- This high activity and high temperature enzyme (alpha-amylase enzyme) breaks down starch into dextrins during the cook process and works best at higher temps ranging from 150-190 degrees F. This product is added to the hot slurry water before or concurrently with the first grain addition during mashing.
- In addition to breaking down starch this enzyme greatly reduces viscosity, especially in thicker mashes containing high amounts of rye or other small grains. Use gluco-amylase to completely convert grain starches to fermentable sugars.
- Temperature: This product works best at higher temperatures (150-190 degree F range).
- 8 ounces- good for up to 120 gallons of mash. Suggested usage: 2 tsp. per 5 gallons mash.
