Benefits

To remain competitive in the consolidating, globalizing beer market, brewers face the challenges of reducing costs and extracting maximum value from raw materials

Opportunities for Barley

Barley is a cost-efficient raw material. It enables brewers to reduce costs and produce high quality beers. 
The price of barley is typically half of the price of malt. Due to its resemblance to malt, barley is a flexible and versatile alternative to malt in the production of high quality beers with great foam, taste and clarity. Barley is also excellent for portfolio diversification. The development of new brands is one route to generating higher margins, since it grants brewers flexibility in their choice of raw materials, including barley.  Whether brewers are looking to partially replace malt, produce 100% barley beer or develop new beer styles, barley can help brewers maintain a competitive advantage.

A decade of innovation

For more than a decade, brewers have used a combination of DSM’s enzymes to achieve optimal barley brewing efficiency and quality. Brewers Compass™ is an evolution of this experience. Developed and successfully tested at full industrial scale in a 100% barley brewing application, the product’s unique composition offers the latest generation of enzyme technology.

Sustainable

Brewing with barley − and Brewers Compass™ – can also helpachieve sustainability targets. When brewing 100% barley with Brewers Compass™, the carbon footprint savings are typically in excess of 60 kg CO2 per T barley used.
