FermCap AT
FermCap AT is a unique emulsion of an extremely effective surface active agent Dimethylpolysiloxane which prevents foam formation by reducing surface tension.
FermCap AT is classified as a "Process Aid" because of its novel feature of being completely removed from the beer under normal processing conditions. It is adsorbed onto the surface of the yeast, vessel walls and filter media.

Analytical techniques accurate to 0.005 ppm cannot detect FermCap AT in finished beer.

Application

FermCap S
FermCap S is a unique emulsion of an extremely effective surface active agent Dimethylpolysiloxane which prevents foam formation by reducing surface tension. It is used to control foam in kettle and during fermentation. It is completely removed from the beer after fermentation by the yeast and filtration. As a result of preserving hydrophobic beer proteins in solution it actually improves beer foam retention in the finished beer.

Application

Biofoam K
Biofoam K is the trade name for a specially prepared food grade Propylene Glycol Alginate for use in the brewing industry. Biofoam is the propylene glycol ester of Alginic acid which is a linear polymer of 1-4Beta D-Mannuronic acid and 1-4Alpha L-Guluronic acid residues extracted from marine brown algae (Phaeophycaeae).

Application

Biofoam CL
Biofoam CL is the trade name for a specially prepared food grade natural foaming agent for use in the brewing and beverage industry. Biofoam CL is a complex compound produced by the controlled hydrolysis of cereal and yeast proteins that are used in brewing. It is specifically designed to enhance and stabilize the foam in beer and beverages.
