I'd like to make my own glucose syrup, using enzymes - can somebody help
me with the process? Apparently you use alpha and beta amylases - they use them in beer brewing sometimes, but I might look for amylases from bacteria & fungi, rather than the pancreatic enzymes that are (I think) used in beer brewing. I've read that you cook a starch/water mixture, keeping it at 150 F somehow (what's a good way to keep a constant temperature?) and at pH about 5.5-5.6. I guess i could lower the pH with cream of tartar if necessary. I'm allergic to corn & somewhat fructose intolerant, and syrup from starch should have very little fructose in it. laura |
