Experienced home winemakers know that any non-observance of the technology for making fruit and berry wines is fraught with diseases. You can get rid of yeast films, turbidity, precipitation in a timely manner by filtering the wine. The drink will again become suitable for any feast.
It is necessary
- - canvas bag;
- - rubber hose;
- - asbestos.
Instructions
Step 1
In wine, the strength of which is below 15%, in a room with a temperature above 15 ° C, wine mold appears. The flow of air is especially favorable for its development. This grayish wrinkled film breaks down the wine, converting it into carbon dioxide and water. The film can be removed like this.
Step 2
Take a rubber hose, dip one end of it into a container of wine below the film. Carefully pour the "healthy" wine through the other end. The layer with the film will begin to rise and, having reached the edge, will splash out along with the wine. Remove the remnants of the film first with a clean cloth, then with a cloth dipped in a container of hot water and baking soda.
Step 3
Cloudiness is another common wine defect. It has several reasons. This may be a consequence of untimely transfusion of the drink after active fermentation. At the same time, the settled thick, if the wine is fixed with a low alcohol content, can even rot. Turbidity in wine can also appear if it is not sufficiently fermented.
Step 4
How to get rid of the dregs? Filter the wine through a cloth filter. To do this, use a cone-shaped bag, secured over a spacious wine container. The best fabric for him is canvas, calico or bumazey. If you will be using a white flannel bag, turn it with the shaggy texture outward.
Step 5
Use asbestos if you are cleaning fine mud from wine. Pour a handful of asbestos into an enamel pan, pour wine into it, stir. Pass the slurry through the bag. Repeat the procedure until a dense asbestos layer forms on the walls of the bag, and the wine flowing through it becomes completely transparent.
Step 6
Filtration of wine on an industrial scale is a complex step-by-step process in which the wine material is purified from mechanical suspensions, turbidity, yeast sediment, tartar, microorganisms and other substances using special equipment.
It uses so-called filter elements. cartridge type (filter cartridges). They are used both in the preparation of the wine material itself, and for filtering the surrounding technological environment (water, air, etc.).
T. N. membrane filtration is used in the finishing operations of wine preparation.
