Abstract:
Disclosed is a method for processing Pachyrhizus juice concentrate with good taste and stable color value, with the steps as follows: (1) pretreatment of raw materials; (2) high-temperature enzymolysis: adding the high-temperature amylase for enzymolysis 30 min at 95° C.; (3) juicing; (4) pasteurization; (5) acidity adjustment; (6) enzymolysis: adding raw materials of glucoamylase 747 ml/T pectinase 50 ml/T, activated carbon 3 kg/T, bentonite 1 kg/T to the Pachyrhizus juice after acidity adjustment; (7) secondary pasteurization: cooling to 53° C. ; (8) filtration; filtering through 0.45 um twice; (9) acidity adjustment, concentrating and cardboard filtration to obtain the finished product. The method for processing Pachyrhizus juice concentrate provided herein is proved through experiments that, the conventional method for color protection by adding VC is not applicable for Pachyrhizus juice concentrate, without adding VC, the browning during the product processing is significantly reduced, and the color value of final samples is well controlled; therefore, the method in the invention is simple, suitable for industrial production.

Abstract:
The present invention describes a method of improving the mashing process in the production of clarified juice from a plant material comprising: providing a plant material; crushing and/or chopping and/or slicing the plant material into smaller pieces; contacting the smaller pieces with a pectinase activity and a rhamnogalacturonan acetyl esterase (RGAE) activity and clarifying the juice. Further contacting the said plant material with arabinanase activity is provided. In another aspect, use of combination of pectinase activity, RGAE activity and arabinanase activity in the production of juice from a plant material is described.
