Acid mix for fruit wine containing Malic, Citric and Tartaric acid. Acids give wines their characteristic crisp, slightly tart taste. Alcohol, sugars, minerals, and other components moderate the sourness of acids and give wines balance. Acids naturally occur in fruits. Riper fruits will generally have a lower acid concentration whereas unripe fruit has a high…
Used to reduce foam formation during fermentation and distillation. Ideal for potato, fruit and grain mashes Dosage: 50 to 500ml per 100L mash (depending on foaming properties or raw material) Premix Anti-foaming agent with equal amount of water and distribute through mash before fermentation or distillation. Avoid skin contact. Wash with water when contacting skin….
Calcium Carbonate is primarily used in the alcohol industry to increase the pH of fermentations (makes it less acidic). It should be used in higher concentrations compared to potassium carbonate (almost double the amount should be added). Note that your fermentation might turn murky, but it will not alter the taste of your product. Calcium…
Calcium Lactate is used to increase the calcium content of the main ingredient in Reverse Spherification. It provides a less bitter taste than calcium chloride when added to the main ingredient. It will dissolve in fat. It is traditionally used in foods as a baking powder and to make aged cheeses. It is often added…
Use to clean copper or reduce the initial pH level in mashes. 2g replaces 20ml lemon juice as required by some recipes. What’s in the box 1 x Distillique Citric Acid 100g
Copper mesh packing inside reflux columns serves a few purposes: – it provides a huge surface area for the reflux distillate to condense on – it removes sulphides (rotten egg smell) from the vapour through catalytic action – it allows turbulence to bring all the vapour in contact with copper – in the condenser it…
Di-ammonium phosphate releases nitrogen in a mash for yeast growth. Many mashes are low on nitrogen which is a major cause for stuck fermentations. Adding DAP to mashes allows vigorous yeast activity and faster fermentations. Dosage: add one gram of DAP for every liter of wash. What’s in the box 1 x Distillique Di-ammonium Phosphate…
