3 X lower dosing rate cuts costs and boosts sustainability
Case study: Find out how an enzyme solution enabled this brewery to lower dosing, cut costs and boost sustainability.
Brewer aimed to cut costs and boost sustainability
Production of an international brewer’s ultra-low-carb beer used a glucoamylase that required a very high dose rate. This created unnecessarily high costs – both for large amounts of the enzyme itself, as well as for packaging, transportation and storage. Additionally, it impacted its sustainability.
Attenuazyme® Core reduces costs and environmental harm
With Novonesis’ advanced glucoamylase, Attenuzyme® Core, the brewer was able to decrease the dosing rate by at least three times.
In addition to achieving the RDF targets for the specific beer more efficiently, the brewer could reduce the amount of packaging, transport, and onsite handling. This supported the brewer’s overall sustainability targets for less waste (packaging), less energy use in brewhouse operations, and a smaller CO2 footprint.

Entering a profitable new market
Challenge: For a new launch, an international brewer wanted to increase RDF/attenuation to the highest possible level.
Beer with a dairy aroma
Using dairy cultures to brew sour beers sometimes results in an undesirable aroma.
Better aroma, half the malt
Case Study: This brewery invested in dealcoholization equipment, but were not satisfied with the resulting beer shelf-life or aroma.
