Still Spirits Distiller's Enzyme Glucoamylase is a fungal-derived powdered enzyme that breaks short-chain dextrins in a starch mash down into simple, fermentable sugars. Use it after mashing, or add it with the yeast to convert and ferment at the same time.
Specs
- Pack size: 12 g
- Treats up to 7.5 kg of liquefied starch for up to 25 L of fermentation
- Ingredients: dextrose monohydrate, glucoamylase enzyme
How to use
- After mashing: add to the liquefied starch slurry or malted grain mash at or below 65°C, stir well, cover and leave for 1 hour, then cool for fermentation.
