Pectinase for Craft Brewing

ART-EN-055 is an industrial pectinase preparation selected for brewing and beverage processing workflows where fruit puree, juice, peel, or high-pectin adjuncts are used. Pectin is a structural polysaccharide found in apple, citrus, berry, stone fruit, and many tropical fruits. In brewing, residual pectin can bind water, increase viscosity, reduce press or filter throughput, and generate stable colloidal haze that is not fully addressed by standard kettle fining or cold conditioning. Pectinase hydrolyzes pectic substances into shorter soluble fragments, supporting clearer liquid recovery and more predictable downstream separation.

Typical specification targets for this product class include a dry, free-flowing powder or granulate, moisture not more than 8%, activity declared on the batch CoA, and usable performance across acidic beverage conditions, commonly pH 3.0-5.5. Operational temperature is often optimized around 35-55 °C depending on contact time and substrate; brewers should validate dosage in pilot trials because fruit variety, solids load, alcohol level, sulfur dioxide carryover, and mash composition can change enzyme demand. ART-EN-055 is supplied as SKU ART-EN-055 in 25 kg multi-wall sacks for industrial handling and bulk planning.

• Fruit beer and fruited sour production: applied to fruit additions before fermentation, during fruit conditioning, or in a dedicated processing tank to reduce pectin haze and improve clarification.
• Craft brewery cellar operations: supports lower viscosity in high-fruit loads, helping pumps, screens, centrifuges, plate filters, and cartridge filters operate with more consistent pressure profiles.
• Juice and puree preparation for brewing: useful when processing apple, peach, apricot, mango, berry, citrus, or mixed fruit bases before dosing into wort, beer, or fermented beverage streams.
• R&D recipe development: enables bench-scale comparison of fruit lots, enzyme dose, contact time, and temperature before scale-up to brewhouse or cellar batches.
• Food, feed, and biotechnology processing: applicable where pectin breakdown is required for liquid extraction, viscosity reduction, or separation performance, subject to local regulatory and formulation review.

Store ART-EN-055 in the original unopened 25 kg multi-wall sack in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight, steam lines, and strong odors. Recommended storage is typically 5-25 °C with low humidity. Keep packaging tightly closed after partial use and avoid condensation, which can reduce flowability and activity retention. Under recommended conditions, typical shelf life is 12-24 months from manufacture, subject to the batch label and CoA.

As with all concentrated enzyme products, avoid generating dust and use plant-standard protective handling practices, including eye protection, gloves, and respiratory controls where airborne powder may occur. Add enzyme with good mixing to prevent localized clumping. Verify thermal inactivation or removal steps according to the brewery process and finished-product specification.

ArtemisYeast supplies ART-EN-055 for professional manufacturing environments that require traceable lots, export documentation, and specification review before purchase. A certificate of analysis can list batch number, appearance, declared enzyme activity, moisture, microbiological limits where applicable, and recommended storage. Additional documents such as allergen statement, food-grade declaration, SDS, non-GMO statement where applicable, Halal or Kosher status, and HACCP, ISO 22000, or FSSC 22000 documentation may be available on request depending on manufacturing site and lot.

Quality requirements should be confirmed before order placement, especially for breweries exporting finished beverages or operating under private-label specifications.
