AMS

AMS is especially used in the brewing industry as a liquor treatment to provide optimum pH levels throughout the whole brewing process and improve extract yield, wort runoff and the clarity and stability of the finished beer.

AMS adjusts liquor alkalinity without the need for boiling by removing unwanted carbonate ions and adding desirable ions, such as chloride and sulphate in the correct ratios, ideal for most beer styles.

Benefits

-Reduces the alkalinity levels of brewing liquor stimulating maximum enzyme activity in the wort enabling optimum pH levels throughout the whole brewing process.
-Improves extract yield and fermentability
-Adds desirable chloride and sulphate ions in suitable proportions
-Improves clarity and stability of the finished product
