DuPont Enzyme Makes Greater Beer Even Faster

11 Nov 2015 --- DuPont Danisco Alphalase Advance 4000 is a robust solution for brewers to reduce or completely eliminate diacetyl during beer fermentation. The enzyme keeps beer quality high while optimizing production capacity and saving on energy consumption.

DuPont Danisco Alphalase Advance 4000 solves the issue by preventing the generation of diacetyl during fermentation. With a diacetyl level that is safely below the accepted flavor threshold, brewers can shorten the maturation period considerably, obtaining a uniform maturation, optimizing production throughput and cutting down on the energy consumed in the process. 

“Extensive tests have shown that Alphalase Advance 4000 is efficient across a broad spectrum of brewing protocols and adjuncts ranging from corn and rice to sorghum and cassava,” says Iliana Yanez. “Importantly, Alphalase Advance 4000 ensures reliable diacetyl control without side effects. The essential properties of the final beer are unchanged,” Yanez added.
