Abstract
The invention relates to a process of process of producing a fermentation product, comprising: liquefying a starch-containing material to dextrins with an alpha-amylase in the presence of an asparaginase and/or an amino acid oxidase; saccharifying the dextrins to a sugar with a glucoamylase; and fermenting the sugar using a fermenting organism.
Claims8
A process of producing a fermentation product, comprising:
- (a) liquefying a starch-containing material to a dextrin with an alpha-amylase in the presence of an asparaginase or a mixture of an amino acid oxidase, an arginase, and an asparaginase;
- (b) saccharifying the dextrin to a sugar with a saccharifying enzyme;
- and
- (c) fermenting the sugar using a fermenting organism to produce the fermentation product.
