This is a 4oz bottle of DuPont Danisco Diazyme 4, a liquid Beta glucoamylase capable of completely breaking down starch and dextrins in the mash or fermenter into glucose for the production of low carbohydrate, light beers, specialty beers, whiskey, vodka and moonshine. Diazyme 4 works at 140f and below. You can use it in the fermenter! More aggressive than Bioferm L. or our Alpha Amylase Enzyme powder. Diazyme is a debranching enzyme so it DOES break down the Alpha 1-6 and 1-4 bonds. Advantage over Amylase Enzyme is that this works at fermentation temperatures and converts 100% of starches to fermentable sugar. Increases runoff from grain and corn mash. AG-300 is something special that can convert 100% of the maltose sugars to glucose which would make all of the sugars fermentable by the yeast. Diazyme should be added while the wort is cooling but not until the temp drops below 140f. Diazyme 4 operates in the most cost effective manner at fermentation temperatures. You can check it with iodine test if you get any blue it will be very light. It gets the whole job done!
