Cleaning equipment is probably the most important piece of equipment a winemaker can own! This is because prevention is the best way to handle a spoilage problem. A great deal of most microbial problems in our wines can be avoided by keeping the winery clean and maintaining a protocol of cleaning and sanitizing every time you work in the winery. However, we can only sanitize a surface if it is clean, so MoreWine! offers the following brushes, scrub pads, and cleaning balls to help get the job done.
Complete information on cleaning & sanitizing can be found in our Cleaning & Sanitizing manual.
