Over in the gluten free brewing world commercial enzymes play a big role in starch conversion for malted gluten free grains that are typically lower in DP (and where higher gelatinization temps can denature the endogenous enzymes before they have a chance to do their work).
GF brewers using Brewer's Friend can and do use the "Other ingredients" section to include enzyme dosages during the mash. But it would be really useful to have some built-in logic for indicating dosage rate based on the type of enzyme and size of grain bill. Ideally there'd be an enzyme category that had the following properties:
- Manufacturer (e.g. Novozymes)
- Enzyme name (e.g. Ceremix Flex)
- Minimum dosage (e.g. 0.7 ml per kg)
- Maximum dosage (e.g. 1.1 ml per kg)
- Effective temperature range (e.g. 51-80 c)
When adding one of these enzymes to the recipe Brewer's Friend would suggest a dosage range based on pounds/kg of grain.
Thanks for considering!
