The invention relates to a granular
green tea processing method through the combination of
microwave drying of first-step
roasting leaves and double-pot tea
curling machine shaping, and belongs to the technical field of tea
processing. The granular
green tea processing method comprises the following processing steps: spreading of fresh tea leaves; deactivation; spreading for cooling; rolling;
drying of first-step
roasting leaves; shaping; spreading for cooling;
drying;
fragrance extraction. According to the granular
green tea processing method through the combination of
microwave drying of the first-step
roasting leaves and double-pot tea
curling machine shaping, the design is reasonable, and a good foundation is provided for the subsequent steps of drying of the first-step roasting leaves and shaping by reasonably restricting the conditions of spreading, deactivating, spreading for cooling and rolling;
microwave heating is utilized for completing the working procedure of drying of the first-step roasting leaves, so that the
water content of first-step roasting leaves is easily adjusted and controlled, the color is relatively green, and cooling treatment is not needed, so that the shaping can be directly performed; a double-pot tea
curling machine is utilized for shaping, so that the shaping time is short, and the quality of a final tea product is excellent. Experiment results show that leaves collected by machines are suitable for being processed into granular green tea by adopting the granular green tea processing method provided by the invention, and the granular green tea is attractive in appearance, fresh in fragrance and pure in
mouthfeel, and is popular among green tea consumers.
