A composition including a plurality of particles. The particles include from about 40% to about 99% by weight of said particles of a carrier and from about 0.0001% to about 5% by weight of an enzyme. Each of the particles has a mass between about 1 mg to about 5000 mg.

Described are stable, durable granules with active agents, which have consistently low internal water activity, and methods for making such granules. The granules are particularly suitable for inclusion in steam treatment processes, including pelleting and tableting processes and steam processing of feed, without appreciable loss of active agent activity. The granules can be manufactured using humid processing air without compromising the stability of the active agents
