Directions For Use

Dissolve the necessary quantity of yeast in ten parts of warm water (40°C) containing 1 to 2 % sugar. After 30 minutes, stir and gradually add to the filtered and sulfured must, being careful to avoid sharp drops in temperature. In order to help the multiplication of the yeast cells, the substrate must not contain more than about 2% sugar and must be carefully aerated. In this stage the use of fermentation activators such as V ACTIV PREMIUM® is recommended. Once the yeast is rehydrated and in active fermentation, it can be incorporated into the body to be fermented. It is advisable to gradually add the must to the reactivated yeast, already present at the bottom of the fermentation tank. For more detailed information on the management of the nutrients and the optimization of the use of the yeast, please consult our technical service and the official procedures.
