This 50g granular Pectolique enzyme mix (previously called Pectolase) is suitable for treating 200–400kg of fruit.
What it does:
Pectolique breaks down pectin and proto-pectin naturally present in fruit, helping to:
- Increase juice yield from fruit.
- Enhance fermentable sugar content.
- Improve clarity and color extraction in your final product.
Note: Using pectic enzymes may also increase methanol production during fermentation.
How to use:
- Mash fruit with the minimum amount of water and heat to 10–50°C.
- Sprinkle Pectolique evenly over the mash and stir well.
- Allow to rest for 2 hours at 10–50°C. If you cannot maintain this temperature, allow a longer treatment time (e.g., 4 hours at 25°C).
- Add water and sugar (if required) for fermentation only after Pectolique treatment.
Dosage guidelines:
- Low-pectin fruit (e.g., white grapes): 1g per 8kg fruit.
- High-pectin fruit (e.g., marulas, citrus): 1g per 4kg fruit.
