Raw materials
used for production of maltina
Malt
Adjunct {malted
sorghum, raw sorghum and maize grist}
Hops
Water
ADDITIVES
Amylex
Calcium chloride
{cacl}
Maltina complex( vitamin A, B complex and C)
Caramelized
dextrose maltase {CDM}
Lactic acid
Malt: This is barley
that has been germinated and dried. The germination process creates a number of
enzymes, notably
α-amylase and
β-amylase, which will be used during mashing to convert starch in the grains
into sugar. It is the main raw material used for production of beer and
non-alcoholic malted drinks. Its use depends on the fact that barley has high starch
content and the husk still adheres to grain even after threshing and processing
to grains.
Adjuncts {raw sorghum,
malted sorghum, maize grist}: These are additional source of starch used to
partially replace/supplement malt. These adjuncts are used for some reasons
which includes; To reduce raw material cost, contribute their own colour and
flavours to the beverage etc
Hops: It gives beer
its bitter taste and has an effect on the aroma of the beverage
Water:
Quantitatively, the most important material is water. It makes up 95% of the
beverage.
Lactic acid and
calcium chloride
are added during mashing to regulate PH.
Amylex: This is an
enzyme added during mashing to help convert the starches to sugar.
Caramelized dextrose
maltose {CDM}: This a caramelized sugar, it gives the dark colour
to the beverage.
