This book provides a comprehensive, up to date coverage of the theory
and practice of the major chemical analyses conducted throughout the
winemaking process. It includes a wide range of chemical analyses of
grapes, juice and wine. Helpful hints and troubleshooting sections give
many practical clues to make it easy to investigate any problems in
carrying out the methods.
Instructions for each analysis follow a
step-by-step procedure. Colour photographs illustrate analytical
techniques, titration endpoints, apparatus and instrumentation. There
are 115 matt plastic-coated colour-coded A4 pages. This book is ideally
suited for day-to-day use in the wine laboratory, as a training resource
and as a student text in wine courses.
The authors include
academics, winemakers, laboratory supervisors and consultants with many
years of experience in teaching, research and industry practice.
