtration to a sealed container.

Step S110: controlling the ambient temperature in the sealed container, the yeast species is subjected to one of the optimum temperature ranges for saccharification, so that the yeast starts to ferment the tea leaves.

Step S120: When mannan is produced in the sealed container, the substance in the container is transferred to a reverse osmosis filtration system for filtration.

Step S130: Dehydrating the pale yellow liquid obtained after the filtration to produce a dried tea essence powder.

In summary, the present invention can convert the macromolecular nutrients in the tea into small molecule tea essences. The invention improves the tea essence by filtering and dehydrating and extracting into a dry powder which is beneficial to the human body for convenient use.
