Liquid Supercritical CO2 Hops Extract

Product Description

Product Name: Supercritical CO2 Hops Extract

Source: Humulus lupulus Linn

Extract Method: Extract by Supercritical CO2

Part Used: Flower

Applications: Hops concrete, its effects as follows

1. antibacterial

2. composed.

3. estrogen and anti-aging, removing the pain of menses. Mainly ued in beer.

4.Content: alpha-acid 30% min

Appearance:golden yellow to amber viscous liquid, semi-mobile or heavy.

Aroma: The aroma of the extract is described as herbal, floral, piney or citric. Aromatic notes
will be variety specific. Perception of hoppy character and various related notes in beer will be
variety specific, and will depend on the quantity of extract added and the time of addition
during kettle boil.

Features: process of natural hops or hop particles, compressed hops as raw material, after
grinding, the liquid CO2 extraction technology from production.

The main components α-acids, β-acids, hop oil.



Product Features

(1) natural. 100% hops extract, no solvent residue and chemical additives.

(2) has the natural characteristics and aroma hops in beer brewing can replace some or
all of hops, bitterness can be a more accurate control of the quality content, improve the
hop utilization.

(3) stability. Avoid acid oxidation product α negative impact on beer flavor.

(4) packaging small volume, easy storage and transportation, warehousing costs low.



Application:

(1) beer, soft drinks and other foods. +(2) medicine.

1.CO2 Hop Extract is primarily used as a kettle hop ingredient to provide clean bitterness
and hop character to beer.

2.It will improve physical stability and will contribute to a more consistent beer.

3.Traditionally, kettle hopping with leaf hops, pellets or extract will also lead to improved
trub formation, antimicrobial and antifoam properties.


Using Procedure:

1.Add the CO2 Hop Extract in wort early during kettle boil for bitterness
and late during kettle boil for aroma.

2.CO2 Hop Extract packaged in bulk drums has to be heated up to 50-60 degrees
Celsius for some hours to be melted prior to injecting it into the brew kettle.

3.Heating temperature and time may depend on hop variety and addition rate will
depend on the alpha concentration in the extract.

4.CO2 Hop Extract packaged in custom tins can be directly flushed with hot wort
in the brew kettle or in specific by-pass dosing systems.



Use Rate Calculations:
Addition during early kettle boil to achieve average bitterness in high gravity wort/beer
will typically lead to the isomerization of about 35% of the alpha acids in the finished beer.


Addition rate is thus calculated as follows:

KgA = (BU xHI)/ 3500

Where: KgA = Kg of alpha acids to add in the brew kettle

BU = is the desired amount
of bitter units in the finished beer

HI = HI of finished beer

Use rates may vary depending on the brewing process and the desired hopping level.


Analysis: Alpha acids and beta acids are measured by HPLC with the International
Calibration Extract as reference.


Packaging: Standard packaging is available in tins with 150 grams of alpha acid or
tins with 300 grams of alpha acid.

Storage: CO2 Hop Extract may be stored at room temperature or refrigerated.
Food grade tin cans, 1.0kg / listen to, or according to customer requirements.
Proposed to be stored at low temperature (0 ~ 5. C), kept at this temperature, the
shelf life of eight years.
