Experience with the application of soviet enzymatic preparations in brewing.Peer-reviewed article

K. SVOZIL

Many mixed soviet preparations with a various quantity of the individual active compounds of amylases, proteases and beta-glucanases were tested. At the end of these experiments the MEK II preparation was tested on a pilot-plant scale. In comparison with the other foreign preparates, e.g. - Brew-N-zyme GPG-L and Ceremix-L a good efficiency of the Soviet preparation was found. On a base of these results the MEK II preparation was compared with the Brew-N-zyme GPG-L preparation on a plant-scale in five Slovak breweries. In these experiments 30-40 % of malt was replaced by non-malted barley. From an evaluation of results in was found that, from the statistical standpoint, the efficiency of both the recommended to buy the MEK II preparation for further experiments and, eventually for the application in Czechoslovak brewing.
