Improving flavor, stability, and appearance of your homebrew using Tanal A and Brewtan B

Tanal A and Brewtan B (formally Tanal B) are 100% natural, high molecular weight tannic acids extracted from plant materials, specifically for the brewing industry. In the earlier years of brewing, beer was stored in wooden barrels where wood-derived tannins and beer proteins reacted, creating high colloidal and taste stability. As we moved into the industrial age and supply chains became more complex, stabilization became increasingly important.

Tanal A is used to enhancer yeast and colloidal suspension, adding a beautiful haze to your brew. Hefeweizen and Witbier are a couple of styles that use Tanal A to create that cloudy finish.
On the other hand, Breton B is used to improve the shelf life and enhance beer’s flavor and colloidal stability. Brewton B reacts with wort proteins through absorption and precipitation — highly effective at coagulating and flocculating, reducing lipid and protein oxidation, improving flavor stability and shelf life.
