RU2389261C1 - Method for production of flavoured coffee drink on basis of yacon - Google Patents

Abstract

FIELD: food industry.

SUBSTANCE: method provides for preparation of formula components. Cardamom is extracted with liquid nitrogen to separate according miscella. Further yacon is cut, dried in microwave field at specified parametres of the process and fried together with grape seeds. Yacon and grape seeds are mixed. Produced mix is impregnated with separated miscella with simultaneous increase of pressure. Pressure is reduced down to atmospheric value with simultaneous freezing of mix and its cryo-grinding in the medium of released nitrogen.

EFFECT: method makes it possible to produce new flavoured coffee drink from non-traditional raw materials according to wasteless technology.

Description

The invention relates to a technology for the production of coffee substitutes.

A known method of producing a coffee beverage, which includes receiving and separating inulin-containing raw materials, roasting, crushing, grinding, sieving and mixing with other milled components (Nakhmedov F.G. Technology of coffee products. - M.: Light and food industry, 1984, p. 107 -110).

The disadvantage of this method is to obtain an insoluble drink with low organoleptic characteristics, the preparation of which is accompanied by the formation of a large amount of waste.

The technical result of the invention is to obtain a new flavored coffee drink from non-traditional raw materials using non-waste technology.

This result is achieved by the fact that the method for producing a flavored coffee drink based on an yacon involves preparing the recipe components, extracting cardamom with liquid nitrogen to separate the corresponding miscella, cutting the yacon, drying it in a microwave field to a residual moisture content of about 20% with a microwave field power that provides heating of the yacon to a temperature inside the pieces of 80-90 ° C, for at least 1 hour and frying, frying the grape seeds, mixing the yacon and grape seeds in a ratio by weight of 7: 3, impregnating the resulting impurity separated miscella with simultaneous increase of the pressure drop to atmospheric pressure with simultaneous freezing mixture and cryogrinding among evolved nitrogen.

The method is implemented as follows.

Prescription components are prepared according to traditional technology.

Cardamom is extracted with liquid nitrogen and miscella is separated according to traditional technology (Kasyanov G.I., Kvasenkov O.I., Nematullaev I., Nesterov V.V. Processing plant materials with liquefied and compressed gases. - M.: AgroNIITEIPP, 1993 - 40 s. .).

The prepared yacon is cut and dried in the microwave field to a residual moisture content of about 20% for at least 1 hour. Moreover, according to well-known dependencies (Gubiev YK Scientific and practical principles of thermotechnological processes of food production in the electromagnetic field of the microwave. Abstract of the dissertation of the Doctor of Technical Sciences - M .: MTIPP, 1990, pp. 7-11) calculate the power microwave fields, allowing for the drying time of the icon 1 hour and heating to a temperature inside pieces of 80 and 90 ° C. The microwave field power is set greater than or equal to the second value and less than or equal to the smaller of the first and third values of the calculated powers.

Drying in the microwave field at temperatures above 90 ° C leads to premature caramelization of sugars. Drying in the microwave field at a raw material temperature below 80 ° C and a reduction in drying time of less than 1 hour lead to a deterioration in the recoverability of the target product. Since the increase in the drying time automatically leads to an increase in the specific energy consumption, the maximum value of the drying time of each type of raw material is determined by the Harrington desirability function for the maximum dispersing ability of the target product with minimal specific energy consumption.

Then, the yakon and grape seeds are fried according to traditional technology, jointly loaded into the drum of a cryomill in a weight ratio of 7: 3 and poured to impregnate the separated miscella. The pressure in the drum automatically rises to a value corresponding to the pressure of saturated nitrogen vapor at the impregnation temperature. Impregnation time is calculated according to the known laws of mass transfer (Kosmodemyansky Yu.V. Processes and apparatuses of food production. A textbook for students of technical schools. - M .: Kolos, 1997, p.135-162). In this case, nitrogen is absorbed and the mixture is saturated with the aromatic substances contained in miscella.

After the impregnation is completed, the pressure in the drum is vented to atmospheric pressure, which ensures evaporation of nitrogen and freezing of the mixture, and then cryo-grinding of the mixture in the medium of nitrogen released produces the target product.

The product obtained by the described technology is instant powder with dispersing ability, determined by the modified method of VNIMI (Derney J. Production of instant products. - M.: Light and food industry, 1983, pp. 11-12), about 85% . When brewed, a cloudy brown drink forms with a taste and aroma similar to flavored coffee.

Thus, the proposed method allows to obtain a new flavored coffee drink from non-traditional raw materials using non-waste technology.
