Brewtan B is a natural tannic acid specifically developed for the brewing industry to enhance beer's flavor stability, shelf life, and clarity. Derived from renewable plant materials, it interacts with wort proteins to improve the overall quality of the final product.

Key Benefits of Brewtan B:

1. Improved Flavor Stability:

   • Brewtan B binds with proline- and thiol-containing proteins in the wort, which are precursors to oxidation reactions. By removing these proteins, it inhibits lipid and protein oxidation, thereby preserving the beer's intended flavor profile over time.

2. Enhanced Shelf Life:

   • By reducing oxidative reactions, Brewtan B extends the beer's freshness, allowing it to maintain its quality during storage and distribution.

3. Increased Colloidal Stability:

   • The interaction between Brewtan B and haze-forming proteins leads to their precipitation and removal, resulting in improved clarity and stability of the beer.

4. Improved Lautering Efficiency:

   • When added during the mash, Brewtan B can enhance the lautering process, leading to better wort separation and yield.

Usage Guidelines:

• Dosage Rates:

  • In the Mash: 8 grams per barrel of mash liquor (approximately 0.27 grams per gallon).
  • In the Boil: 5 grams per barrel of wort (approximately 0.18 grams per gallon).

• Application Method:

  • Dissolve the appropriate amount of Brewtan B in warm, sterile water to create a solution.
  • For Mash Addition: Add the solution to the mash water prior to dough-in.
  • For Boil Addition: Introduce the solution 0-5 minutes before the end of the boil.

Compatibility with Other Brewing Additives:

• When using kettle finings like Whirlfloc or Irish Moss, it's recommended to add Brewtan B before these finings to ensure optimal performance of both agents.

Storage Stability:

• Store Brewtan B in an airtight container at ambient temperature. The product remains stable for up to one year under these conditions.

Incorporating Brewtan B into the brewing process can lead to a more stable, flavorful, and visually appealing beer, enhancing the overall drinking experience.
