Is it a mixture of alpha and beta amylase? or one or the other? Will I need any other amylase for my corn?

Alpha amylase only. It works great by itself, but I also use gluco-amylase it's gets a little more effeciency

This is just alpha amylase. I use this in conjunction with a small amount of 2-row or 6-row malted barley, to help convert corn to sugars that can be fermented. I have not tried using only powdered alpha amylase, but I expect that it would work.

This may sound gross but very true. spit in your mash with this Alpha Amylase, yes spit as in saliva and you will have all the enzymes you will need. one cob per 5 gallons mixed with one teaspoon of this alpha amylase. Hey not a joke. this is how they use to do it. your saliva has all the enzymes.

I agree with the previous 3 answers regarding non-GMO for Libby's Organic Corn. If needed, please contact Libby's for their detailed ingredients.

Non GMO for sure. Def no soy, and I haven't seen any corn on the ingredients list

Yes the corn meal is yellow. I use it in bread baking and as the base for home made scrapple. It seems of very high quality clean and consistant grain.

No, I'm pretty sure they're all rice flour. Corn isn't listed in the allergen section at all.

I think it's a safe assumption that the corn starch is GMO. The vast majority of corn in the US is GMO. I do like Jungleman a lot and it has no aluminum but it would be nice if they changed to organic ingredients.

Now I'm confused reading the responses. One lists corn syrup solids and corn starch. The other doesn't have these ingredients.

Hi. I have scoured every inch of the labeling on the product, and it does not say whether or not it is Non-GMO corn. So, if I had to guess, I would guess that it might indeed have modified corn as the base. But, in fairness, I do not know. Sorry, and I suspect this is not what you wanted to hear. Mary/Ed

Stone ground organic yellow corn, so I'd say it's 100% whole grain.I have no idea what degermed corn means, but suggest you go to the manufacturer web site. They have alot of product info there.We think these chips are delicous!

I called the manufacturer's customer service. The ingredient of concern here is maltodextrin which the representative said comes from the starch of corn or rice, but not wheat. Although the product is technically gluten free, many who are gluten sensitive are also sensitive to corn, so be cautious. Also the rep could not confirm if the corn is GMO, which surely means that it is. eek!

I purchased this for the non-GMO aspects of the product. There is no mention of a mixed environment for production (i.e. with wheat). Gluten intolerance vs. celiac requires different responses .... from the-gluten-free-chef.com;" Although corn, like wheat, rye and barley, does have a protein content it does not cause harmful effects to the intestines of someone with celiac disease. Therefore it is considered safe for celiacs to eat from a gluten perspective.

I have been using this product for a few months. It is very good in my baking. However, You are right to be concerned about it being made from corn. I have read on the product website that it is not GMO. With that said, I have also heard from an expert that no corn should be trusted. Therefore, I will NOT reorder this product. We work too hard to be GMO free to take a chance on this product. My honest opinion.

Corn Syrup, sugar, water, food starch-Mondified(corn), agar gum, citric acid, potassium sorbate (preservative), sodium citrate........Yummy. ;-P
