Vegan, Clean-Label Fining Agent for Clarifying Beverages

June 6, 2023

Chinova Bioworks has introduced the new MycoKleer™, a sustainably produced vegan fining agent for the manufacturing of beverages. MycoKleer can save manufacturers time, energy, and money by improving their efficiencies during the clarification process of drinks.

MycoKleer is a cutting-edge, all-natural alternative to synthetic or animal-based fining agents for clarifying beverages. Derived from upcycled white button mushrooms, MycoKleer is a vegan, clean-label, self-affirmed Generally Recognized as Safe (GRAS) processing aid. It is a fast-acting solution that attracts and binds with yeasts, tannins, proteins, and other unwanted particles from a variety of beverages such as juice, coffee, tea, cider, seltzer, beer, and wine.

MycoKleer also has the benefit of eliminating or reducing the time needed for cold crashing, filtration, and centrifugation during beverage manufacturing.

After attracting and binding with unwanted particles, within 12-24 hours, MycoKleer and the particles settle as a solid layer at the bottom of the beverage allowing brewers to easily rack off the remaining clear liquid.
