Apex Cultures Glucoamylase Enzyme 1 Kg

Apex Cultures Glucoamylase Enzyme 1 Kg is a liquid brewing enzyme designed to create more fermentable wort by breaking down starches and dextrins into glucose that brewing yeast can readily consume. Unlike standard mash enzymes that can leave a portion of larger dextrins behind, glucoamylase hydrolyzes both alpha-1,4 and alpha-1,6 glucosidic bonds, allowing brewers to achieve greater attenuation, lower residual sugar, and a lighter, drier finished beer. This makes it especially useful for Brut and Dry IPAs, highly attenuated lagers, low carbohydrate or reduced calorie beers, and recipes containing significant amounts of adjuncts. It can also help improve utilization of available starch when greater conversion is desired. Derived from Aspergillus niger, Apex Glucoamylase gives professional and advanced homebrewers another way to control wort fermentability and final beer body through the mash rather than relying solely on yeast selection.

• Product Type: Liquid glucoamylase brewing enzyme

• Package Size: 1 Kg

• Enzyme Source: Derived from Aspergillus niger

• Enzyme Activity: 375 U/g

• Primary Function: Converts starches and dextrins into highly fermentable glucose

• Attenuation: Helps achieve higher apparent attenuation and lower residual sugar

• Beer Character: Useful for producing lighter bodied, crisp, and exceptionally dry beers

• Ideal Styles: Dry/Brut IPA, highly attenuated lager, low carbohydrate and reduced calorie beer

• Adjunct Brewing: Helps improve starch utilization when working with adjunct heavy grists

• Process Benefit: Gives brewers greater control over wort fermentability and final gravity

• Application: Intended for use during mashing for thorough distribution throughout the grist

• Homebrew Use: Dosage should be calculated according to the amount of grist rather than finished batch volume; verify the current manufacturer dosage before use

• Storage: Store in a cool, dry location away from heat; DO NOT FREEZE!
