The previous methodology, with addition of protease dosed at 50 mg of enzyme/kg of malt at the beginning of the protein rest during mashing, resulted in increased amino acid concentrations of approximately 40% and increased free thiol concentrations of approximately 50% in wort compared with a control without protease addition.
