1. Acidification
The Galacid™ range is the ideal solution to acidify any beverage and reach the desired pH. It helps to create sour-tasting beverages without modifying the taste of the finished product. The excellent advantage of lactic acid based products is that their strength of taste is amongst the lowest of the traditional organic acids used, yet the longevity of their taste impact is one of the highest.
In brewery sector, the addition of lactic acid in malt has proven effects in increasing both the extraction and fermentation yields. The directaddition of Galacid™ is time and energy saving, improving the quality of the final beer.
2. Flavour and taste
Adding one of our natural solutions from the Galacid™ range helps deliver the optimal sour/sweet balance and greatly improves the taste of soft drinks.
Galacid™ and Galacid Buffered™ bring a newflavour experience in low calorie soft drinks by enhancing sweetness and diminishing the unpleasant after-taste of sweeteners such as aspartame or stevia. These products also intensify flavours such as strawberry, cherevry, peach and cola.
