 With the rise of the euro to the dollar and general inefficiencies barrels present to a winery, such as storage and handling of barrels, the Infusion Spiral is a much more economical solution to traditional cooperage. You will save real dollars without any compromise of final quality.  The carbon footprint of traditional cooperage is difficult to estimate although it is significant. The storage of barrels require warehouses which require heat, lighting etc... The useage of one French Oak tree produces approximately four barrels worth of hand split stave wood, whereas the Infusion Spiral can produce 250+ packages with each package representing the equal to one barrel without compromising any quality.  Whether using the Infusion Spiral in a neutral barrel or a tank, the system is simple. The spirals are incased in a food grade mesh and can easily be inserted through the bung of a neutral barrel without having to remove the barrel head. In a tank they are conveniently situated in five 48 inch lengths incased in the same mesh which can easily be introduced to the wine through the normal tank access point. |
