Using the product
\nHow much of the product to add
\nMost beers will require an addition of auxiliary finings at a rate between 100ml to 500ml
\nper hl. It is important to note that if auxiliary finings are being used with isinglass, it must
\nbe added before the isinglass.
\nWhere to add auxiliary finings
\nAuxiliary finings can be added at one of several points:
\nInto the fermentation vessel
\nThe auxiliary can be added to the fermentation vessel either through the CIP spray ball at
\nthe top of the tank or pumped through the outlet valve of the bottom of the tank. The
\naddition should be made at the end of fermentation, as the vessel goes onto chill. The
\nresidue fermentation and convection currents are sufficient to mix the product.
\nInto the beer main feeding the racking heads
\nThis method can be combined with proportional metering to ensure the correct rate of
\naddition. The auxiliary is added first followed by the isinglass finings if required.
\nInto the cask before it is filled
\nThe appropriate quantity of auxiliary is put into the cask before filling. If the filling rate is
\nfast and turbulent, isinglass can then be added towards the end of the fill or after.
\nInto cask when in pub cellar
\nAuxiliary finings can also be added to cask beer in the pub cellar to a beer with a
\npersistent haze, and Finings Adjunct is well formulated for this work.
\nUsing auxiliary finings with isinglass
\nWhen using auxiliary finings with isinglass it is important to add it before the isinglass.
\nOtherwise they will not clarify the beer properly. This is because the two products carry
\nopposite charge and will react with each other rather than the hazes on the beer that they
\nare designed to clear.

\nFinings Optimisation
\nAuxiliary finings should be optimised at the same time as isinglass finings as they are
\nused together. This should be carried out on a regular basis and certainly when a new
\nseasons\u2019 malt comes on stream. Usage rates need to be optimised both to ensure
\neconomic cost is achieved and in order to gain the best possible results. Over fining can
\ncause hazes just as under fining can leave hazes: it is not a case of more finings always
\ngiving better clarity. An easy way to check your beer fining performance is by using 500ml
\nplastic bottles. An optimisation is run by making trials to optimise the rate of Isinglass
\naddition within the range of 0.4\u20141.6 litres per hl by adding 2, 4, 6 and 8 mls of RFU
\nIsinglass to 4 labelled 500 ml bottles and mixing well. Samples containing Auxiliary
\nfinings within the range 0.2, 0.4, 0.8 and 1.2 litres per hl are set up to run concurrently.
\nAfter an appropriate time interval, which will vary with beer type, an assessment is made
\nof the optimum rate of isinglass required to fine the beer. This will not necessarily be the
\nbrightest beer, since the Auxiliary will improve the polish. With the Isinglass we are
\nlooking for the point at which an extra pint of Isinglass appears to add only excess
\nbottoms, with no appreciable improvement in clarity. This rate of Isinglass is then added
\nto all the sample bottles of Auxiliary finings, mixing well. It is then quite easy to check the
\neffects of three or four re-settles as required.
\nOnce an optimum rate has been assessed, it is important to keep a check to ensure that
\nit is going to work. Take a sample of the beer, either from FV after fermentation or from
\nthe Conditioning Tank\/Racking Back. Add to this the equivalent rate of Auxiliary and mix
\nwell. An hour or so later add the optimum rate of Isinglass and remix. Within a short
\nperiod of time you should see floc formation and clarification of the beer occurring. You
\ncan then have peace of mind that the beer should fine well in trade.
\nHowever the real purpose of this verification is to find the one occasion when the beer
\ndoesn\u2019t fine. If you do not get a satisfactory result in a milk bottle then you are highly
\nlikely to experience a problem in trade. This simple procedure means that you have an
\nearly warning of a potential problem, and that you can take the necessary corrective
\naction whilst the beer is still in one tank and under your full control.
\nAddition of an 300 ml per hl of Auxiliary for example is rather easier in a tank in the
\nbrewery than it is in 40 firkins spread far and wide in the trade.
\nClarification products
\nMurphy and Son will carry out free finings optimisation for our customers. For Isinglass
\nand Auxiliary optimisations please send in one litre of your unfined beer. All samples
\nmust be in plastic containers, fully labelled and accompanied by a cover letter with full
\ncontact details.
\nGuidelines for use
\nDO
\n\u2022 Check that the product is within its shelf life before use
\n\u2022 Ensure that auxiliary finings are well mixed into the beer before adding isinglass
\n\u2022 Carry out optimisation trials to determine the correct rate of use
\n\u2022 Read the Safety Data Sheet prior to use
\nDO NOT
\n\u2022 Mix Auxiliary and isinglass before they are added to beer
\n\u2022 Add isinglass finings before auxiliary finings\u2014it rarely works
\n\u2022 Add too much auxiliary finings. Tank bottoms will be very loose with high beer
\nlosses
\n\u2022 Allow the product to have prolonged contact steel and aluminium.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
