TRAP'METALS is a combination of PVI/PVP (POLYVINYLIMIDAZOL / POLYVINYLPYRROLIDONE, an absorbent, insoluble copolymer), chitosan and yeast husks. The interaction of these different components enables the separation of heavy metals (Cu2+, Fe3+, Pb2+, ...) and leads to a reduction in their concentration in must and wine.

It allows :
o Limit the phenomenon of iron turbidity,
o The preservation of the thiol potential of Sauvignon must
o Improve the kinetics of fermentation.


Use
Dissolve TRAP'METALS in 10 times the amount of water. Stir until a lump-free suspension is obtained. For better distribution, add TRAP'METALS to the well-stirred must.
Make sure that the mixture is homogeneous.

Precautions :
Resuspend TRAP'METALS by pumping over twice a day with wine from the bottom of the tank
Leave the wine to stand and take a sample to check the iron content. According to the International Organisation of Vine and Wine (OIV), the copolymer must be removed at the latest 2 days after its addition. In addition, it must be removed by filtration before bottling.
If the iron content is still high, carry out a second treatment. The total dose used must not exceed 100 g/hectolitre.
The use of this product must be recorded in your cellar journal.


Dosage:
A pre-test is recommended to determine the optimum dosage.


Removal of copper in white wine must :
- 20 to 30 g/hL, with an initial copper content of 1 to 3 mg/L
- 30 to 50 g/hL, with an initial copper content of 3 to 5 mg/L
- 50 to 70 g/hL, with an initial copper content of 5 to 8 mg/L


Iron removal in red wines :
- 20 to 80 g/hL, depending on the initial iron concentration


Observe the maximum permitted dosage according to the applicable European regulations!
