Why over the past 30 years it has become increasingly important in oenology to address the process of sanitization of bottling machines? Protecting wines from pollution and contamination is fundamental, in order to avoid spoilage and preserve the quality and integrity of bottled wines.
In this recording of the webinar “Performing Cleaning & Water Saving: Experimental Data And Good Practices” the speaker Vincenzo Gerbi explains in detail different cleaning and sanitation procedures of bottling machines. From his overview of the six phases of a sanitation cycle, to the most widely used approaches today, he verifies through experimental activity the effectiveness of some sanitizing products and techniques, water footprint and energy cost.
