e Every Distiller Has a Story...

At Gusmer, we know that every distillery has a story and that every distiller can make their own mark within the industry. That’s why we are proud to feature Bardstown Bourbon on the front cover of this year’s catalog.

Set on 100 acres of active farmland in the heart of Kentucky, Bardstown Bourbon broke ground in 2013 and the facility started producing bourbon in 2016. The company’s late founder Peter Loftin, saw a need for a custom production facility for clients looking for additional production capacity. In 2016 the company began production at approximately 1.5 million proof gallons and quickly grew to almost 7 million proof gallons in 2018 reflecting a 500% increase in just two years. Currently 90% of the facility production is for labels and clients other than Bardstown Bourbon. Bardstown Bourbon produces nearly 40 unique mash bills for some of the finest whiskey and bourbon brands, including Jefferson’s, High West, Belle Meade, Hirsch, Calumet, James E. Pepper, Cyrus Noble, and many others.

Nick Smith, Distillery Manager & Head Distiller, stressed that “it’s all about the team.” Bardstown Bourbon prides itself on its team, noting that many members of the staff have worked at a variety of distilleries in Kentucky, building upon a large wealth of knowledge and experience. Steve Nally, Master Distiller for Bardstown is a great example of this, working in the distilling industry for almost 50 years! Another key member is John Hargrove, a rising star within the whiskey industry and the Chief Operating Officer .

Like Gusmer, Bardstown Bourbon realizes that producing great bourbon is both an art and a science. At Gusmer, we have the technical staff and product lines that honor the rich history of the distillation process, while always looking to innovate. Gusmer prides itself on the many successful partnerships in the distilling industry and are here to support you with products that will help you reach your goals - products that are tried, true and tested for artisanal to large-scale spirit production.

We look forward to working together in the creation of your spirits and success in your brands.

Traditional brewing and distilling rely on the enzymes produced by malted grains to convert starch into fermentable sugars. Some of the critical enzymes developed during malting are amylases, proteases, and cellulase. These same enzyme activities are available as DuPont distilling enzymes from Gusmer.

DuPont is one of the world’s largest producers of enzymes for the food industry, with multiple production sites throughout the world, as well as R&D and technical support facilities. Gusmer Enterprises is proud to partner with an iconic brand to serve the distilling industry. Today, enzymes are used by distillers to improve process efficiency, increase alcohol yield, enhance fermentation, and to maintain overall quality and assure brand consistency. With enzymes, distillers can make use of locally produced grains and alternative raw materials to create unique, single-grain and alternative spirits. They are fundamental tools for consistently producing high quality spirits.

Liquefaction Mashing is the first step in processing starch-containing grains to alcohol. When milled grain is added to water and heated, the starch in the grain gelatinizes making it available to enzymes, but with a dramatic increase in viscosity. During liquefaction, mash viscosity is reduced by alpha-amylase enzyme activity that breaks down starch molecules to produce water-soluble dextrin fragments and maltose.

Viscosity Reducing Enzymes Enzymes such as cellulase, beta-glucanase, xylanase, and arabinase break down the non-starch components of grains to release more starch for conversion and reduce mash viscosity.

Saccharification Water-soluble fragments of starch called dextrins are unfermentable carbohydrates that must be broken down even further in saccharification to produce fermentable sugars. Glucoamylase enzymes break off single molecules of highly fermentable glucose from starch molecules, dextrins and maltose.

Fermentation Enhancement Fermentation enhancement enzymes, protease and peptidase, aid the breakdown of grain endosperm, a protein-starch matrix, into smaller proteins and amino acids releasing starch for conversion and providing additional amino acid nutrients in the wash for yeast to thrive.

When using specific combinations or blends of all these enzymes, a distiller can reduce mash viscosity, increase extract, produce more fermentable sugars and assure consistency even with varying raw material. DuPont distilling enzymes from Gusmer supply these key enzyme activities and provide the tools to reduce cost, waste and energy consumption, accelerate production and achieve consistently high quality spirits.

DuPont liquid enzymes are available in a variety of pack sizes, ranging from jerricans to drums to IBC totes. Contact your Gusmer representative on availability and lead times.

DuPont TM Danisco ® Distilling Enzymes

Enzymes are proteins that act as catalysts to promote chemical reactions. Very small amounts of an enzyme can cause a significant, but specific change in a large amount of material. Enzymes act more slowly at lower temperatures and are permanently denatured by high temperatures. Process temperature, pH and enzyme additions must be controlled for optimum results.

The use of fermentation nutrients in alcoholic fermentations is well documented. In addition to fermentable sugars, yeast require nitrogen (free amino nitrogen), vitamins, minerals, sterols and more in order to build biomass and reach the cell density required for a healthy fermentation. While fruit and grain substrates supply the carbohydrates required for fermentable sugars, they often lack these other key nutritional components. When these key nutritional components are not made available, and yeast grow under stressful conditions, fermentations are often sluggish, inconsistent, incomplete and produce undesirable metabolites such as hydrogen sulfide that can carry over into the distillate.Gusmer’s MicroEssentials fermentation nutrients, designed specifically for alcoholic fermentations, are based on findings from the latest research and incorporate premium ingredients. Our complex supplements contain highly refined polypeptides and amino acids, a full spectrum of essential vitamins, minerals and yeast survival factors for a rich source of compounds that are highly assimilable by yeast. These nutrients are produced locally in our own facility, under GMP conditions. Used to support yeast growth, protein synthesis, general metabolism, and alcohol tolerance, MicroEssentials contribute greatly to vigorous fermentations, consistent congener production and help guard against the formation of unwanted metabolites. Yeast Nutrients for Distillation MicroEssentials Powder is a full spectrum nutrient blend in a powdered form, which is dosed into the fermenter during inoculation, and as required throughout the alcoholic fermentation. It is recommended for all fruit and grain based spirits, especially when the FAN (free amino nitrogen) is known to be low or fermentation conditions prove to be challenging. MicroEssentials Complete -TR is a time-release fermentation nutrient. Alcoholic fermentations often require incremental additions of nutrients during the early stages as a means to manage the fermentation. The demand is greatest during the exponential phase of the yeast growth cycle, when the cells require more organic nitrogen-rich compounds to reach the desired level of biomass. Incremental addition assures nutrient availability to these later generations of yeast. MicroEssentials Complete was developed as a solution to the difficulties of incremental additions. Nutrients are compressed into tablets creating a distinct time-release profile, delivering the proper dose and composition as needed – but with a single addition. Both tablets are added together in equal parts at the onset of inoculation. One tablet contains a higher percentage of organically derived nitrogen, along with inorganic nitrogen, vitamins, minerals and yeast survival factors, and has a fast dissolution rate. This tablet provides the nutrients required to build biomass during the exponential phase. The other tablet is formulated with the same ingredients, but has a higher percentage of inorganic nitrogen and a slower dissolution rate. Together, these two tablets provide the right composition of nutrients at the right time.

Yeast for DistillationMore than ever before, distillers are offering a wide array of unique and interesting distilled products, utilizing both the science of fermentation and the art of the craft to produce quality products that are differentiated and stand out to discerning consumers. As a supplier of yeast to the alcoholic beverage industry for decades, Gusmer has many strains of specialized yeast that were selected for their abilities to perform alcoholic fermentations and make positive contributions to the organoleptic profile. Yeast strains with proven kinetics and the ability to produce aromatic and mouthfeel constituents, or the inability to produce certain negative metabolites – such as hydrogen sulfide. We work exclusively with Chr. Hansen and Renaissance Yeast, two leaders in the production of yeast for the beverage industry and offer both the traditional Saccharomyces strains and the newly commercialized Non-Saccharomyces strains.

Chr. Hansen Yeast Strains Chr. Hansen’s mixed culture strains are an ideal blend of Saccharomyces and Non-Saccharomyces yeast specifically developed to enhance flavors, aromas and mouthfeel constituents, yet assure reliable fermentations. These yeast blends provide the positive attributes and complexities of a “wild-fermentation”, but with great control and consistency. They are especially well suited for Gin, Brandy and fruit Brandy. MelodyTM – (60% Saccharomyces cerevisiae / 20% Lachancea thermotolerans / 20% Torulaspora delbrueckii) Harmony – (80% Saccharomyces cerevisiae / 10% Lachancea thermotolerans / 10% Torulaspora delbrueckii)Rhythm – (60% Saccharomyces cerevisiae / 40% Lachancea thermotolerans)

MeritTM - (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) – strong fermentation kinetics and alcohol tolerant up to 17% v/v. Ideal for any fruit and grain fermentation, or restarting stuck fermentations. Widely used in the industry and known as a low producer of hydrogen sulfide.

JazzTM - (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) – direct vessel starter (DVS) strain that eliminates the rehydration step. Jazz is delivered as Active Dry Yeast.

Renaissance has developed a new line of yeast strains that have a natural inability to produce hydrogen sulfide. Hydrogen sulfide, a known fermentation defect, can carry over in the distillation. Even at trace amounts, hydrogen sulfide can bind up desirable aromatic compounds. Renaissance Yeast strains are known for their clean fermentations, bright aromas, and for producing aromatic distillates. VivaTM – (Saccharomyces cerevisiae bayanus) Clean fermenting yeast AvanteTM – (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) Excellent choice for TequilaOssiaTM – (Saccharomyces cerevisiae hybrid) Organic Yeast for the production of organic spirits

DDW, The Color House Caramel for BeveragesCaramel ColorCaramel color is widely used in dark spirits and liqueurs to standardized color hue and intensity, allowing for specific color specifications, batch to batch consistency, and in some cases, protection of flavors and aromas from light damage. DDW produces a wide range of caramel colorings for distilling applications, each at a different hue index and color intensity. Formulated for good alcohol solubility and overall stability, these colorings are produced from the highest quality ingredients, are neutral in flavor and aroma, and comply with global regulations for caramel coloring.

Gusmer offers a range of Class I and IV caramel colorings to the distilling industry for use in dark spirits and liqueurs. These colorings have a net negative charge for stability with tannins and have a proven record for stability in the bottle over a wide range of ingredients and conditions. Bottle stability is important, as incompatible colorings can react with constituents in the spirit or liqueur to form an irreversible precipitant. Colorings also range in levels of alcohol solubility. High levels of alcohol may result in a reversable precipitant once the alcohol solubility has been exceeded; however, this precipitant will typically go back into solution once the alcohol level is reduced by dilution. Stability testing is recommended when colorings are evaluated.

DDW caramel colorings are available through Gusmer in various pack sizes and concentrations. In addition, Gusmer offers DDW natural flavors, which are produced from 100% caramelized apple juice concentrate and caramelized sugar that retain their natural flavors, aromas and add color.

WhiskyWhile single barrel whisky rarely utilizes caramel coloring, Class I and IV colorings are common in Irish, Canadian and other types of whisky. The historical definition of Scotch whisky specifically states that Class I caramel color may be utilized. RumDark, spiced and aged rums typically utilize Class I colorings, due to their high alcohol solubility. TequilaBoth Class I and IV colorings are used in 100% agave Mexican Tequilas under the Reposado and Anejo classifications. Caramel coloring is common in less than 100% agave Tequilas to ensure a golden color. BrandyClass IV colorings are frequently used in Brandy, including Brandy produced from fruit other than grape (i.e. apple, apricot, cherry, pear).

“ We found that Gusmer filter sheets are superior compared to other filter companies we’ve used. They do exactly what they were designed for with each grade. When we filter a product, we test from beginning to middle to end and test for clarity, quality and consistency throughout. Their knowledge and experience in this industry are very helpful. Big shout out to our technical sales rep; anytime we run into a problem with a product or before we do a bench trial, he’s always there to give us the information we need and not just trying to sell us something. That’s rare in the business world we live in and that’s why we choose and trust Gusmer. ” Warren Gardner, Master Distiller

Gusmer Enterprises Cellu-Stack® Filters

Gusmer EnterprisesCellu-Stack® Housings Gusmer Enterprises also offers a complete line of Cellu-Stack filter housings designed as a cost-effective system for high capacity liquid filtration applications. The versatile sanitary housing line accommodates either 12” or 16” diameter Cellu-Stack filter cartridges with the effective filtration surface area ranging from 17.7 ft2 - 160.0 ft2. All housings are available in 1, 2, 3, or 4-cartridge versions, which can be modified with the use of Cellu-Stack adapters to accept fewer cartridges for partial batch runs or other applications requiring fewer cartridges. ASME stamped housings are also available if required.

Cellu-Stack Application Notes: • Place a quick acting check valve at the housing outlet to avoid integrity

breaches that can be caused by backpressure

• Double check that all cartridge gaskets are in place and in good condition to ensure optimal sealing

• If filter life is not fully exhausted by a single filtration, DO NOT remove used filters from the housing for storage between uses. Instead, used filters can be stored IN the housing for short term periods by following these steps:

- Shut Down: After completion of the filtration cycle, sanitize the filters with the same method used to prepare the filters (i.e. steam or hot water flush)

- Storage: Drain the housing, apply 2 psi gas pressure (i.e. CO2, nitrogen) while the housing is still warm (to avoid a vacuum upon cooling) and close all ports

- Restart: When restarting for another filtration cycle, repeat the sanitization procedure just as you would for normal filter preparation

Max. Operating 176 oF (80 oC) Temperature Steam in Place - 253 oF (123 oC) 3 cyclesMax. Differential 30 psid (2.1 bar) Pressure Recommended 2.5 gal/ft2 Rinse Volume (100L/m2)
