Step Mash Method
Step from below 50°C to over 73°C by adding boiling water over a short period of time. The low step increases the protein content (required for fermentation) and the high step causes rapid inactivation of maltose-producing beta amylase. This creates a wort with a very low attenuation limit. Make sure that the mash does not drop below 73°C after increasing the temperature.[1] See Mashing.
In making low-alcohol beers it is usual to mash well-cured malts with caramel malts at high temperatures to minimize saccharification, and so reduce the production of fermentable sugars.[2]
A number of different procedures for manufacturing alcohol-free and low-alcohol beers are available: removal of alcohol by distillation, vacuum distillation, vacuum evaporation, dialysis, reverse osmosis, restricted fermentation, use of special yeasts, production of a wort having a less pronounced flavour, use of spent grains and CO2 extraction.[3] the results of this study have shown the values for the contents of the phenolic components in the alcohol-free beers to be lower than the values for the standard beers, attributable to differences in the duration of fermentation and the yeast strains employed in brewing alcohol-free beers (e.g., the case of tyrosol) and to losses brought about by the dealcoholization processes employed (e.g., p-coumaric acid, caffeic acid, vanillic acid, etc.).
