KITOFLOTT
Flotation fining agent enriched with chitosan
Flotation has revolutionized white winemaking. The ease of obtaining clear musts - ideal for fermentation and optimal expression of organoleptic characteristics - has become essential for quality white vinification.
However, the market increasingly demands wines made without animal proteins, which have traditionally been effective for flotation.
For this reason, AEB has long been committed to improving flotation by developing alternatives to animal proteins. KITOFLOTT is the answer to this need.
Extensive studies have shown that, particularly in discontinuous flotation, the synergy between chitosan, pea and potato-derived proteins, and specific yeast hulls can achieve the same clarity levels as those obtained with the use of animal gelatins.
KITOFLOTT is a powder product that is easy to prepare in 10 parts water, after a brief homogenization. It can be dosed using the appropriate flotation pump.
