Perfect for home alcohol production from starchy substrates, Still Spirits Glucoamylase Enzyme is ideal for fermenting raw grains and potatoes, and for maximizing yield from malted grains using their natural diastatic enzymatic activity.
? What It Is
Glucoamylase is a fungal-derived enzyme designed to break down short-chain dextrins into simple, fermentable sugars, improving fermentation efficiency. Can be used:
-
Post-mash (after starch liquefaction)
-
Together with yeast for simultaneous saccharification and fermentation
