Termamyl® Prime
Novonesis’ Termamyl® Prime is the robust solution for efficient starch and dextrin conversion and increased capacity through high-gravity brewing.
Product features, details and benefits
- Increased adjunct inclusion
Adjuncts such as corn, rice, and sorghum starch have high gelatinization temperatures, causing malt α-amylases to become inactive at these levels. This limitation restricts the proportion of these adjuncts you can incorporate into your beers. Our thermostable product ensures consistent liquefaction at elevated temperatures, enabling you to increase adjunct inclusion in your brews.
- Maximum yield through starch and dextrin conversion
Termamyl® Prime combines alpha-amylase enzymes that address malt-intrinsic enzymatic shortcomings, securing maximal extract yields and target fermentability.
- Consistent sugar profile while maintaining Real Degree of Fermentation (RDF)
Termamyl® Prime features alpha-amylase enzymes that efficiently break down starch into dextrins and the fermentable sugar maltose. This allows you to maintain your target RDF without increasing the glucose content in your wort.
- Process robustness against elevated gelatinization temperatures
Due to climate change, barley often experiences an increase in gelatinization temperature, negatively impacting the malt's endogenous β-amylase. Termamyl® Prime empowers you to process even challenging barley and malt while ensuring the target RDF and maintaining maltose levels in your wort.
- Increased capacity through high gravity brewing
Raising brewing gravity is an effective strategy to boost brewing capacity. Unlike other enzymes, Termamyl® Prime remains unaffected by higher sugar levels, delivering yield, fermentable sugars, and RDF even in high gravity brewing scenarios.
- Enhance sustainability claims
Increasing the amount of adjunct, lowering peak decoction temperatures, and expanding capacity significantly enhance your sustainability profile.

This product contains enzymes. While enzymes are safe to use in consumer applications, they need correct handling in working environments to ensure workers’ safety.
Indeed, repeated inhalation of enzyme dust or aerosols resulting from improper handling may induce sensitization and may cause allergic type 1 reactions in sensitized individuals.
Please follow the precautionary handling recommendations below:
- Avoid breathing dust/fume/gas/mist/vapors/spray
- Avoid contact with eyes, skin, or clothing
- In case of inadequate ventilation wear respiratory protection
- IF INHALED: Remove person to fresh air and keep comfortable for breathing
- If experiencing respiratory symptoms: Call a POISON CENTER or a doctor
- Store in a dry place. Store in a closed container
- Dispose of contents/containers in accordance with local regulations
