{"product_id":"ab-vickers-alpha-acetolactate-decarboxylase-aldc-1-kg","title":"AB Vickers ALDC - 1kg","description":"\u003cp\u003eAB Vickers ALDC is a liquid alpha-acetolactate decarboxylase enzyme from Lallemand Brewing that heads off diacetyl at fermentation. Added to the fermenter, it lets maturation run on schedule instead of waiting out a diacetyl rest.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDuring active fermentation, yeast excretes alpha-acetolactate, which slowly oxidizes to diacetyl — the buttery flavor no clean lager should carry — and then has to be reabsorbed by the yeast. ALDC decarboxylates alpha-acetolactate directly to flavorless acetoin, so the diacetyl never forms.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe payoff is biggest on lagers and cold fermentations, and in any cellar where tank turnaround is the constraint.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFull specifications, dosing, and storage are on the TDS. Part of the AB Vickers process-aid line from Lallemand Brewing.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lallemand","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49250994815203,"sku":"5923","price":199.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0708\/1174\/6531\/files\/adlc_-_1kg.png?v=1781200954","url":"https:\/\/www.probrewsupply.com\/products\/ab-vickers-alpha-acetolactate-decarboxylase-aldc-1-kg","provider":"TBI Pro Brew Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
