Comparison of physicochemical parameters, microbial community composition and flavor substances during mechanical and traditional brewing process of Jiang-flavor baijiu
摘要
Mechanized, automated and intelligent brewing is an important trend of innovation and transition in Jiang-flavor baijiu industry. In this study, physicochemical parameters, microbial community composition and flavor substances during 3rd round heap fermentation between mechanical and traditional workshop were investigated and compared based on traditional culturable methods, high-throughput sequencing technology and gas chromatography analysis. The dominant bacterial and fungal genera were consistent between the two workshops, but mechanized brewing had a significant impact on the composition of fungal communities. Rhodococcus and Monascus were special genera in mechanical workshop. The interaction relationship between physicochemical parameters and dominant microorganisms in mechanized workshop was different from traditional workshop as well. This study provided a scientific basis for further analyzing the mechanism of mechanized brewing of Jiang-flavor baijiu.
