Our Unique Process Reduces Wine Alcohol

Memstar AA allows wine to be processed entirely on-site at your winery
Our market-leading technology is a proven design based on years of winemaking experience
Only alcohol is removed offering the lowest wine loss out of any system available

• Hire or purchase options available

• • As a cost effective, on-site service provided by our skilled personnel
• • On a short to long term hire basis
• • To be purchased outright (including a license for the use of the technology)
• Systems are available to process 2,500 to 500,000 litres per day, reduced by 1% alcohol or more

• Wine processed entirely on-site

• Wine doesn't leave your winery
• No need for any portion of the wine to be shipped away for further processing
• This means no extra freight costs and less risk of contamination or loss
• Our unique mobile equipment is used entirely on-site by skilled personnel so the winemaker can observe and participate

• Without any water addition

• No water is added to the wine from any source
• Adding water is a practice which is not permitted in most wine producing countries

• No distillation - No regulatory issues

• The process does not involve distillation (high temperature or vacuum) with its substantial infrastructure and energy costs
• It avoids the taxation, OH&S and other regulatory issues associated with the production and handling of high strength alcoholic spirit

• No dilution or degradation of wine quality

• Preserves flavours, colour and tannin
• The wine itself is not heated or evaporated
• No addition of any extraneous material which would dilute wine flavours or otherwise degrade quality
• The process is a closed loop, oxygen free environment

• Minimal volume losses

• Only alcohol is removed in the process so the volume losses are small. In fact for every litre of pure ethanol removed, only about 700 to 800 ml of total volume is lost (a consequence of the different specific gravities of ethanol and ethanol/water solutions).

• Hitting the "Sweet Spot"

• Determine your preffered alcohol level or "Sweet Spot" at the commencement of the process
• Select the preferred amount of alcohol to remove and the plant automatically monitors and controls the job
• Stop the process at any time or go further as you wish
• Perform "Sweet Spot" taste trials as the process proceeds
