Vinificator type BM-P
Fermentation under pressure – this is a new approach to the process. The method complements the typical capabilities and has significant advantages for red and white wines: Flavours during fermentation are retained in the slurry or liquid; the amount of the needed oxygen (O2) can be very precisely dosed; the fermentation slurry is mixed or the lees are lifted (batonnage) with a completely natural approach and in the whole volume of the vessel; there are real conditions for fine-tuning of the extraction during fermentation through the oenologist’s approach to the working pressure; In addition for red wines, during the primary fermentation, the formation of a dry cap is avoided and maceration with CO2 can be done. This method could be applied to almost all models of vinificators and fermenters.
