Hot Rod Alpha-Amylase a-amylase (5g)

Fungal alpha-amylase available in convenient 5-gram sachets (calculated for 5 kg of grain), perfect for home production of grain distillates. The enzyme acts on gelatinized starch, breaking down α-1,4 bonds and converting it into maltodextrins, oligosaccharides, and maltose. Unlike bacterial alpha-amylase, this enzyme also acts on native starch at low temperatures, making it unique and highly effective for distillate production. Instructions for use: Heat water to 85-95°C. Add milled grain at a ratio of 1 kg per 3.5-4 liters of water. Mix thoroughly. Maintain the mixture temperature above 95°C for 1 hour, stirring constantly. After this time, allow the mash to cool to 65°C, then add the contents of this enzyme sachet and mix thoroughly again. Once the mash temperature drops to 30°C, add the yeast sachet. Leave to ferment for 2-7 days according to the yeast instructions. Our fungal alpha-amylase has a shelf life of 1 year, weighs 5g, has an optimal pH range of 5 to 6, and an activity temperature range of 30 to 70°C. Use it to produce delicious, high-quality grain distillates in the most convenient way for you!
