Protafloc 15 Tablets
Protafloc is an easy-to-use, consistent copper fining designed specifically for wort clarification.
Protafloc dissolves easily into boiling wort and complexes with the undesirable protein
fraction known as the “cold break”, once the wort is cooled and in the fermenter.
As it quickly settles out, it is kept out of the yeast and beer.
Protafloc clarifies wort making compact protein sediments in the fermenter. As the size
of remaining particles is increased and their number reduced, it is far easier to filter and
centrifuge, saving time and money.
Protafloc contains large, negatively charged polysaccharides called kappa-carrageenan
which bind to the positively charged protein in the cold break as it forms.
The resulting particles are relatively large and sediment and fall to the bottom of the
fermenting vessel. Addition is simple and easy made ten minutes before the end of
the boil.
Protafloc Tablets dissolve rapidly and can also be added to the whirlpool during filling.
