Recommended for the production of very high attenuating beers even for Very High Gravity fermentation, such as “Barley Wine”.
HA-18 contains glucoamylase from the aspergillus niger. During the fermentation, this enzyme converts remaining higher sugars and dextrines to simple sugars. The attenuation can reach as high as 100%! Can not be reused with the same results.
Able to reach 18% v/v of ethanol, depending on the process and the substrate.
Very good resistance to the osmotic pressure and high fermentation temperatures (thermotolerant yeast).
Attenuation: high
Alcohol tolerance: 18 %
Flocculation: low
