More Information
Summary:Disclosed herein include methods of reducing the viscosity of a starch slurry during starch processing by the addition of one or more surfactants and one or more amylases. In some embodiments, the unexpected reduction in slurry viscosity results in a surprising increase in corn oil recovery, reduction in residual starch, and increased fermentation rate.
