| 摘要 |
The present invention provides a method for producing beer comprising filtering beer through a porous membrane until such time that the porous membrane is in need of cleaning, contacting the porous membrane with an enzyme selected from the group consisting of cellulases, amylases, and combinations thereof, particularly a cellulase having a crystalline: soluble cellulose activity ratio at 60 minutes of at least about 0.1, to clean the porous membrane, and then reusing the porous membrane to continue filtering beer. The present invention further provides a method for producing beer comprising filtering beer through a porous membrane that progressively clogs during filtration, monitoring the streaming or zeta potential of the porous membrane as a measure of the extent of clogging of the porous membrane, halting filtration of the beer through the porous membrane before the porous membrane becomes fully clogged as determined by the streaming or zeta potential of the porous membrane, cleaning the porous membrane, and then reusing the porous membrane to continue filtering beer. |
