Malolactic Bacteria Culture Enoferm Beta, 2.5 gr. Freeze Dried. BETA was selected for its excellent activity under difficult wine conditions. It differs from ALPHA by being more fruit forward with varietal character. It is best used to support the tannin structure and red berry fruit, and also to enhance floral aromas by increasing levels of B-damascenone. Potential for production of buttery flavour compounds is low. Maximum alcohol tolerance is 14.5%, total SO2 additions should be below 50 ppm, pH should be no lower than 3.2. Under difficult stress conditions, Acti-ML nutrient (QR38) should be used.
