filtration featuring maria peterson from scott labs

If it were possible to have a riveting conversation about filtering wine, there are very few people I’d consider.  Scott labs has such an enigmatic guru.  Maria Peterson is a filtration specialist, one who has the uncommon ability to translate technical expertise into practical winery practice.  This is a sponsored episode—something I arranged with Scott Labs in order to support the podcast and extend that as a technical resource for filtration, one of the most difficult aspects of commercial winemaking.  My conversation with Maria covers the wine filtration technology available today with a focus on small winery production.   We get out into the technical weeds discussing enzyme usage, temperature influences, filter regeneration, NTU vs. filterability, surface area calculations and basic equipment evaluations.  Make sure and check out the resources; videos and articles that Scott Labs has available on their website.
