Description
A cream-white, free-flowing, homogeneous blend of fine particulate solids of medium strength alkaline salts and proprietary FG surfactants.
Application
Oak Restorer® CW in a cold water (<30 ºC) aqueous solution removes wine tartar, wine-colour film, protein and organic soil to completely clean internal oak surfaces and rinse cleanly.
Principal Features
- Oak Restorer® has been proven to be non-tainting to wine and oak.
- Supports WH&S. Low VOC, no reactivity in water, no toxic vapour, non-dangerous good for transport and handling.
- Readily solubilised in water. Low chemical demand at 1-2% of water volume.
- In testing, Oak Restorer® cleans more thoroughly, to a greater depth than the current accepted practice of hot water pressure washing.
- Thoroughly cleans the internal contact surfaces extending the effective working life of oak storage vessels as wine maturation vessels. Prospectively reduces spending on barrels.
- Low to moderate foaming properties, non-corrosive to surfaces.
- Rinses cleanly with potable water at ambient temperature.
- Highly biodegradable (<30 days).
- Lowest input cost per litre of wine processed when used in a barrel soak regime.
