Composition
This liquid enzyme preparation contains β-glucanases able to hydrolyze β-glucans, thereby improving clarification and filtration speed, and safeguarding wine quality.
Speeding up the filtration step and decreasing filter clogging, Rapidase GlucanFree enables also to reduce the Eco or Carbon footprint of the winemaking process thanks to water and energy savings.
Naturally, it contains negligible levels of cinnamyl esterase (nFCE) in order to preserve aroma freshness whichever your yeast choice might be.
