2oz KICK CARRAGEENAN GRANULES LDC Economy Finings similar to Whirlfloc For Home Brewing Beer Making

$5.95

Here’s 2oz of KICK CARRAGEENAN® Granules you can use at the end of your boil to help make brilliantly clear beer.   It improves both hot and cold breaks.  This product is similar to WHIRLFLOC®, being an enhanced extract of red Irish Moss and polysaccharides.   Kick is superior to either of those two fining agents used by itself.  Kick works the same way by binding to haze-forming proteins and other small particles and flocculates rapidly.

Kick had the same main ingredients as the WhirlFloc but this is an easy to use powder for small batches.   Kick is manufactured using high quality materials and equipment.   The convenient granular form makes using it for small batches simple.  Just add 1-2 grams into the boiling wort 10-15 minutes before flame out.  Also available in tablets of varying sizes, including the large 50 gallon brewery version tab.

Description

KICK Carrageenan is a boil kettle flocculent based on very pure Kappa carrageenan. Kick is more powerful than generic Irish Moss and correctly sized so that each tablet will treat 5 gallons of wort. The active ingredient, Kappa Carrageenan, is a high molecular weight polysaccharide derived from red seaweed. KICK® T works by assisting the coagulation and settling of haze-producing proteins and beta glucans.  It locks on to the gunk and drags it to the bottom.  WHIRLFLOC® T  is specifically formulated to coagulate the unstable proteins in brewery worts.  It collects and settles the haze-producing proteins and beta glucans. Kosher Pareve-certified and domestically formulated under GMP conditions.  Can be added to beer labeled as “organic” or “made with organic.”

  • 5 Tablets Micro-T.  Each tablet will treat 50 gallons of wort.
  • Kick improves wort clarity leading to cleaner fermentation and easier filtration afterward.
  • Convenient tablet form.  No measuring just toss one in the kettle during the last 10-15 minutes of the boil.
  • Contains purified polysaccharides and concentrated Kappa carrageenan derived from red seaweed.
  • Kick is more refined and powerful than generic Irish Moss and much easier to use.

USAGE:  Timing is more important than dosage.  Add 1 tablet per 5 gallons of mash in the final 10-15 minutes of the boil. Tablets do not need to be hydrated and should dissolve rapidly.  If problems occur, the tablet may be crushed prior to use.  For larger batches the dosage is technically two tablets per barrel per 10 degrees Plato.

 

KICK kettle coagulant and fining agent is a purified, high molecular weight Irish Moss and carrageenan powder put into a convenient tablet form. It reacts with colloidal haze promoting material in the wort to accelerate the formation of dense and compact trub during the hot and cold breaks. Kick binds with the trub and is removed with that material by settling or filtration before the beer is finished. It does not remain in the beer. This saves time, boosts wort recovery, and results in a brighter wort. Improved wort clarity with Kick leads to cleaner fermentation and easier filtration afterward. A big improvement for all beers large and small!
