BECOSORB 1000 silica gel is a highly pure non-swelling amorphous silicic acid xerogel with a maximum moisture content of 10%. Through precisely defined particle size, uniform surface structure, pore size, and optimal total pore volume it adsorbs macromolecular protein compounds from the beer, which could cause colloidal hazing.
| BECOSORB 1000 lb/1,000 gal (g/hl) |
Shelf life months |
| 1.25 – 1.67 (15-20) | approx. 3-4 |
| 1.67 – 3.34 (20 – 40) | approx. 4–6 |
| 3.34 – 6.68 (40 – 80) | approx. 6 – 12 |
| > 6.68 (> 80 g/hl) | approx. > 12 |
| As a general recommendation, BECOSORB 1000 silica gel should be added as a preparation to the second pre-coating with a dose of 5.12 – 10.24 lb/1,000 ft² (25 – 50 g/m2). This significantly improves the shelf life. | |
