METHOD OF PRODUCTION OF VODKA "BUROVAYA" Russian patent published in 2006 - IPC C12G3/08 

FIELD: alcoholic beverage industry; methods of production of vodka.

SUBSTANCE: the invention is pertaining to the field of alcoholic beverage industry. From the purified ethyl alcohol "Luxe" and the corrected potable water prepare the alcohol-water solution (classification) with the purpose to produce the ready vodka of 45 % strenth. The classification solution is carefully mixed and after correction of its strength is pumped out into the pressure tank, from where it is directed onto the charcoal-purifying battery. The speed of filtration the classification through the charcoal layer of 4 m in height is up to 40 decaliters per hour for the fresh charcoal and up to 30 decaliters per hour - for the regenerated charcoal. The filtered by the charcoal-purifying battery vodka is guided in the finishing tank. The wheaten corcule flakes in amount of 0.9-1.1 kg are poured over with the an aqueous-alcoholic liquid of 50 % strength in the ratio of 1:10 and keep within 5 days, then the solution is poured out, carefully filtered and brought into the vodka in the finishing tank. Sodium bicarbonate is dissolved in the corrected water, mixed by a batch by a batch with the tartaric acid till the complete dissolution, filtered and brought into the finishing tank. The granulated sugar refined in the form of the sugar syrup with concentration of 65.8 % or in the form of the water solution is added into the classification tank or into the finishing tank. The tank content is carefully intermixed after introduction of each component and check the alcohol mixture strength. If necessary adjust and refer on filling with an obligatory post-filtration. If necessary the contents is corrected and sent for bottling with the obligatory test filtration. The consumption of the components per 1000 decaliters of the ready product is the following: a tartaric acid - 0.08-0.12 kg, sodium bicarbonate - 0,1-0,3 kg, the 65.8 %sugar syrup - 21.7-219 l, the alcohol infusion of the first drain of the wheaten corcule flakes - 6.8-7.2 l, the purified ethyl alcohol "Luxe" and the corrected potable water - the rest up to the alcohol strength of 40 %. The invention allows to reduce the duration of the process by 5-6 hours and to reduce the net cost of the vodka by 0.2 ruble/bottle. The vodka has the softer taste and the characteristic vodka flavor with the hardly perceptible trace of the frosty freshness. Its tasting index is - 9.66.

EFFECT: the invention ensures production of the vodka "Burovaya" possessing the softer taste, the characteristic vodka flavor with the hardly perceptible trace of the frosty freshness at the very high testing index, reduced labor input and power input.
