Additives and aids
Bentonite
A swelling mineral clay used as a processing aid in a named beer recipe's primary fermentation; it helps remove suspended haze-active material as sediment.
Paraffin wax
Paraffin wax is a solid mixture of hydrocarbons that cheesemakers melt and dip cheese in to slow moisture loss and keep surface mould off. Modern cheese waxes are usually blends.
Gypsum
Gypsum is calcium sulfate dihydrate, a mineral salt that brewers dissolve in water for its calcium and sulfate and that tofu makers use to set soy curd.
Gelatin
Gelatin is animal collagen partly broken down to dissolve in hot water and set as a gel on cooling, used for jellies and sweets and to fine beer and wine.
Whirlfloc
Whirlfloc is a tablet of processed Eucheuma red seaweed, rich in carrageenan, that brewers add to the boiling kettle so that wort proteins clump and settle out as cold break.
Irish moss
Red seaweed sold as dried material or a concentrated fining, connecting carrageen desserts and coastal trade with the separation of protein material in brewing wort.
Baking soda
Baking soda is food-grade sodium bicarbonate, a single alkaline powder that releases carbon dioxide when it meets acid in a wet batter. It lifts quick breads without a living culture.
Yeast nutrient
Yeast nutrient is a family of winemaking and cidermaking additions that supplies nutrients for fermentation. Its composition varies; the linked cider and Concord wine recipes do not name a product.
