WERKWIJZE VOOR HET WEKEN VAN GRANEN MET EEN NIEUW ENZYMPREPARAAT.

摘要

A process for steeping corn or sorghum kernels in warm water containing sulfur dioxide in the presence of an enzyme preparation comprising one or more phytin degrading enzymes, preferably in such an amount that the phytin present in the corn or sorghum is substantially degraded. The enzyme preparation may comprise phytase and/or acid phosphatase and optionally other plant material degrading enzymes. The steeping time may be 12 to 18 hours. The steeping may be interrupted by an intermediate milling step, reducing the steeping time.
