Decarbonization

Calculation of the volume of nitrogen to be used based on the carbon to be removed.

Recently fermented wines have high levels of dissolved carbon. Although this element is interesting to add freshness to white and rosé wines, it is not as important for reds. This tool allows for the calculation of the volume of nitrogen required to eliminate the intended carbon. It also determines the length of hose required based on the diameter and flow.
