The measurement and quantification of diastase enzyme activity, used in brewing, baking, and biochemical analysis.
From diastase + Greek 'metron' (measure). A specialized analytical technique in food science and biochemistry.
Brewers use diastasimetry to measure exactly how much their enzymes work—too little and the grain won't ferment, too much and they waste expensive enzyme, so precision here means profit!
