MLB Nutrient
Fermoplus Malolactique
Nutrient targeted for bacteria. It helps the onset of MLF, improving nutritional conditions of the wine. It reduces lag-phase and time to MLF completion, resulting in cleaner wines.
- Utilization: dissolve dose in wine to be treated, along with the dose of malolactic bacteria.
- Dosage: 5-20 g/hl. Higher dosage is for when used for co-inoculation.
- Packaging: 500 gram packs and 5 kg bags.
