Form : Powder
Appearance : Off-white to Brown

Beta-Glucanase Enzyme for Improved Filtration, Viscosity Reduction & Extract Yield

High beta-glucan content in malt and grain processing can increase viscosity, reduce filtration performance, and lower extract yield. These factors can affect overall process efficiency and throughput.

Breaking down beta-glucans during mashing can help improve wort separation and support better extract release.

Natunase BG Prime is a specialized beta-glucanase enzyme developed to hydrolyse beta-glucans present in grain cell walls into smaller soluble fractions. This reduces mash viscosity and supports filtration, separation, and extract release.

The objective was to optimize the brewing process by replacing the existing enzyme and process-aid system with an alternative enzyme solution, with a focus on reducing enzyme and additive costs, shortening Total Processing Time (TPT), improving wort filtration efficiency, maintaining required wort quality and production parameters, ensuring consistent fermentation performance, and eliminating unnecessary process inputs wherever possible.

FAQ's

Can NATUNASE support brewing with different raw materials?

Yes. NATUNASE includes enzyme solutions suitable for brewing applications involving malt as well as adjunct grains such as rice and other cereals, depending on the process requirement and selected enzyme.

Why should breweries optimise their mashing process instead of increasing production time?

Improving process efficiency often delivers greater benefits than extending production time. Depending on the application, NATUNASE helps improve mash processing, filtration, extract recovery, and brewhouse throughput without requiring changes to existing brewing equipment.

When should a brewery consider using NATUNASE?

Breweries experiencing challenges related to starch processing, mash viscosity, wort separation, extract recovery, or adjunct brewing can evaluate the appropriate NATUNASE enzyme to optimise process performance.
