Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method of reducing the viscosity in a brewing process comprising malt and adjunct.
- Brewing processes are well known in the art. It normally involves the steps of malting, mashing, mash filtration, wort boiling, and fermentation/maturation.
- malting grains are allowed to germinate and then dried and optionally roasted.
- the malting process causes the activation of a number of enzymes in the grain which can convert the starch in the grain to sugar.
- the malt Prior to mashing, the malt is crushed to form a grist, which is mixed with water to form a mash.
- the grist may also contain one or more adjuncts.
- Mashing is the process of converting starch in the mash into fermentable and un-fermentable sugars. The mashing process is normally conducted over a period of time at various temperatures in order to activate the endogenous enzymes responsible for the degradation of proteins and carbohydrates.
- Exogenous enzymes may be added during the mashing process to speed up the reactions and enable better control over the brewing process.
- the temperature may be raised to 75-80°C.
- the resulting liquid is strained from the grains in a filtration step such as mash filtration or lautering.
- the liquid resulting from the filtration step is known as the wort.
- the wort which is rich in sugars, is then boiled with hops, cooled, and then fermented to ethanol using yeast.
- the resulting beer is conditioned for a period of a week up to several months and then packaged.
- Important non-starch polysaccharides present in cereal grains are beta-glucan and arabinoxylan.
- the cereal endosperm cell wall of various cereals comprises typically 20-75% beta- glucan, 20-75% arabinoxylan, and 5% remaining protein with a small amount of cellulose, glucomannan and phenolic acids.
- Long chains of arabinoxylans, and to a lesser degree beta- glucan, which have not been modified due to enzymatic hydrolysis, may cause formation of gels when solubilised in water, and these gels will strongly increase wort viscosity and reduce filterability.
- WO 97/42301 describes the use of alpha-L-arabinofuranosidases (GH51 and GH54) in a process for preparing a wort.

Calcium-chloride was added to de-salted water to achieve a final concentration of 60 ppm Ca 2+ -ions. After heating the water to 51 °C, the grist (room temperature) was added. When reaching a mash temperature of 50 °C, enzymes were added according to Table 2, and the mashing program (Table 1 ) was started.
- the weight of hot mash was adjusted for evaporation losses and immediately transferred to a jacket-heated (78°C) filter unit type KHS EW14/2CW, equipped with a standard polypropylene mash-filter-cloth and a connection to apply gas pressure.
- the mash was allowed to settle for 4 minutes.
- the filter was then pressurized (40 kPa over-pressure) and after a further minute, filtration was started by opening the bottom valve of the filter.
- the weight of filtrate was automatically monitored every 2 seconds until a total mass of 1050 g was reached.
- Vandenbusche et al. Vandenbusche et al. (Brewing and Beverage Industry International (3), 2004, p. 14-18) was applied.
- the filtrate (wort) was analyzed for viscosity, extract density, content of 3-glucan>10000 kDa and arabinoxylan.
- Table 2 Comparison of filtration performance of the tested enzymes and analytical data of the filtrates obtained.
- Termamyl SC and Neutrase 0.8L was used at dosage levels of 36 KNU-S/kg grist and 0.16 AU-N/kg grist, respectively in order to compensate for the reduced endogenous enzyme activities provided by malt (- use of 40% un-malted barley).

- KNU-S alpha amylase activity units
- AU-N protease activity units
- Mashes were produced from 40% barley and 60% malt and with water to grist ratio of 2.5:1.

- GH43 from Humicola insolens (SEQ ID: 1 ) with endo-1 ,4-beta-xylanase fam.
- GH10 from Aspergillus aculeatus is used instead of using the the endo-1 ,4-beta-xylanase alone.
- Un-malted barley (64 g) and Pilsner malt (96 g) were milled using a disc-mill at gap distance of 0.2 mm.
- Calcium-chloride was added to de-salted water to achieve a final concentration of 60 ppm Ca 2+ -ions.
- the grist room temperature
- enzymes were added according to Table 4 and the mashing program (Table 3) started. Water to grist ratio in mashing was 2.5: 1. After mashing, the weight of hot mash was adjusted to 600 g for evaporation losses and immediately filtered through Macherey- Nagel 5141 ⁇ 4 filter paper.
- Sweet wort was analyzed for density and diluted to 14°Plato using autoclaved, desalted water containing 60 ppm Ca 2+ -ions. Diluted wort was heated to boiling temperature and 0.145 g hops (Hallertauer tradition, 2012, 17% alpha acids) per 450 g wort added. Wort was boiled for 40 minutes and after boiling, evaporations losses were compensated by addition of autoclaved water. Yeast strain W34/70, propagated overnight was added at a concentration of 2*10 7 cells/mL wort. Fermentation was conducted at 12 °C for 7 days followed by storage of 5 days on ice.
- the beer was then de-gassed and centrifuged at 2 °C at 2000 rpm and the supernatant pre-filtered through Whatman 597 1 ' 2 filter paper in order to remove remaining yeast cells.
- 50 ml. of the pre-filtered beer was then filled into a XK26 column (GE-Healthcare) tempered to 0 °C and equipped with a 0.45 ⁇ cellulose acetate filter. After reaching the temperature equilibrium, 50 kPa pressure (N 2 ) were applied on the column.
- the mass of beer filtered over time was monitored automatically every 1 second.
- the type of filtration applied can be described as a surface filtration, which means that over filtration time, the flow rate is decreasing due to the increasing filter resistance.
- the first step to evaluate the impact of the individual enzymes, added in mashing, on beer filtration, performance was the calculation of the initial flow rate based on the monitored data.
- the parameter used to indicate beer filtration performance was obtained by extracting the mass of filtrate and the filtration time from the monitored data reached at the point where the flow rate was half of the initial flow rate. Beer, before and after filtration, was analyzed for content of ⁇ -glucan, arabinoxylan and viscosity (at 0 °C).
- Table 4 Comparison of beer filtration performance of the tested enzymes and analytical data of the un- and filtrates obtained.
- Termamyl SC and Neutrase 0.8L was used at dosage levels of 36 KNU-S/kg grist and 0,16 AU-N/kg grist, respectively in order to compensate for the reduced endogenous enzyme activities provided by malt (- use of 40% un-malted barley).
- FXU fungal xylanase activity units
- EGU endoglucanase activity units
- KNU-S alpha amylase activity units
- AU-N protease activity units.
- Beers were produced from 40% barley and 60% malt with an original gravity of 14 lato.
- Filtration performance was compared with beers produced in the same way but with the difference, that the enzyme blend added, comprised endo- 1 ,4-beta-xylanase fam.
- GH10 from Aspergillus aculeatus, endoglucanase fam.
- GH5_5 from Thermoascus aurantiacus, and a third enzyme, arabinofuranosidase fam.
- GH43 from Humicola insolens (AraFGH43).
- Table 2 demonstrates, that the use of the latter combination in mashing, improved beer filtration by ⁇ 17% (based on mass of filtrate collected after the period until initial flow rate decreased to 1/2*initial flow rate) or ⁇ 14% (based on length of period until initial flow rate decreased to 1/2 * initial flow rate).
- the better filtration has its origin in the lower viscosity enabling a faster initial flow and i.e. in the lower content of total hemicellulose (sum of ⁇ -glucan + arabinoxylan), which reduced the saturation (clocking) of the membrane filter with filtrate residue per mass unit filtrate (saturation of the membrane in the range of -63-82 mg hemicellulose).
