It’s time to lift your RDF levels
Novonesis’ enzymes help you raise your Real Degree of Fermentation (RDF), enabling you to develop light/low carb beer, ultra-light/ultra-low carb beer, as well as strong beers.
Higher attenuation limit – More control, more beer
With Novonesis’ attenuation enzymes, you can increase attenuation and ultimately produce more beer with the same original alcohol by volume (ABV). In other words, you get more alcohol produced from same amount of extract.
In addition, enzymes help you manage attenuation fluctuations. You get to maintain consistent fermentability – despite raw material variability.
Enzymes also give you greater freedom to brew new kinds of beers, everything from low and ultra-low carb beers, as well as strong beer.

Achieve your attenuation target, always
As a brewer, achieving predictable attenuation is crucial. With Novonesis’ enzymes, you can do just that – hitting your attenuation target every time.
Attenuation is the degree to which sugars (i.e., glucose, maltose, maltotriose) in the wort can be fermented into alcohol. Since raw materials and the mashing process can vary, brewers struggle to achieve predictable attenuation levels.
Novonesis’ brewing enzymes help optimize your process, ensuring reliable, repeatable results in every batch.

Let’s find the right solution for you
The degree of attenuation is governed by:
- The choice of enzyme (glucoamylase, alpha-amylase, pullulanase or combination)
- Enzyme stability at various temperatures and pH
- Conversion temperature and time
Our technical experts will help you find the right solution, considering everything from the best enzyme for your needs, to the right temperatures, pH, time and more.
Case studies
From launching new beers to optimizing existing recipes and more, our customers have leveraged our solutions to stay ahead. Check out these success stories to explore how they've used our innovations to overcome challenges.
A profitable new market
An international brewer wanted to enhance profitability and enter a new market. Having already highly optimized its raw materials, the challenge was to increase RDF/attenuation to the highest possible level.
Zero-carb beer is the market’s first
A regional and international brewer wanted to launch a new product: a zero-carb beer. Despite having evaluated various processing conditions and aids, the brewer hadn’t been able to reach the targeted RDF level.
