- Principle
Chill haze in beer results from precipitation of complexed polyphenols and proteins during cold storage. This precipitation has been shown to result from hydrogen bonding between polyphenols and the proline rich fraction of particular polypeptides. This haze develops over time and, initially, is reversible (haze disappears when temperature of beer increases). The chill haze can become permanent as the hydrogen bonding gets stronger. Brewers Clarity prevents precipitation by hydrolysing the sensitive (haze active) polypeptides. It cleaves specifically the sites where such hydrogen bonding occurs. The specificity of the enzyme ensures that no other beer parameters are affected.
- Application And Rates Of Use
Brewer’s clarity can be used with all kinds of malts and other raw materials. The product is added to cooled wort at the beginning of fermentation.
The required dose rate is determined by:
- The percentage of barley malt, raw barley and/or wheat of the total grist composition
- The specific gravity (Plato) of the wort at the beginning if fermentation
- The shelf-life required (months)
