Predicting Malolactic FermentationNumerous conditions influence the development and activity of malolactic bacteria in wine. Malolactic fermentation (MLF) that is spontaneously triggered too early or too late can result in loss of wine quality. To learn more about MLF feasability and how to measure it, as recommended by Lallemand, please consult the following link: Download PDF

Good Practices for Restarting a Stuck FermentationA sluggish or stuck alcoholic fermentation (AF) can be avoided by using good rehydration practices, yeast protection and balanced nutrition. However, certain physical or chemical factors remain uncontrollable and accidents can happen during the winemaking process, resulting in problems for the AF. Please consult our vinification guide on how to restart a stuck fermentation by […]

Safe alcoholic fermentation: Providing complete nutrition for the yeastTo protect yeasts when introducing them into must with high risk factors. • Balanced nutrition promotes yeast growth and optimizes the sensory impact of fermentation. • Simply providing ammonia nitrogen and thiamine is not always enough for successful fermentation Lallemand Practical Vinification Guide #3 –

Wine Bacteria – contributor to wine stylesThe evidence is stronger than ever. Malolactic bacteria are important tools to influence the sensory profiles of wines. It has been long known that malolactic bacteria (ML) are essential to reduce the acidity of wine through malolactic fermentation. But now, our on-going research is showing their sensory potential as well. Whether a Chardonnay is more […]

Bacteria rehydrationLallemand offers two popular formats of freeze-dried bacteria cultures: The MBR® form of malolactic bacteria represents a Lallemand acclimatization process that subjects the bacteria cells to various biophysical stresses, making them better able to withstand the rigors of direct addition to wine. The conditioned MBR® bacteria that survive are robust and possess the ability to […]
