Joenos Lactic Acid 80%, 100 ml for Acidification

Joenos lactic acid 80 % is used to raise the acidity of must and wine. If a must is low in acid, the finished wine tastes flat and flabby; with lactic acid you correct that precisely.

Lactic acid tastes softer and rounder than tartaric acid, for example, and is well suited for fine-tuning. You usually add it to the must before fermentation, or to the young wine after tasting. Since it is highly concentrated at 80 %, work in small steps and taste as you go.

The right amount depends on the measured acidity (titration) and is stated in the package instructions.
