- Maintain your beer's fresh taste and prevent unwanted cardboard-like off-flavors thanks to Vicant SB's advanced staling reaction blocking
- Achieve superior clarity and longer shelf life with Vicant SB, which enhances both flavor and colloidal stability while slowing browning
- Protect your brew at every stage; Vicant SB's dual-action oxygen scavengers provide rapid defense during pasteurization and sustained protection throughout storage
Vicant SB is an anti oxidant and anti browning agent designed to enhance flavor and colloidal stability in beer. It is a white, crystalline powder which is fully soluble in water. Vicant SB supplies sources of sulphur dioxide and ascorbate.
Principle:
The active components function in two ways, by scavenging dissolved oxygen and blocking staling reactions. Vicant SB slows the formation of off-flavors, typically described as paper or cardboard, by binding with the causative carbonyl compounds, particularly trans-2-nonenal.
Vicant SB also contains oxygen scavengers. These act at different rates, the faster acts to protect the beer during pasteurization, the slower to protect during storage.
