Advantages:
- cleaning capacity since the rotating disc has no corners, sharp edges or slits
- Overall control of the cap in record time and gentle mechanical
- ability to control the temperature with conditioning jackets in the disc and tank
- ability to utilize macro-oxidization in the fermenting stage through built-in diffusers to multiply the yeasts, strengthen their cellular walls and combine tannins and anthcyanins
- option to successively use micro-oxidisation in the wine maturing phase simply by replacing the diffusers with less porosity
- The possibility to extract grape seeds through an outlet valve connected to the far end of the marc unload cover
