ADSORBENOL
POWDER
10 to 100 g/hL
Maximum usable dose in the EU 100 g/hL
Appearance: black-colored amorphous powder.
ADSORBENOL is a vegetable carbon with a high degree of purity and limited decolorizing power. Its special structure and specific void-to-full ratio result in a high adsorptive capacity toward small phenolic molecules. Therefore, it is particularly effective in the selective removal of so-called volatile phenols (ethyl-phenol, ethyl-guaiacol, vinyl-phenol, and the like) molecules of microbiological origin responsible for off-flavors characterized by “animal,” “sweat,” “horse,” “pharmaceutical,” “band-aid,” and similar descriptors.
ADSORBENOL demonstrates a limited adsorption effect of anthocyanins and red coloring substances in general, while it is active in the partial removal of some substances responsible for the yellow color and thus the orange hue of red wines.
Vegetable charcoal for oenological use
ADSORBENOL is indicated in the treatment of musts and wines contaminated with Brettanomyces/Dekkera and/or other microorganisms that have developed off-flavors related mainly to volatile phenols.
For analytical evaluation, laboratory assay tests are recommended.
Disperse in water or wine at a ratio of 1:10 and add to the mass during a long pumping over.
For best action and maximum adsorption, fractional additions a few days apart are recommended.
