National Beer

Chapter 355

Ginseng is a plant of the Araliaceae family. The main therapeutic effect of ginseng is ginsenosides. At the same time, the monosaccharides, disaccharides, amino acids, and multipotent yeasts in ginseng are used as nitrogen sources and carbon sources, which can also increase the beer fermentation process. The intermediate product makes the beer flavor more mellow and tasteless.

"Director, do you mean to add the ginseng fermentation liquid directly to the mixed mash?" In the saccharification workshop, Qin Dong and Ouyang Qing from the technical department studied together, holding ginseng in hand, and Ouyang Qing started to smile. The deputy head of the technical section of the factory, he was sent to the second factory as the technical section chief when the second factory was established.

"Well, beating ginseng, adding water, making ginseng fermentation mash, adjusting the sugar concentration of ginseng fermentation mash, focusing on inoculating white wine yeast for fermentation, filtering, and clarification, which is the ginseng fermentation stock we want..."

The technology of ginseng beer is not complicated in Qin Dong's opinion. This technology is much simpler than extending the shelf life of beer and removing the horse urine taste of beer.

"What about the next?" Ouyang Qing asked, the pen in his hand kept recording in the notebook that although Qin Dong is the director of the factory, he is a college student, and his technical level has been affirmed by Mr. Mei Yuxiu.

"The following is the beer brewing process, there is no difference." Qin Dong smiled, "You don't even need to ask me about this, right? Gelatinize malt and rice, saccharify, filter, boil, add hops, and remove heat. The solidified substance is the mixed mash.

Then sterilize the ginseng fermentation stock solution and add it to the prepared mixed mash, and then connect it with beer yeast for pre-fermentation, post-fermentation, filtration..."

Oh, the following procedure is the beer production process. Ouyang Qing is naturally familiar with it, but is it that simple?

"It's that simple." Qin Dong smiled and walked out of the workshop. "There is still something on the construction site. I won't be leaning here, but you have to make sure that ginseng beer will be brewed before August 15."

Looking at his back and looking at the records in the notebook, Ouyang Qing said to the workshop director of the saccharification workshop, "Get ready."

...

In the main factory, each leader received a generous gift from the second factory, and each leader received five ginseng.

"Ginseng is a good thing." Although Zhou Fenghe is principled, the older he gets, the heavier his family affection. Ginseng is rare, and he can take it home to make wine for his old father.

"The second factory will have wine tomorrow," Chen Shifa walked in with a smile, "Let’s go take a look and taste his Qin Dong’s new products."

This kind of ginseng beer went directly to the production line without a pilot test, and it was very urgent. Although he reported the process plan to the main factory, Chen Shifa was still a little worried. It will be August 15 soon. This is also an important issue for the Chinese. Holidays are a good time to expand production. If the beer that comes out is unqualified, not up to standard, or has a bad taste, it will affect sales and affect the efficiency of Rong Beer.

"Don't tell me, I want to see it too. Qin Dong has many ideas." Zhou Fenghe carefully wrapped the ginseng in paper and asked, "Is there really any ginseng in his beer?"

The relationship between the two is very good. Chen Shifa is also very relaxed in front of Zhou Fenghe. He smiled, "He never puts a single ginseng in beer. Beer is not white wine, but ginseng paste."

Zhou Fenghe also laughed. He also wanted to see this new beer. After all, he had never heard of ginseng beer before, and he had never tasted it.

...

The leadership team of the main factory came to the second factory collectively. Huang Bo, the director of the factory's office, was like an enemy, and Gao Zhandong greeted the people at the factory door early.

With a smile, Chen Shifa and Zhou Fenghe led the leaders of the main factory, Zhang Qingmin, Jiao Zhenghong, Xu Zhen and others into the workshop. Luo Ling asked Huang Bo quietly, "Is there really any ginseng inside?"

"You won't know if you taste it." Huang Bo smiled and blinked. The ginseng soaked in the liquor can be seen, but the ginseng in the beer is really invisible.

Midaro was filled with fresh beer. The factory leaders all smiled and raised the glass in their hands, watching the golden liquor flow into the glass, Chen Shifa observed the liquor in the glass.Well, the wine is clear, rich in foam, white, delicate and long lasting...

The foam poured into the cup is indeed thick and fine enough, and the particle bubbles continue to rise for a long time, and the foam hanging cup is not easy to disappear.

"Qin Dong, your ginseng beer foam seems...more?" Wu Geng said, now the main factory produces the original 12% beer, the first factory produces the 11% beer, and the second factory newly developed ginseng beer. It is also eleven degrees, and there are three kinds of beer in Rong Beer.

Qin Dong smiled and picked his thumbs up. Wu Geng is eager to learn, and now he is also a beer expert.

With the addition of 10,000 to 30,000 units of ginsenoside content to the same concentration of raw malt, the strain shows obvious rejuvenation, and the aqueous solution of total saponins also has a strong and long-lasting foam response.

"Taste them all." Chen Shifa greeted.

Everyone looked at the beer in the glass carefully, but really couldn't see the ginseng, not even a single ginseng whisker.

Chen Shifa took a sip and sipped it carefully. It was cool and refreshing, and the taste seemed to be stronger.

"Well, it's delicious." Zhou Fenghe couldn't help but praised, his worries disappeared with the beer.

It seems that ginseng beer not only does not affect the flavor of the beer, on the contrary it can enhance the taste and characteristics of the beer, and solve the problem of insufficient carbon dioxide in the beer and poor foam persistence.

It was delicious indeed. Jiao Zhenghong took a few sips and looked at the cup carefully, but he couldn't find even a tiny bit of ginseng particles. "Is this really ginseng beer?" he joked.

"Of course." Seeing Qin Dong's gesture, Ouyang Qing explained with a smile, "Ginseng is crushed and beaten, water is added to make ginseng fermented mash..."

Everyone actually understands that ginseng has long been fermented and there is no trace of it.

"Then add ginseng, how much does your beer cost for a bottle?" Wu Geng asked with a smile. It turned out that a bottle of Rong Beer was a dollar and a quarter. Later, after the second factory removed the smell of horse urine, each bottle of beer was offered. The dime is a quarter of a dollar and a bottle. It was reported to the Price Bureau, and the Price Bureau agreed.

"This number." Qin Dong stretched out five fingers and shook in front of Wu Geng.

"One piece and five?" Luo Ling smiled first.Qin Beer hasn't sold a bottle of 51.

"Not one and five, but five!" Qin Dong shook his five fingers again.

Five yuan?

Luo Ling's smile froze on her face, but it immediately bloomed again. President Qin really dared to think that if ginseng was added to the beer, he dared to sell a bottle of five yuan!

Chen Shifa looked at Qin Dong, and Zhou Fenghe was looking at Qin Dong. "Oh—" Zhou Fenghe couldn't help it. "Qin Dong, how many ginsengs are in your bottle of beer?"

"Well..." To be honest, Qin Dong hadn't calculated it, but he also knew that Zhou Fenghe was calculating his production cost.

"Let's put it this way, Secretary Zhou, I plan to use this wagon of ginseng for half a year."

cough--

Zhou Fenghe couldn't help coughing again, he suddenly thought of two words-profiteer!
