IFF Distilling Enzymes Reduce Cost, Increase Yields, Improve Efficiencies
Enzymes are used by distillers to improve process efficiency, increase alcohol yield, enhance fermentation, and to maintain overall quality and ensure brand consistency. With enzymes, distillers can make use of locally produced grains and alternative raw materials to create unique, single-grain and alternative spirits. These enzyme activities are offered by Gusmer as IFF enzymes. • Reduce mash viscosity and increase extract • Produce more fermentable sugars and assure consistency even with varying raw material • Reduce cost, waste, and energy consumption • Accelerate production and consistently achieve high-quality spirits
IFF liquid enzymes are available in a variety of pack sizes, ranging from jerricans to IBC totes. Contact your Gusmer representative for availability and lead times.
Enzymes are proteins that act as catalysts to promote chemical reactions. Very small amounts can cause a significant, but specific change in large amounts of material. Enzymes act more slowly at lower temperatures and are permanently denatured by high temperatures. Process temperature, pH, and enzyme additions must be controlled for optimum results.
Viscosity Reduction Enzyme activities such as cellulase, beta-glucanase, xylanase, and arabinase break down the non-starch polysaccharides to release more starch for conversion and reduce mash viscosity. Add during the pre-treatment step.
LAMINEX ® C2K
BEST IN CLASS
Watch LAMINEX ® C2K At Work! LAMINEX ® C2K reduces viscosity on high rye mashes.
β-glucanase, cellulase & arabinoxylanase • Reduce viscosity during pre-treatment step • Improve energy efficiency and throughput • Great for high rye inclusions to prevent dough balling • Recommended for barley, oats, and mixed grain bills
LAMINEX ® 750
Thermostable ß-glucanase & arabinoxylanase • Fast viscosity reduction during pre-treatment step • Allows for higher solids concentration during mashing • Recommended for wheat or corn
