ANTIFOAM FD20PK - FOAM CONTROL Antifoam FD20PK is a silicone based emulsion which
has been developed for brewing and food processing and other applications where a quick
knockdown of foam is required. Benefits Available in easy-to-use emulsion from Controls
overfoaming at wort boiling and fermentation with minimum addition as a processing aid
Enables higher rates of evaporation while wort boiling Provides better control of spirit
distillation Prevents loss of hop bittering substances Improves Alpha-acid utilisation
Prevents expensive wort losses and unhygienic spillages Maximises CO2 recovery Increases
fermentation capacity Principle Antifoam FD20PK is an effective silicone based surface agent
which prevents foam formation by reducing surface tension. It is classed as a processing aid
because of its feature of being completely removed from beer by normal processing. It is
absorbed onto the surface of the yeast and filter media. Antifoam FD20PK has no adverse
effect on beer foam or flavour stability. Application Antifoam FD20PK disperses easily in both
hot and cold aqueous systems, requiring only mild agitation to disperse it completely in the
foaming system. Antifoam FD20PK is effective in a wide variety of brewing and other
fermentation processes, particularly in mashing, wort boiling, fermentation and maturation.
Rates of Use For maximum efficiency and economy we recommend the antifoam be diluted
with water before use, in the ratio of one volume of Antifoam FD20PK to nine volumes of cool
water, the water being added slowly to the antifoam with continual agitation. For best results
the diluted antifoam should be used within twelve hours of dilution. The quantity of antifoam
required can only be found by experiment. In general between 100 and 500 mg/litre (ppm) of
the diluted product is all that is required (500 mg/litre = 0.5 litres per 1000 litres (of foaming
media).
