Attenuzyme® Pro
Attenuzyme® Pro is a cost-effective solution for highly attenuated beers. It allows you to achieve a very high real degree of fermentation (RDF).
Achieve desired attenuation
This product delivers predictable and targeted real degree of fermentation (RDF). It helps you to control the percentage of fermentable sugars you derive from starch. It allows you to increase fermentable sugars or maintain them at a specific level so you can achieve your desired attenuation.
Accelerate fermentation
By releasing more fermentable sugars in the brewhouse, this product supports the need to accelerate your fermentation times.
For ultra-light beers
With the synergistic activity in this enzyme blend you can hit high attenuation targets in short reaction times. That allows you to produce ultra-light beers.
Increase brewhouse capacity
This fast-acting product shortens mashing times. That allows you to increase brewhouse capacity while saving time and energy.
Attenuzyme® Pro is a high-performing blend of glucoamylase and pullulanase. With Attenuzyme® Pro, you can hit high attenuation targets in short reaction times.
Glucoamylases break down the α-1,4-glucosidic bonds in amylase and amylopectin. Pullulanases break down α-1,6-glucosidic bonds in amylopectin. These two enzymes work synergistically to quickly hydrolyze amylopectin and amylose. That allows brewers to achieve the high attenuation targets and short reaction times ultra-light beers need.
Glucoamylases hydrolyze starch. They break α-1,4-glucosidic linkages at the non-reducing ends of amylase and amylopectin. Pullulanases also hydrolyze starch, but they're de-branching enzymes. They break down α-1,6-glucosidic bonds in amylopectin.
Glucoamylases are typically brewers' first choice when producing highly attenuated beers. Consumers know these as light or low-calorie beers.
Combined with pullulanases, glucoamylases speed up starch breakdown even more. That's why brewers use this synergistic enzyme blend in ultra-light beer production. It allows them to reach attenuation targets in even shorter conversion times.
