A USEFUL FIRST STEP

Start with a brief.
Build the evidence.

Free samples are available for qualified commercial trials after an application review. Sample selection, quantity, delivery and the trial method are agreed before dispatch.

Plan the next step ↗
  1. Describe your application.

    Grain or starch source, mash solids, temperature profile, pH, yeast, fermentation method and intended production scale.

  2. Agree the trial conditions.

    Include the material, scale, pH, temperature, contact time and any existing process chemicals.

  3. Define a useful result.

    Choose the comparison, controls and measurements that will guide your next decision.

BEFORE YOU START

The details
that matter.

Will an enzyme guarantee more alcohol?

No fixed yield increase is claimed. Compare treated and control fermentations with the same feedstock and operating conditions.

Can the same blend suit every grain?

Different grains and process profiles need a substrate-led review before selecting activities.

Can I buy small trial packs?

Defined enzyme ingredients are linked to the S&T store. Distillery bulk volumes and tailored blends are quoted.

Do you offer bulk supply and tailored blends?

Send your application, required quantity, specifications and delivery destination. We will review a suitable supply or development route and provide a quotation.
