Sihazym Uni
Granulated Wine Enzyme Compound for Extraction and Clarification of Grape Mash
SIHAZYM Uni enzyme from Eaton’s Begerow Product Line is a high pectolytic enzyme compound. Due to its composition, it is suitable for must clarification and for extraction of grape mash. Using SIHAZYM Uni enzyme for clarifying must leads to rapid depectinization and therefore effective clarification. When used at mash stage the defined secondary activities of SIHAZYM Uni enzyme ensure increased extraction of colorants and grape aroma and tannin components.
Technical Specifications
SIHAZYM Uni enzyme has an activity of 420 PLU/dr (240 PLU/g). The product is cleaned of cinnamyl esterase activity.
Features and Benefits
- The specific benefits of SIHAZYM Uni enzyme:
- Rapid and effective depectinization of grape must
- Rapid release of grape ingredients
- Reduction of mash viscosity
- Increased colorant, aroma compound, and polysaccharide release
- Higher quantity of free run must
- Free of cinnamylesterase activity
Product Applications
SIHAZYM Uni enzyme is a multi-purpose enzyme for the treatment of grape musts, mashes, and young wines. Depectinization of the must is ensured through the high pectolytic activity. The release of polysaccharides and anthocyanins is achieved through the combination of pectolytic activities.
Based on the dosage recommendation, add the product directly into the mash container, the grape mill, the press, or the grape mash container as a 10% solution in water. It is important to ensure optimum distribution of the enzyme solution in the mash, either through continuous addition to the mash flow via an injector pump or through partial addition (with running agitator) during filling of the mash containers. During must preclarification, the enzyme/water solution should be added to the clarification tank (stirring may be advisable).
