Inactivated yeasts (glutathion)

COEI-1-LEVGLU Inactivated yeasts with guaranteed glutathione levels

  1. Object, origin and scope of application

These inactivated dry yeasts (IDY) with guaranteed glutathione levels are characterised by higher levels of reduced glutathione than those contained in standard inactivated yeasts. They are used to limit oxidation phenomena in musts and wines.

Inactivated yeasts

COEI-1-INAYEA Inactivated yeasts

  1. Object, origin and scope of application

Inactivated yeasts are used as nutrients for yeasts at the beginning of and during alcoholic fermentation, and also to encourage the rehydration of active dry yeasts.

Saccharomyces SPP. selected yeasts

COEI-1-SACCHA Saccharomyces spp. Selected yeasts

  1. Object, origin and field of application

 

Saccharomyces spp. selected yeasts can be used for the inoculation of grapes, musts and wine according to resolution OENO-MICRO 14-546 in order to initiate and/or ensure completion of alcoholic fermentation and the production of special wines.

Skim milk

COEI-1-LAIECR Skim milk

  1. Object, ORIGIN and field of APPLICATION

Skimmed cow’s milk can be used to clarify wine. Its coagulation traps particles which are eliminated in the sediments. It must not introduce a taint into the wine.

The use of skimmed cow’s milk may give rise to possible residual proteins in wine which may provoke a possible allergic reaction for some individuals.

Kaolin

COEI-1-KAOLIN Kaolin

Kaolinum

  1. Objective, Origin and Scope of Application

Kaolin is a natural hydrated aluminum silicate.

It is used as a clarification agent in wines.

Gum arabic

COEI-1-GOMARA Gum arabic

Gumme arabicum

Acaciae gummi

SIN No.414

  1. Objective, origin and scope of application

Gum arabic is a gummy exudation which hardens in air and flows naturally or through cuts made in tree trunks and branches of

Selective plant fibres

COEI-1-FIBVEG Selective plant fibers

  1. Object, origin and scope of application

 

Selective plant fibers come from the edible parts of certain plants, generally of cereal origin. The plant fibers undergo series of mechanical treatments and extractions that concentrate the active complex without damaging the structure of the plant fiber. The objective is to increase the adsorption capacity.
