REHYDRATION PROCEDURE

  • Rehydrate the desired quantity of yeasts in 10 times its weight of water at 35-38°C.
  • Stir avoiding the formation of lumps and leave to rest for 15 minutes.
  • Progressively add must from the tank (2 or 3 additions) so that the temperature difference between the yeast starter and the initial must does not exceed 10°C. This stage allows the yeast to become acclimatized and avoids a thermal shock. Example: If must that needs to be pitched is 14°C, the yeast starter temperature should not be more than 24°C prior to inoculation.
  • Stir and leave to rest for ~8-10 minutes after each must additions.
  • Incorporate the yeast starter in the fermentation tank during a pumping over with aeration.
  • The rehydration procedure should not exceed 45 minutes.
