Inostab MES [CMC] (10 L)

Carboxymethylcellulose (CMC)

INOSTAB MES is a highly purified cellulose gum solubilized at 5% in water. INOSTAB MES delays the formation of tartaric salts (both potassium and calcium) in wine under the principle of stopping the crystal growth by “coating” their surface.

Dosage

0.8-2 mL/L

Usage

Dilute in 2 x its volume of wine, then add to vessel. Mix well. In some cases, INOSTAB MES can create a loss of filterability of wine. Bench trials are recommended to decide if INOSTAB MES must be added before or after filtration. Used on red or rosé wine, INOSTAB MES can cause a loss of colour by precipitation, especially at low temperature. Wine to be treated must be protein stable.

Storage

Store in odourless and dry premises between the temperature of 5° and 25°C. Once opened, the product must be used rapidly and cannot be conserved.
