BioFine P19 x 1Kg

A PURIFIED ISINGLASS FININGS AGENT

Used as a processing aid to flocculate yeast and protein in the manufacture of beer. To prepare a standard finings solution, stir 1 kg of Biofine P19 into 200 litres of water at less than 10°C, with a high shear mixer. Continue stirring the solution for 15 - 30 minutes. Solution can then be used immediately. If a high shear stirrer is not available, stir or recirculate with a pump for 1 hour, allow to stand for 1 - 2 hours then stir or recirculate for a further hour. Avoid temperatures in excess of 15°C. This solution can be added immediately at a dose rate of 300 - 700 ml. per hectolitre of beer (15 - 35ppm). The optimum fining effect can be determined by varying the dose rate within this range in individual plant trials. The finings solution must be added to the beer tank in a manner which allows effective mixing with the beer. Metering into the rough beer stream as it enters the storage tank has been demonstrated to produce highly satisfactory results. Alternatively the finings contained in a stainless steel cask can be forced into the tank under CO2 pressure via the sample cock throughout the filling of the storage tank.
