Abstract
An antifoaming agent for reducing foaming during fermentation is produced by extracting ground malt with an ethanol solution having an ethanol concentration in excess of 75% to produce an ethanolic extract, separating the ethanolic extract from the ground malt and concentrating the ethanolic extract to obtain the antifoaming agent. The anti-foaming agent is particularly advantageous for use in fermentation of beer wort since it constitutes only constitutents normally in beer.
