Glucoamylase 400 is a GMO free food grade saccharifying glucoamylase or amyloglucosidase enzyme derived from a selected strain of Apergillus niger. It is an exoglucosidase capable of hydrolyzing both the ?-1,6 and ?-1,4 glucosidic linkages of starch, liberating single glucose units.

BENEFITS
�Maximizes the conversion of starch containing substrates to fermentable sugars.
�Minimizes residual carbohydrates.
�Provides a high degree of attenuation.

Dosage
A typical dosage of:
In the mash 0.5 � 10 kg/MT of dry grist.
In potable alcohol production 0.3 - 0.6 kg/MT of dry grist.

Glucoamylase 400 can be used to produce low calorie beers. In this application it can be added directly to the mash vessel at the mashing-in stage. Alternatively, it can be added to cooled worts after yeast pitching.
Glucoamylase 400 can also be used in the starch industy in the production of maltodextrins, glucose, and high fructose syrups.
