Flavanto 40 Tabs

Pure PVPP in tablets form, designed for use in beer.

Flavanto 40 Tabs is a PVPP (polyvinylpolypyrrolidone) with an adsorption index of 40%. It appears as a very fine, hygroscopic white powder. Its selective adsorbing action targets simple polyphenols, which are responsible for beer browning and colour instability. The interaction with beer is rapid, allowing very short contact times, especially at temperatures below 10 °C. Flavanto 40 Tabs offers the following benefits:

Removal of unstable colour: eliminates browning-related polyphenols, improving visual stability
Improved colour: contributes to a brighter and clearer beer
Aroma cleanliness and enhancement: preserves and enhances the beer’s aromatic profile
Foam stability: helps standardise and stabilise foam formation
Taste improvement: promotes a cleaner and more balanced flavour profile
Reduced need for antioxidants: improves oxidative stability, decreasing the need for additional additives

Pure PVPP in tablet form.

80 g/hl (maximum legal dose).

Use Flavanto 40 Tabs in 1:5 aqueous suspension for 20 minutes. Leave for at least 24/36 hours, filter.
Conduct preliminary tests on small beer samples.

1 kg and 10 kg bag.
Store in a cool, dry place.

Tablets, a sustainable alternative to pellets and granulates

The commercial trend for products subject to excessive dustiness is increasingly moving in the direction of agglomerated/granulated forms that limit dust dispersion to the operator’s detriment, reducing product waste.

The latest research and development project has brought essedielle to the production of granulates by agglomeration, through the fluid bed agglomeration technique. However, the energy costs of the process are considerable, leading to the search for more cost-effective forms of dust reduction processes.

Tablet manufacturing is a well-established process in the pharmaceutical industry, converting native powdered products into compact forms that are easier to dose and administer.

The manufacturing process is also economical because it is purely mechanical, as a certain fixed amount of powdery material is introduced inside a cavity formed by two punches and a mold. The punches are then pressed with a high force so that the material is fused together.

Initially, the lower punch is lowered to create a cavity in which to accommodate the granular material. The excess amount is scraped away. The lower punch is lowered, and the cavity is temporarily covered to prevent material leakage.

The upper punch is then lowered, and at the same time the cover is removed so that the upper punch is in contact with the powder.

At this point, compression rollers act on the upper punch to impart the necessary compressive force to melt the granular material together in the form of a tablet.

Finally, the lower punch is raised so as to eject the tablet.

The ease of production, low production costs, and resolution in an alternative manner to granulation of the tableted formula prompts the direction of efforts in this type of agglomeration.

Brewing protocol with essedielle products

FILTRATION

Add Flavanto 40 Tabs and Beersol.

FERMENTATION

Add Beerferm Golden Wheat (for distinct aroma profiles) or Beerferm West Ale (for fruity and floral fragrances), in combination with Nutri Brew.

aging

If searched, add Tanni Brew or Brew Oak Chips

BOILING

Or in the various processes where the beer is to be protected from oxygen: Antiox Brew

before bottling

Use Beergum to stabilise the foam and bring roundness and structure to the beer.
