Problems solved by technology

The processing method adopted by a few countries such as Europe and the United States is supercritical extraction. The processing equipment required by this method is very expensive, the process is complicated, and the processing cost is high.
At the same time, in the process of decaffeination, some organic solvents must be added, which poses a safety hazard to food quality.

Embodiment 1

[0015] (1) Picking of fresh leaves: pick the fresh leaves of tea tree varieties suitable for black tea with one bud and three leaves as raw materials; at the same time, pick and collect young tea tree fruits and tender stems. Adopt two kinds of treatment A, B (control), A enters step (2), B enters step (5) directly.

[0016] (2) Decaffeination treatment of fresh leaves: decaffeination of fresh tea leaves by immersion and rinsing method with gradient cooling in hot water, that is, the fresh leaves of tea trees are uniformly mixed with hot water in a certain proportion (tea water ratio 1:15), combined with heating, so that the leaves after mixing Keep the temperature at 95°C for 30 seconds, then quickly immerse the tea leaves in an appropriate amount of warm water at 60°C, keep for 30 minutes, then remove the fresh leaves and rinse with cold water to complete the decaffeination step.

[0017] (3) Dehydration and dehumidification: The decaffeinated fresh leaves are filtered throu...

Embodiment 2

[0027] (1) Picking of fresh leaves: picking fresh leaves of tea tree varieties suitable for black tea with one bud and two leaves as raw materials; using two treatments C and D (control), C enters step (2), and D directly enters step (5).

[0028] (2) Decaffeination treatment of fresh leaves: decaffeination with hot water gradient cooling dipping and rinsing method, that is, the fresh leaves of tea trees are evenly mixed with hot water at a ratio of 1:10, combined with heating, so that the temperature of the leaf water after mixing is 85°C, Keep it for 300 seconds, then quickly immerse the tea leaves in loose warm water at 50°C, keep it for 15 minutes, take out the fresh leaves and shower with cold water to complete the decaffeination step.

[0029] (3) Dehydration and dehumidification: The decaffeinated fresh leaves are filtered through a vibrating tank and dehydrated by a centrifuge to remove water on the surface of the buds and leaves. The centrifuge rotates at 1000 rpm and ...

Abstract

The invention discloses a low-caffeine red crushed tea, which belongs to the technical field of tea preparation. The preparation steps of the low-caffeine black crushed tea of ​​the present invention are as follows: fresh raw materials are decaffeinated, dehumidified, kneaded and cut, fermented and dried; wherein the fresh raw materials are fresh leaves of tea trees; Add fresh leaves of tea tree into hot water at 80-95°C for 30-300 seconds, then quickly immerse the tea leaves in warm water, keep at 50-75°C for 3-30 minutes, then take out the fresh leaves and rinse with cold water. During fermentation, after decaffeination treatment, tea leaves and fresh leaves are evenly mixed and chopped according to a certain ratio, and then fermented. The caffeine of the black crushed tea of ​​the present invention is less than 1%, and the retention rate of other main functional components is more than 90%. It has a soft, sweet and mellow aroma. , suitable for clear drinking, the soup is red, thick and bright, and the tea soup is not cloudy after cooling. It is suitable for iced black tea and suitable for caffeine-sensitive people. It has broad domestic and foreign market prospects.
