BECOSORB is a silica gel—a highly pure, amorphous silicon dioxide that is used for selective adsorption of protein matter that can cause turbidity in beer. Eaton offers three different silica gels formulated especially for beer stabilization.
FeaturesBECOSORB silica gel is a saturated non-swelling silicic acid xerogel. The defined article size of BECOSORB is formulated especially for beer filtration. The uniform surface structure and pore size, together with optimum pore volume, guarantee that protein compounds of high molecular weight, which might otherwise give rise to colloidal haze, are adsorbed from the beer.
