Flavourings and additives for breweries – sugars, spices, water treatment, finings and enzymes

Here you will find additives in production sizes for breweries and wine and cider makers: sugars and candi syrup in 25 kg, spices and peel in 1 and 5 kg, brewing salts and acids for water treatment, finings, enzymes and preservatives. The range comes from Murphy & Son, Castle Malting, Belgosuc, Vinoferm and Lallemand, among others.

Finding the right additive for each step of the brew

Brewing liquor: Calcium sulphate (gypsum), calcium chloride, magnesium sulphate and acids adjust minerals and pH before mashing. 25 kg calcium sulphate is the best-selling bulk brewing salt.
Mashing: Enzymes such as glucanase and AMG, and 17 kg rice hulls for better run-off.
The boil: Kettle finings such as Protafloc tablets go in for the last 10 minutes. Sugars, candi syrup and spices such as bitter orange peel add alcohol, colour and flavour.
Fermentation: ALDC counters diacetyl and hop creep, and antifoams keep foam down in the tank.
After fermentation: Super F and gelatine clear the beer. Lactose adds body and sweetness because it does not ferment, and 25 kg dextrose is used for fermentation and carbonation.

Frequently asked questions about brewery additives

What is the difference between the trade range and the homebrew range?

The trade range comes in production sizes, such as 25 kg sugar, 5 kg spices and 25 kg brewing salts. Additives for homebrewing has the same types in smaller packs, starting at 25 grams.

Which additives are available for wine and cider?

Under Enzymes and more you will find potassium metabisulphite (Campden), potassium sorbate, tartaric acid, malic acid, ascorbic acid, pectinase and lactic acid bacteria for malolactic fermentation from Vinoferm and Lallemand, among others.

Can hazardous chemicals be shipped as a normal parcel?

Not all of them. 42 kg of 85 % phosphoric acid is dangerous goods and must ship on a pallet. Check the product page and safety data sheet before ordering acids.
