Zusammenfassung:The invention relates to an enzyme composition having beta-1,4-endoglucan hydrolase activity. The enzyme composition can be used in a process for production of a brewing mash, in the production of a malt beverage, beer and whiskey. The composition comprises a fermentation product of Trichoderma reesei and a fermentation product of Penicillium funiculosum comprising one or more enzymes selected from a xylanase (EC 3.2.1.8), a cellulase (EC 3.2.1.4), and a beta-glucanase (EC 3.2.1.6). At least 61 % of the beta-1,4-endoglucan hydrolase activity of the enzyme composition is from the fermentation product of Trichoderma reesei, and at most 39% of the beta-1,4-endoglucan hydrolase activity is from the fermentation product of Penicillium funiculosum, as measured by the 3,5-dinitrosalicylic acid (DNS) cellulase activity method at pH 5.0 and 50°C. The invention also relates to a process for producing the enzyme composition. L'invention porte sur un complexe enzymatique amélioré ayant une pluralité d'activités enzymatiques d'un produit d'expression obtenu par fermentation du genre Trichoderma en association avec une ou plusieurs enzymes d'une souche différente de champignon.
