Sihazym Claro
Granulated Wine Enzyme Compound for Must Pre-Clarification
SIHAZYM Claro enzyme from Eaton’s Begerow Product Line is a pectolytic enzyme compound developed for fast and effective must pre-clarification. The high pectolytic activity based on polygalacturonase, pectinesterase, and pectinlyase promotes selective breakdown of pectins. High pectin content leads to poor mashing of grapes and poor must clarification.
In addition to traditional must pre-clarification/sedimentation, SIHAZYM Claro enzyme can also be used as a flotation enzyme.
Technical Specifications
SIHAZYM Claro enzyme has an activity of 18,600 lb/dr (10,500 PGNU/g, polygalacturonase). The product is cleaned of cinnamyl esterase activity.
Features and Benefits
- The specific benefits of SIHAZYM Claro enzyme:
- Fast and effective must pre-clarification
- Higher quantity of free running must in grape varieties with high pectin content
- Reduction of juice viscosity
Product Applications
SIHAZYM Claro enzyme is particularly suitable for a fast and effective depectinization of grape must. An alcohol test can be used to check the breakdown of pectin.
Based on the dosage recommendation, the product is added directly into the must clarification tank as a 10% solution in water. Add SIHAZYM Claro enzyme to the enzyme solution in the reaction tank to ensure pectin breakdown before the actual flotation. For problematic mash from grapes with high pectin content, it is beneficial to add a combination of SIHAZYM Extro enzyme and SIHAZYM Claro enzyme into the press.
It is important to ensure optimum distribution of the enzyme solution in the must.
