P-125 Advances in preparation and processing <strong>of</strong> food and brewery wastes for energy recovery JENS VOIGT (1), Doris Schieder (2) (1) Technische Universität München, Lehrstuhl Für Maschinen- und Apparatekunde, Center <strong>of</strong> Life Science, Freising-Weihenstephan; (2) Technische Universität München, Energy Technology, Straubing, Germany In a joint research project supported by AiF (German Federation <strong>of</strong> Industrial Research <strong>Association</strong>s) <strong>the</strong> technology and process for generation <strong>of</strong> biogas was investigated. Two areas for intensifying <strong>the</strong> process were focused on. The use <strong>of</strong> fine comminution <strong>of</strong> brewery spent grains toge<strong>the</strong>r with o<strong>the</strong>r wastes, like bran, from flour mills was investigated, and different milling systems were used to reduce <strong>the</strong> particle size. With a pre-milling step in a dispersion mill wet material could be reduced to less than 200 µm. Fur<strong>the</strong>r milling and reduction <strong>of</strong> particles down to
Poster Session: Fermentation Moderator: Ian Stanners, Burlington, ON Canada Ian Stanners worked at Molson Breweries for 30 years, retiring as corporate director <strong>of</strong> brewing. He earned a B.S. degree in microbiology and a diploma in business administration. Ian was a chair <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> first Governor General’s Canadian Study Conference in 1983. He is a member <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> extended faculty <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Siebel Institute <strong>of</strong> Technology in Chicago, teaching brewing science and technology. He also teaches brewing skills to people internationally using <strong>the</strong> power <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Internet. In <strong>the</strong> last 4 years he has tutored over 170 people around <strong>the</strong> world. He is a consultant to several large North American companies, helping <strong>the</strong>m in both brewing and managerial training areas. P-127 Withdrawn P-128 Development <strong>of</strong> improved enzyme products for attenuation control and very high attenuated beers NIELS ELVIG (1), Hans Peter Heldt-Hansen (1), Barrie Edmund Norman (1), Ricardo Gerlack (2) (1) Novozymes, Bagsvaerd, Denmark; (2) Novozymes North America, Franklinton, NC The development and production <strong>of</strong> very high attenuated beer (LowCarb beer) created <strong>the</strong> need for better enzymes. Standard glucoamylase products from Aspergillus niger is used at high dosages and extended mashing times, but are sometimes accompanied by filtration and hot brake stability problems in <strong>the</strong> brewhouse. Glucoamylases can also be applied in lower dosages to increase attenuation during fermentation, but with a complicated pasteurization process to inactivate <strong>the</strong> enzyme. Glucoamylase products from A. niger also contain an acid stable α-amylase as a minor component. This α-amylase hydrolyzes amylopectin to smaller dextrins than o<strong>the</strong>r α-amylases and has suitable pH and temperature activity pr<strong>of</strong>iles for wort production. The glucoamylase and α-amylase work in synergy, where a higher α-amylase to glucoamylase ratio gives a more efficient saccharification. An improved enzyme product (Attenuzyme) with such an increased ratio has been obtained through self-cloning <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> amylase into a glucoamylase producing A. niger strain. The improved performance when applying this product in mashing for high attenuated beer has been demonstrated. Fur<strong>the</strong>r improvement in attenuation performance can be obtained through optimization <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> dextrin debranching enzyme activity. Dextrin debranching activity (hydrolysis <strong>of</strong> α-1,6-linkages) is present in malt (limit dextrinase), and it is known that exogenous added debranching enzymes (pullulanases) increase saccharification. Different pullulanases have been evaluated in 100% malt mashing in combination with <strong>the</strong> acid amylase enriched glucoamylase enzyme. The evaluation included temperature and pH pr<strong>of</strong>iles and attenuation performance in 100% malt mashing. A new triple-enzyme product (Attenuzyme Flex) was defined by adding <strong>the</strong> preferred pullulanase in an optimized ratio to <strong>the</strong> α-amylase enriched glucoamylase. The performance <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> triple-enzyme blend was compared in mashing to a glucoamylase product and <strong>the</strong> α-amylase enriched glucoamylase for high attenuated beer. The triple-enzyme product is effective at lower dosages <strong>of</strong> glucoamylase, where <strong>the</strong> same saccharification performance can be obtained with less than 30% <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> glucoamylase activity compared to a glucoamylase. The product can fur<strong>the</strong>rmore be used to reduce <strong>the</strong> mashing time as <strong>the</strong> same saccharification with equal amounts <strong>of</strong> glucoamylase can be obtained with a 50% reduction <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> mashing time relative to <strong>the</strong> glucoamylase. Brewing experiments demonstrate that <strong>the</strong> triple enzyme product also eliminates or reduces filtration and hot brake problems. The triple enzyme product is also applicable to improving <strong>the</strong> attenuation <strong>of</strong> maltose wort as <strong>the</strong> attenuation can be increased 4% more than with a glucoamylase with less reduction in maltose content compared to <strong>the</strong> glucoamylase product. Niels Elvig received a M.S. degree in biochemistry from Copenhagen University in 1980. He began working with Novozymes A/S in 1981 as a chemist in <strong>the</strong> enzyme analytical laboratory. Since January 1986, he has functioned as a manager in <strong>the</strong> Enzyme Analytical and Applications Departments in Denmark, Malaysia, and China. Since January 2003, he has been working as a project leader with brewing applications in Denmark. P-129 α-Acetolactate in sake mash, assayed by novel LC/MS method, was influenced by inoculum size and fermentation temperature KEN KOBAYASHI (1), Kazutaka Kusaka (1) (1) National Research Institute <strong>of</strong> Brewing α-Acetolactate is <strong>the</strong> precursor <strong>of</strong> diacetyl, which is <strong>the</strong> main cause <strong>of</strong> an <strong>of</strong>f-flavor in alcoholic beverages, “tsuwari-ka” in sake or “diacetyl flavor” in beer. To predict <strong>the</strong> level <strong>of</strong> diacetyl in <strong>the</strong> product, <strong>the</strong> assay <strong>of</strong> α-acetolactate in mash is necessary. This assay has been done by heating samples and quantification <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> resulting diacetyl. To ensure complete stoichiometric conversion, enzymatic conversion also was employed instead <strong>of</strong> heating. But, for some samples, especially for sake mash, <strong>the</strong>se assays cannot give adequate results. A throughput <strong>of</strong> HPLC was enhanced, so <strong>the</strong> labile α-acetolactate could be assayed by <strong>the</strong> HPLC (UPLC) equipped with a mass detector. A centrifuged mash sample, which was two-fold diluted and neutralized by buffer solution, was directly injected. One UPLC run took 8 minutes, and <strong>the</strong> detection limit was less than 0.01mg/l. Neutralized samples were stable enough for several hours at 4 degrees. α-Acetolactate in sake mash was assayed by this method. This might be <strong>the</strong> first reliable result for sake mash and showed some different production patterns as <strong>the</strong> fermentation condition, such as inoculum size or fermentation temperature, differed. In beer mash, <strong>the</strong> production <strong>of</strong> α-acetolactate was closely related to <strong>the</strong> uptake <strong>of</strong> amino acids by yeast. Unlike <strong>the</strong> beer fermentation, that <strong>of</strong> sake proceeded parallel to <strong>the</strong> enzymatic digestion <strong>of</strong> steamed rice, and amino acids were gradually supplied from steamed rice to sake mash. A change in fermentation condition causes changes in supply and uptake <strong>of</strong> amino acids and should result in <strong>the</strong> difference in α-acetolactate production observed. Ken Kobayashi, who was born in 1953, graduated from <strong>the</strong> Tokyo Institute <strong>of</strong> Technology with a master <strong>of</strong> science degree in 1977. He joined <strong>the</strong> National Office <strong>of</strong> National Tax Administration in 1981, where he worked as a technical <strong>of</strong>ficer on technical support for <strong>the</strong> alcoholic beverage industries, mainly sake brewers, and on <strong>the</strong> grading <strong>of</strong> sake in several regional taxation bureaus. In 1997 he joined <strong>the</strong> National Research Institute <strong>of</strong> Brewing and was promoted to <strong>the</strong> director <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Process Engineering Division in 2006. He is involved in research on <strong>the</strong> reduction <strong>of</strong> diacetyl flavor in sake and <strong>the</strong> development <strong>of</strong> a new control method for a koji-making process (koji is molded, steamed rice that is used as <strong>the</strong> source <strong>of</strong> many digestive enzymes in a sake-making process to digest steamed rice). 129
