You can set it in your mudela file:

...
\score{
  ...
  \paper{
    textheight = 26.0\cm;
    ...
  }
}

in property.ly, the following shorthand macros are defined:

autoBeamOff = \property Voice.noAutoBeaming = ##t
autoBeamOn = \property Voice.noAutoBeaming = ##f

so you should be able to just say \autoBeamOff in the voices 
where you don't want the automatic beams or

...
\score{
  ...
  \paper{
    \translator{ \VoiceContext noAutoBeaming = ##f }
    ...
  }
}

if you want to turn it off for all voices (I don't have 
Lilypond installed here, so I can't check it at the moment).
