Get to know us

Yeast is a living organism and needs proteins to grow and multiply. This product boosts FAN levels to make more nitrogen compounds available for yeast to metabolize during fermentation. That improves the health of your yeast and ensures consistent fermentation performance.

Ensure consistent fermentations

This product hydrolyzes internal peptide bonds. This reaction supports the peptidases naturally present in cereals. That generates more FAN to increase levels in the wort.

FAN Generation

Physical stability is a key factor in beer quality. Proteins are a common cause of haze especially with high-barley-inclusion recipes. By degrading proteins, this product may improve the clarity of your beers.

Improve physical stability

FAN levels in the wort influence the formation of flavor compounds. These in turn impact the flavor of the resulting beer. If FAN levels are too high or too low, it can lead to off-flavors in your final beers. By helping you manage FAN levels, this product helps you avoid off-flavors in your final beer.

Manage flavor control

The way this product modifies theprotein matrix allows for shorter mashing times. It can also have a positive impact on wort filtration and extract yields in the brewhouse. That boosts your brewhouse capacity.

Increased brewhouse capacity

Lipoxygenase (LOX) activity can lead to stale flavor formation during malting and mashing.  LOX rapidly denatures at temperatures above 60°C. This thermostable product can break protein down at higher temperatures. That helps you avoid LOX activity during mashing for improved flavor stability.

Avoid stale off-flavors

This product's concentrated formulation allows you to reduce your number of deliveries. The result is lower handling costs and an improved sustainability profile.

Enhance sustainability claims

The enzymes in this blend work in synergy with the existing enzyme systems in your raw materials. That means you can partially replace malt with barley and/or include under-modified malts in your brews.

Partial barley and/or undermodified malt brewing

Working with high ratios of adjuncts with high gelatinizing temperatures can lead to unwanted changes in your real degree of fermentation. With a single application, this product extracts more fermentable sugars from all adjuncts. That gives you complete flexibility in the proportion of adjuncts you include, all the way up to 100%.

Benefits

FAN Boost™ Pro is an endo-protease that hydrolyzes internal peptide bonds. The result is an increase in FAN levels. This enzyme is suitable if you're using high adjunct ratios with low/no proteolytic activity. Thermo-stable FAN Boost™ Pro minimizes LOX (Lipoxygenase) activity during mashing.

Details

This product contains enzymes. While enzymes are safe to use in consumer applications, they need correct handling in working environments to ensure workers’ safety.

Indeed, repeated inhalation of enzyme dust or aerosols resulting from improper handling may induce sensitization and may cause allergic type 1 reactions in sensitized individuals.

Please follow the precautionary handling recommendations below:
