The article Enzymes explains the dynamics of enzymatic reactions. In particular how parameters like sunbstrate concentration, enzyme concentration, temperature and time affect the speed of the enzymatic reaction and the amount of product that is produced.


Starch

  • where it is found
  • glucose and 1-4/1-6 branches
  • amylose
  • amylopectin
  • starch granule structure

Starch conversion

  • gelatinization
  • active enzymes
  • emzyme temperature and pH optima
  • mash parameters affecting conversion

Proteins
