How did bamboo wine get into bamboo? There are different opinions on how to put bamboo wine in it. After reading the expert's answer, I feel that there are more empty things and fewer people understand the truth. The brewing technology of bamboo wine is also a trade secret. If you really want to invest in this area, you'd better learn from your teacher. You can't master the whole set of core technologies just by a few questions and answers.
As it happens, a friend of Fenger is a bamboo brewer, and he also said some basic common sense intentionally or unintentionally in the chat. Let's briefly talk about this topic.
make wine
There is not much to say about brewing. It is also skilled labor. Sorghum, wheat, corn, sweet potato, chestnut, persimmon and even figs and mulberries can be used as raw materials. See which brand you are playing and what main ingredients you can choose to brew. Of course, you can also buy homemade grain wine to fill it.
Bamboo selection
This is very important. It is necessary to choose a bamboo garden with relatively convenient transportation, vigorous bamboo growth and potential for bamboo shoots, and do a good job in preliminary preparations, such as repairing roads and cleaning up miscellaneous irrigation in the bamboo garden, so as to facilitate subsequent operations.
The material of Phyllostachys pubescens is hard, and a friend replied that it may be a fable or drilling holes in old bamboo. But the answer given by my friend is that the tender bamboo produced in those years is more rational and reasonable. Therefore, it is necessary to choose a strong mother bamboo with sprouting conditions. Once the bamboo shoot seedlings break ground and grow, we should pay attention to observation. When the young bamboo shoots are exhausted, grow to a certain stage, and are not completely lignified, healthy and strong young bamboo with moderate size is selected as the filling object.
infilling
The first step of filling depends on the growth of young bamboo, and suitable climatic conditions should be selected. The brewed wine should be transported to the mountain, and the needle should be inserted in the bamboo internodes that have not been completely lignified by drug infusion. Pull out the needle after mending, and the pinhole will heal itself in the bamboo growth project. It should be noted that a young bamboo can't be injected too much, and it needs to be injected at intervals, so I won't go into details.
choose
After filling, we should take good care of the bamboo garden, let the wine ripen in the internodes of Phyllostachys pubescens, and at the same time absorb the unique fragrance of Phyllostachys pubescens to form the unique flavor of bamboo wine.
After a certain period of maturity and integration, bamboo wine was formed. When picking, the whole bamboo is cut down, sawed along the nodes without wine, and then the nodes with wine are artistically processed to become a veritable bamboo wine.
Of course, the market does not rule out fake bamboo wine. After all, the output of bamboo wine produced by this process will be limited, so you need a pair of discerning eyes to distinguish.
The real bamboo wine is planted, usually with bamboo, the tender bamboo that has just grown and formed. Choose some good-growing, upright bamboos, use a small electric switch to make a small hole at the top of the bamboo joint, then use a special syringe to inject wine into the bamboo cavity, and then seal the small hole with wax. After several months of growth, the wound will heal slowly. This wine is not an ordinary wine, but an exclusive secret wine brewed with sorghum or corn.
After half a year or more, the wine absorbs the nutrients of bamboo in the bamboo cavity (bamboo nutrients include crude protein, crude ash, crude fat, crude fiber, various amino acids and vitamins, carotene, chlorophyll, dietary fiber, nuciferine alkaloids, organic acids, potassium, calcium, sodium, magnesium, zinc, iron, copper, phosphorus, iodine, silicon and other trace elements needed by human body.
Natural bamboo wine is yellow, like amber (in fact, it is the same color as urine). The wine has a strong bamboo fragrance, a little sweet and endless aftertaste.
Bamboo wine is actually a gimmick of merchants. Of course, wine is injected in a hidden way that people are not easy to find. Isn't wine naturally brewed in bamboo joints? ! To put it bluntly, bamboo wine is actually just a "packaging bottle". It is better to bottle wine with clean ceramics or glass than with bamboo joints that have not been disinfected and cleaned. Any plant, including bamboo, will have diseases, pests or infections during its growth, so it is unhealthy and unsafe to use it to make wine. How wine and bamboo will permeate each other to produce some chemical reactions, or whether there are beneficial or harmful ingredients, is still unknown.
Bamboo tube wine is also called bamboo tube wine and green bamboo wine, and bamboo tube is used as a container for holding drinks; Compared with most bottled wines made of glass, ceramics and other materials, the packaging style of bamboo wine gives people a bright feeling. With the increasing attention to organic green food and health care, bamboo wine was once sought after by consumers.
Friends who have seen bamboo wine may have a curiosity in their hearts: the bamboo body and bamboo film are intact. How did the wine get in? Once during the Spring Festival, I asked a friend to buy two barrels of bamboo wine, with an outer diameter of about 15 cm and a height of about 25 cm. At first glance, it is a relatively mature bamboo. The box is equipped with a small bamboo cup and a delicate wooden hammer, and the wine can be poured out by tapping the bamboo pieces gently. Bamboo barrel wine is lighter yellow than ordinary liquor, with light bamboo fragrance and more flavor. Bamboo is intact, and it can basically be ruled out that it is glued after cutting. So how did bamboo wine get into it?
Describe the general process of making bamboo wine.
As early as "Compendium of Materia Medica", there were records about the homology of bamboo medicine and food, and in ancient times, our ancestors had made tableware, tea sets and containers for food with bamboo. Bamboo wine came into being. Choose strong large bamboos, such as Phyllostachys pubescens and Lanzhu, and pour them into wine base or distiller's grains to cultivate bamboo wine. The production of bamboo wine needs to drill small holes and inject the wine base into bamboo joints during the young bamboo period and when the bamboo is crisp. During the growth of bamboo, the drill hole will be gradually repaired, and the wine will absorb bamboo juice, sugar and antioxidants in bamboo during fermentation, thus forming a unique taste.
Ⅱ. Making bamboo wine is a long process.
Making bamboo wine is not simply using bamboo as a container for holding drinks, it is a long process. After the wine enters the hole, it is necessary to prevent pests and reduce bacterial invasion, otherwise it will affect the quality of bamboo wine, and the cleanliness of the whole process is very important. After bamboo wine is sealed by bamboo growth, substances such as gas released by fermentation will react chemically with the inner wall tissue of bamboo, which also forms the unique taste and flavor of bamboo wine. With the growth of bamboo, the bamboo joints will grow taller and the outer diameter will expand, which requires re-opening holes and pouring wine base; In a word, the production of bamboo wine is an iterative process.
ⅲ. Modern production technology has optimized the traditional bamboo wine.
It is not excluded that many bamboo-tube wines on the market are not produced strictly according to the traditional bamboo-tube wine production process, which may involve excessive use of additives, blending of high-alcohol liquor, filling into bamboo tubes, and packaging and selling after special sealing treatment. Traditional bamboo wine may also become a gimmick for illegal businesses to make profits. Many consumers are not tasting authentic bamboo wine, which is the main reason why the quality of bamboo wine is questioned in the current consumer market. But modern science and technology have indeed optimized the production technology of traditional bamboo wine. For example, using minimally invasive technology to fill wine will better ensure the sanitary condition of bamboo wine.
I feel that bamboo wine is a scam. Think about it. Liquor can be put into a bamboo tube, can bamboo grow? Can you let the spirits burn to death? Unless the jar is full of water. My friend brought me two tubes when he was traveling the year before last, and kept them in the refrigerator until my friend came to have a taste. After cooking, I took out a catty of bamboo wine and drilled two small holes. It took a long time to pour out four or two glasses of wine, which was a little yellow. I tasted it carefully, but it didn't smell like wine, just a little faint. That's ridiculous. Originally, I invited my friends to drink bamboo wine, but the result was dumbfounding. I'm so disappointed. I'm just drinking with my friends.
When the bamboo is still tender, drive it in with a syringe. Bamboo also has the function of self-repair, and will soon grow out and seal the pinhole.
It's just that Uncle Yin thinks that bamboo wine is more about pursuing freshness, and how good the wine is should not be! Anyone who knows wine knows a truth: up to now, any technology that wants to age wine quickly has failed, and the quality of wine aged quickly can never be compared with that aged naturally. Good wine takes time to brew. There is no doubt that wine will be more fragrant when poured into the growing bamboo. But it is impossible to completely release phenols in wine. Bamboo can't store wine for a long time, so bamboo wine can't be real wine Alcoholics don't like it. Just try it. Yes!
We don't produce bamboo wine here, but we tasted it once with our friends. I'm also interested. I looked at it carefully before opening it. The bamboo tube of bamboo wine is really natural bamboo, without any mouth or hole, and it is all sawn bamboo joints. However, shake it, and there is indeed liquid in it. The whole set of bamboo wine is exquisite, the bamboo festival is beautifully selected, and there are 8 or 9 cups made of bamboo. There is also a small bamboo hammer. I always wondered what it was for, and thought it was a bamboo handicraft. Then, my friend tapped the bamboo joint with a bamboo hammer. As soon as the bamboo joint broke, I immediately smelled a bouquet of wine, but it was mixed with the unique fragrance of bamboo. Pour the wine into a bamboo cup, the color is light green, and the taste of bamboo is overflowing. I was very interested in how this bamboo wine was put in, so I asked my friends. He said that the specific process is a technical secret, and few people outside know it. All I know is that when bamboo is tender, the dosage is calculated according to the size of bamboo joints, and then injected in a "drip" way, and then marked. When bamboo grows, bamboo wine becomes. The output of bamboo barrel wine is small, so the price is still very expensive, but the premise is the real bamboo barrel wine.
The real live bamboo wine is to choose bamboo for about 5 years, and then inject the original pulp through minimally invasive. With the rapid growth of bamboo, it takes about 15 days to find a minimally invasive opening. Then, according to the drinking time, the bamboo is cut down and stored in the cold storage for convenient drinking.
At present, what is really good, some use one thing and one yard, and the whole process of monitoring can be traced back to ensure the quality of products. Relatively speaking, the quality is guaranteed.
Bamboo wine, fake, is a low-alcohol wine (below 45 degrees). The wine with a height of 50 degrees is fake wine, and bamboo is now canned. If wine with a height of more than 50 degrees is canned during the bamboo growth period, bamboo will die more. If the wine can reach 45 degrees, it will not meet the food standard. It is recommended not to buy bamboo wine.
Punch a hole with a hand drill, fill it with wine and seal it.
