Diacetyl, is the rancid butter off flavour commonly associated with lagers due to their colder fermentation temperatures. α-acetolactate is excreted by the yeast when synthesising valine – an essential amino acid derived from pyruvate, it is then broken down in to diacetyl which is then re absorbed by the yeast. This final step is governed by time and temperature, thus increasing production costs for brewers who are dedicated to lager production. The addition of α-acetolactate decarboxylase (ALDC) at the start of fermentation allows the direct breakdown of α-acetolactate into flavorless acetoin and prevents the formation and normal metabolism of diacetyl by the yeast cell\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBENEFITS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrevents diacetyl formation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCan prevent diacetyl due to hop creep ( if pH conditions are optimum)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGives confidence of consistent clean lager production\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReduces energy (cold maturation \/ warm diacetyl stands)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDecreases tank turn around times\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDoes not remove diacetyl if already present\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Lallemond","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55010483667243,"sku":"68007-75-AB","price":181.3,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0823\/2881\/3867\/files\/68007-75-AB_20230428_121230389_iOS-Copy.jpg?v=1786645423","url":"https:\/\/malteuropmaltingco.us\/products\/aldc-enzyme-1-kg","provider":"Malteurop Malteurop Co","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
