Randi Natural potassium tartrate
- CAS Number
- 921-53-9
Randi Natural potassium tartrate contains not less than 99% of the anhydrous substance. Natural potassium tartrate presents itself as a crystalline powder or white granules. Natural potassium tartrate is used for making wine, as acidity regulator. Since this is a salt of tartaric acid, it respects the composition of wine more than any other neutralizing agent. In order to reduce total wine acidity by 1%, a variable quantity between 2.02 and 2.12 g/L of potassium tartrate is required. The addition of large quantities of this salt to the wine does not cause any considerable change in its natural taste or smell. Once the appropriate dose for acidity correction has been decided, the neutralizing agent is dissolved in some water, then the solution is poured slowly into the wine, mixing it so as to avoid local concentration of the product.
