ASBC Approved Methods Malt – 5

Calculate wort nitrogen and wort protein percent by the formulas,

Wort N, % =
(A − B) × 0.0014 × 100
sp gr × 25

Wort, protein, % = wort N × 6.25.

Calculate wort nitrogen in terms of percent of malt, dry basis, by the formula,

Wort N (% of malt, dry basis)

=
(A − B) × 0.0014 × 100 × E
P × sp gr × 25

=
(A − B ) × 0.0014 × 4 × E
P × sp gr

Wort Analysis – Wort Soluble Protein

50.0 A = mL 0.1N H2SO4

35.8 B = mL 0.1N NaOH

76.2 E = % extract in malt, dry basis

1.03285 sp gr = specific gravity for wort of 8.256 °Plato
