Application of Xylanase in Functional Beer

The application of xylanase in functional beer was investigated.The results showed that the addition of xylanase in beer fermentation process could promote the formation of xylo-oligosaccharide(the addition of neutral xylanase had the best effects).Meanwhile,the best technical parameters for the addition of neutral xylanase were summed up as follows: neutral xylanase added at the beginning of protein rest(feed temperature rose to 5 0℃ at that time),the addition level was 110 U/g,as a result,the yield of xylo-oligosaccharide in barley beer was as high as 0.621 g/L.
