Zusammenfassung:PURPOSE:To carry out the alcoholic fermentation of raw potatoes such as sweet potato, cassava, white potato, etc. in high concentration, quickly, without steaming or boiling, by using an enzymatic process. CONSTITUTION:Raw potatoes are washed with water to remove the attached soil, immersed in a dilute acid at room temperature for several hours to disinfect the bacteria attached to the surface, and crushed to a size of preferably about 8 mesh on an average. During or after the crushing, the raw potato is treated with an enzymatic agent composed mainly of pectinendopolygalacturonase preferably at about 40 deg.C and about 4.5pH, and the liquefied potato is further treated with alpha-amylase at about >=5.4pH and 75-90 deg.C to convert the existing starch to dextrin. The product is cooled, and used as the raw material for the conventional alcoholic fermentation.
