Brewing β-Glucanase Powder for Enhancement of Under-Modified Malt 
Catalog Number IE-1239
Physical Form Powder
Color Light yellow
Dosage Parameters 0.01-0.06%
Source Microorganism
| Summary | The product contains mainly β-glucanase and degrades the β-glucan in malt, adjunct and wort to increase extract yield, reduce wort viscosity, help with wort filtration and brewhouse efficiency. It can be used as a malt enhancement enzyme deficient malt. |
| Description |
The β-glucanase preparation is produced through submerged fermentation using a carefully selected Trichoderma reesei strain, followed by purification, drying, and formulation. This preparation primarily contains β-glucanase, along with additional beneficial activities from cellulase, xylanase, and pentosan-degrading enzymes. β-Glucans, composed of long chains of β-1,3- and β-1,4-linked glucose molecules, are prevalent in barley, with 90% of barley β-glucans having this structure. While native β-glucanases develop during malting, their activity often diminishes during kilning due to heat instability. This preparation provides supplemental β-glucanase activity to compensate for the loss, ensuring effective β-glucan breakdown and satisfactory brewing results. |
