How Wineries Use Centrifuges for Grape Processing
You obviously don’t need a centrifuge for winemaking. For nearly 10,000 years humans have been stomping grapes, mashing up fruit and honey, or spitting starchy root pulp into jars, then letting it ferment. Wine happens. That said, most commercial-scale winemakers use centrifuges. Why? Because centrifugation is a quick and effective method for separating liquids and insoluble matter without ...
