EXTRAGEL is a cold-water-soluble gelatin recommended for the treatment of tannic wines where clarification through flocculation is desired, improving filterability and reducing astringency. It is characterized by its remarkable detannizing capacity and can be used for the treatment of astringent, tannin-rich wines, as well as for the clarification of musts, wines, vinegars, and fruit juices whenever excellent clarification and enhanced tannin reduction are required.
RECOMMENDED DOSAGES
White wines or musts:
4–10 g/hL as a fining agent, in combination with an anionic silica sol (Silica Sol 30) and/or bentonite. For best results, it is recommended to add the silica sol first, followed by the gelatin.
Red wines:
6–15 g/hL as a fining and detannizing agent.
Preliminary laboratory trials are recommended to determine the optimal dosage. The product may also be used in combination with other fining agents.
PACKAGING
The product is available in 1 kg bags and 20 kg sacks.
