Proferm Red
SIHA PROFERM Red yeast nutrient is a 100% organic nutrient preparation with specially treated yeast cell wall extracts. The special production process enables a high accumulation of polysaccharides and essential yeast nutrients such as amino acids.
SIHA PROFERM Red yeast nutrient increases the cell count at the beginning of the alcoholic fermentation, helps to improve color stabilization, and promotes the formation of aroma in red wine production.
Features and Benefits
The specific qualities of SIHA PROFERM Red yeast nutrient:
- 100% organic yeast nutrient preparation.
- High content of polysaccharides for color stabilization.
- Improved formation of fermentation aroma.
Product Applications
The maximum recommended dosage of SIHA PROFERM Red yeast nutrient is 40 g/hL. Higher dosages would exceed the limits for yeast cell wall components as per EEC Directive No. 822/87, Appendix VI, which restricts the quantity to the maximum dose indicated above.
SIHA PROFERM Red yeast nutrient should be added at the beginning of the mash fermentation or to the recooled mash at the start of the main fermentation. The optimal time to add SIHA PROFERM Red yeast nutrient is at the beginning of alcoholic fermentation to enhance the color-stabilizing effect and improve aroma formation. Ensure that the nutrient is properly mixed in the mash or must.
