FERMENTEST - Rapid determination of reducing sugars

Rapid determination of reducing sugars You can finally use a simple and quick method to determine the reducing sugars in wort and wine. Fermentest differentiates quickly and easily dry wines from wines with a higher sugar content.

PRINCIPLE

A fixed amount of copper sulfate mixed with alkaline salts in the form of tablets is added to a known amount of diluted wine. The mixture creates a rise in temperature which triggers the typical sugar reduction reaction. The results are obtained by observing the color resulting from excess blue copper salts and / or red copper oxide.

ADVANTAGES

• Rapid determination of the stage of alcoholic fermentation
• Analysis less than 1 minute (excluding discoloration)
• Clear results thanks to the color chart
• Practical and safe chemical analysis

FUNCTIONS

• Measuring range: 0-5 g / L of reducing sugars (fermentable and non-recyclable)
• Sample type: Wines and susos, discolored for red wines
• Storage: Room Temperature, moisture proof
• Shelf life: 2 years after production, unopened bottle
