Bottle Sealing Wax is a sealing wax for any type of wine, liquor or bottled liquid. In all applications, Bottle Sealing Wax provides a tough, moisture resistant coating, which preserves freshness, flavor and fragrance. Bottle Sealing Wax adheres on both natural and synthetic corks. It provides tamper evident protection for your product. Bottle Sealing Wax can be applied by capping the top of the recessed cork or by dipping the corked bottle into the wax. Wax beads are easier to measure and melt than wax blocks.
Sold in 1 pound bags and 50 pound boxes. 1 pound will cover approximately 30 bottles, depending on usage.
DIPPING INSTRUCTIONS: The wax should be melted in a double boiled or crock pot. Maintain wax temperature at 180°F to 190°F. The ideal temperature may vary, depending on ambient temperature and humidity as well as the temperature of the bottle and cork.
Invert the bottle and carefully lower the cork end into the melted wax to the desired depth. Leave the top immersed for 10 to 15 seconds. Carefully lift bottle straight up and allow the excess wax to run off the inverted bottle top. When excess wax slows or stops, turn bottle upright and allow to cool.
FDA approved food grade tubing for transferring liquids. Made of Vinyl (PVC). Will not impart flavors or odors into your product.

Thin wall tubing is recomended for siphoning and transferring liquids. For pumping, keg lines, or other pressurized applications, see our thick wall and keg tubing.
Caseinate de Potassium, formally Caseine Soluble, is a concentrated, powdered form of Potassium Caseinate produced from milk. Helps eliminate oxidized phenolic (brown colored) and bitter compounds in white wines, rose wines, fruit wines, and meads. Caseinate de Potassium can be used preemptively in the must or as a curative step on finished wine.
Recommended Dosage:
In Juice: 1.9-3.8 g/gal (500-1000 ppm)
In Wine: 0.8-3.8 g/gal (200-1000 ppm)
Preparation For Use
Add the pre-measured amount of Caseinate de Potassium to 10 times its weight of cold water (do not use juice or wine).
Allow the solution to swell for 4 hours
Stir to dissolve any lumps
When completely dissolved, add the mixture slowly to the juice or wine while stirring continuously (for juice, add Caseinate de Potassium before settling).
Once added, strongly stir the entire wine volume to get the Caseinate de Potassium to integrate with the wine.
Once Caseinate de Potassium has been dissolved, use the preparation within 2 hours.
Minimum contact is 2 days, maximum 15 days.
The amount needed for your specific wine is best determined by a bench trial.
A rough approximate of weight is 1 tsp = 2.3 grams. We highly recommend using a scale to weigh the product for an accurate dose. We do not recommend relying on these rough conversions for accurate dosage rates.
Precise hydrometer for measuring the sugar content and progress of fermentation in wine ferments. Comes with a thermometer/correction scale built-in. 15" total length.

Enhances clarification and static settling of white and rosé musts under extreme conditions
Active and fast depectinisation at low temperature, low pH, or high total pectin content
Produces rapid, compact lees and improves juice quality consistently
Requires lower dosage for effective results compared to standard enzymes
Cinnamyl-esterase-free pectinase blend minimizes ethylphenol precursor release
Lallzyme C-MAX™ is a micro-granulated pectolytic enzyme derived from Aspergillus niger, formulated for use in white and rosé wine production where settling conditions may be difficult. With high activities of pectin lyase, pectin methyl esterase, and polygalacturonase, it provides fast, efficient breakdown of pectin, even at low temperatures (as low as 8 °C / 46 °F) or low pH. Its action reduces must viscosity, speeds up clarification, and generates compact, easy-to-rack lees. Because it contains no cinnamyl esterase, Lallzyme C-MAX™ also limits the formation of ethylphenol precursors, contributing to cleaner, more varietally expressive wines.
Protocol for Use:
Add after pressing or directly into the settling tank. Dilute the enzyme in 10 times its weight in water or juice before use. Mix thoroughly for uniform distribution. Do not add bentonite during enzyme treatment. Clarification typically completes within 24 hours depending on temperature and juice conditions.
Usage Rates:
Standard conditions (>12 °C / 54 °F): 0.5–1.0 g/hL = 0.005–0.01 g/L = 0.019–0.038 g/gal
Cold or high-pectin conditions (8–12 °C / 46–54 °F): 1.0–2.0 g/hL = 0.01–0.02 g/L = 0.038–0.076 g/gal
Store in original sealed packaging at 5–15 °C (41–59 °F) in a dry place. Suitable for organic and vegan wine production.

Sorbistat K, Potassium Sorbate, ensures against renewed fermentation in wine when residual sugar is added post the initial ferment. Add at the rate of .5 to .75 grams per gallon (125-200ppm) in conjunction with .3 grams of meta-bisulphite (50ppm) per gallon. Use the higher end of the range (200 ppm) as the wine's pH approaches or exceeds 3.5 or when the alcohol conent of the wine is below 10%. Note: Will not stop an active fermentation. Potassium sorbate should not be used if the wine underwent an ML fermentation because sorbic acid (in the potassium sorbate) will react with lactic bacteria to produce a "geranium" smelling off-flavor.
A rough approximate of weight is 1 tsp = 2.3 grams. We highly recommend using a scale to weigh the product for an accurate dose. We do not recommend relying on these rough conversions for accurate dosage rates.
Heather has long been used in brewing, but especially in a Scotch Ale know as Fraoch. This herb imparts a nice aroma and a smooth hint of bitterness. Flavors are similar to a subtle Chamomile/mint blend with just a hint of lavender. Heather Tips are great when used by themselves, but can also be paired with honey. About 2 ounces added to the beginning of your boil will be plenty, but feel free to experiment.

Prevent volatile acidity in fermentation before it happens
Add at first signs of a problematic ferment to help limit the production of volatile acidity
Avoid a malolactic fermentation (MLF) in White Wines
Use as an insurance policy during barrel aging of Red Wines to reduce the risk of volatile acidity
CellarScience Killazyme is a lysozyme that is used to control and inhibit gram-positive lactic acid producing bacteria including Oenoccoccus, Pediococcus, and Lactobacillus. This is a tool winemakers can use throughout the winemaking process to limit bacteria contamination and the production of volatile acidity. Killazyme does not affect gram-negative Acetic Acid bacteria nor yeast.
Don’t Use Killazyme If You Are Coinoculating Yeast and ML
When performing a “secondary” malolactic fermentation (MLF) we want lactic acid Bacteria to convert the harsher malic acid into lactic acid. Mostly MLF fermentations are done sequentially with the sugar fermentation being completed first followed by the MLF fermentation second. If you are doing a co-inoculation of yeast and lactic acid bacteria during the primary ferment, do not use Killazyme.
Use Killazyme to Prevent Volatile Acidity in Fermentation
Killazyme can be added at the start of fermentation to limit lactic acid bacteria before it happens. Under certain situations lactic acid can use sugar or citric acid which it converts into acetic acid and volatile acidity.
Killazyme is effectively used at the start of fermentation when you know or suspect a slow to start fermentation. This might be a result of a cold soak or those ferments relying on native yeast. Once your yeast starts to rip, the potential action of lactic acid bacteria is greatly suppressed and the need for Killazyme is reduced.
At the back end of fermentation, slow, struggling fermentations caused by various reasons, such as temperature or high sugar, can cause bacteria to consume sugar and citric to produce acetic acid and volatile acidity. Additionally, if lactic acid bacteria fully converts the available malic acid the bacteria can pivot to sugar and citric product volatile acidity. In a problem ferment where the yeast are already struggling, volatile acidity acts as a double whammy suppressing yeast activity even further. If you suspect a problem finish, based on past experience or current conditions, Killazyme is a great tool to add at the start of fermentation
Use Killazyme at First Signs of Problem Finish
Killazyme can also be added at the first signs of a problematic ferment to help limit the production of volatile acidity. This reactive addition requires a heavier dosage than a preemptive addition as there is most likely volatile acidity already present.
Use Killazyme to Avoid MLF in White Wines
When fresh, crisp white wines are desired, Killazyme can be added at the start of a white wine fermentation, or at any point in tank or barrel, to block lactic acid activity and prevent MLF. We still always recommend a sterile filtration for commercial whites before bottling to prevent a later MLF in the bottle. . Killazyme is also great if you are going to be blending whites where one white went through and MLF and the other white did not.
Barrel Storage Protection of Reds
After MLF is complete and you storing wines in barrel Killazyme is a great insurance policy to reduce the risk of volatile acidity.
Use:
To Delay Malolactic Fermentation: Red Wine - add to grapes at 100 - 200 ppm, or 0.38 - 0.76 grams per gallon. White Wine - Add to must at 200 - 300 ppm, or 0.76 - 1.14 grams per gallon.
To Block Malolactic Fermentation: White Wine - Add to must or wine at 300 - 500 ppm, or 1.14 - 1.90 grams per gallon.
Stabilizing Wine After MLF is Complete: Add to barrel during storage at 250 - 500 ppm, or 0.95 - 1.90 grams per gallon.
When Blending Partial and Complete MLF Wines: Add immediately after blending at 300 - 500 ppm, or 1.14 - 1.90 grams per gallon, to reduce the risk of further malolactic fermentation (MLF). Within several days any lactic should expire.
For Sluggish or Stuck Yeast Fermentation: Red Wine - Add at 150 - 400 ppm, or 0.57 - 1.52 grams per gallon. White Wine - add at 300 - 500 ppm, or 1.14 - 1.90 grams per gallon.
You can make a 10% solution of Killazyme in water (100 grams per liter of water). However, we find the easiest method is to add the desired dry weight of Killazyme in 5x its weight of warm (tepid) water. Mix for one minute, allow this mixture to stand for 45 minutes and add to must, juice or wine while mixing well. Allow 24 - 48 hours for reaction to complete.
These hot fill bladders are a great way to cut time out of your brew day using the "no chill" or "hot packing" method of cooling wort. When your boil is over, simply fill them up and wait for the wort to chill overnight or throw it in the fridge. This eliminates the traditional 30-60 minutes of chill time common in most brew days. Use the wort immediately after it has cooled down, or store refrigerated for short periods of time.
When chilled and ready to go, most brewers transfer the wort out of the bag and into their favorite fermenter. However it is possible to ferment directly in the bag with the use of a #7 stopper and airlock.
Hot packing and the storage of wort at room temperature has been done in Australia as a common practice for decades. Because of the temperature of wort entering the bag, any bacteria are killed. However there does exist a small chance of Botulism contamination for wort that is hot packed and stored. Botulism spores can survive a boil and are only killed through high temperature pasteurization. We always recommend using the wort as quickly as possible once it has cooled.
Hot fillable means they can be filled with any liquid up to 212°F.
The triple layer construction makes these bags puncture resistant, chemical resistant, and gives the bag superior oxygen barrier properties. The first layer is 50-micron polyethylene, the second is 45-micron polyethylene, and the third is 15-micron nylon.
