.30M KCl (potassium chloride) solution for refillable pH/ORP electrodes. Fresh electrolyte solution ensures accurate calibration and measurement with your pH meter. For best results, electrolyte should be replenished or completely replaced every 3-6 months.
To Use:
Wearing Gloves, Drain existing electrolyte solution from the electrode by shaking upside down over the sink. You may need to use the tip of a small pipette or a syringe to break the surface tension of the liquid. Using the same pipette or syringe, replace the solution you just drained with a fresh lot from the bottle.

Compliments the flavors of herbed butter seared scallops, feta and grilled asparagus pizza, or even a pasta al olio
Yields 6 gallons (2 cases) of finished wine in approximately 5 weeks
A dry wine with overtones of green melon leading to a crisp, clean finish. A bouquet of honey and herbs combined with aromas of clove, nutmeg, and butterscotch from the addition of oak, completes the experience of this perennially favorite white.
Ontario Pinot Grigios are characteristically lively with a lingering finish due to ample hours of sunshine throughout the seasons. The Pinot Grigio grape grown in Ontario is typically an early ripening grape (an evolution of the Pinot Noir grape), allowing for the longer development of delicate floral and honey-like characteristics.
Pinot Grigio grapes are often harvested earlier to retain the fresh acidity, giving the wine its fresher and lighter style. Ontario Pinot Grigios are usually described as “vibrant”, pale straw in color and dry. This grape varietal can be best enjoyed in warmer weather as a refreshing beverage.
The Italian Pinot Grigio we currently carry in our Cru International portfolio is a more complex, old-world style of Pinot Grigio, whereas our new Ontario grape offering is a more easy-going, light, and refreshing Pinot Grigio characteristic of a new world style Pinot Grigio.
Food Pairings
The delicate aromas and crisp acidity of this light and refreshing Pinot Grigio compliments the flavors of herbed butter seared scallops, feta and grilled asparagus pizza, or even a pasta al olio (olive oil, chili, garlic).

ProRestart and ProDessert contain yeast cells encapsulated within Alginate (natural polysaccharide extracted from seaweed) that are also acclimatized to alcohol and other harsh conditions. Unlike regular dry yeast, our encapsulated yeast are pre-conditioned to harsh conditions such as high sugars or high alcohol. They are a great choice for finishing stuck fermentations or fermenting dessert wines. To use, the beads are placed in a nylon bag and suspended in the ferment. The vast majority of the yeast stay trapped within the alginate beads. When they have completed their task, the bags are removed from the wine with few residual yeast cells from the culture being left behind. Though there may still be indigenous yeast present, use of the encapsulated yeast significantly reduces the amount of SO2, sorbate or tank chilling that are necessary to arrest fermentation. Sanitizable weights, such as stainless fittings or marbles, are placed in the bag to keep the bag submersed throughout the fermenation process. 83 Grams will treat 100L or 30 gallons of stuck wine.
Works quickly due to preconditioning and direct addition into a stuck or sluggish fermentation. This is much, much easier than traditional restart methods. Decreases spoilage risks due to its rapid fermentative activity and helps avoid excessive SO2 additions. Decreases risks related to color loss from oxidation. Preserves the flavor of the wine due to rapid sugar consumption without volatile acidity increase or other spoilage problems. Use 83g per 30 gallons. Culture can be transferred to next barrel after first barrel is finished. Comes with nylon mesh bag and full set of instructions.

WineStix are a new form of oak integration for wine, designed to give new barrel flavors with an extraction time similar to cubes. The combination of Short and Long grains result in amazing gradience of flavor similar to barrels, while extracting significantly quicker! These are Light toast North American Oak staves, and depending on the wine, will impart flavors of light vanillin, almonds, coconut, and fresh oak. The American Oak Tank Staves are sized to provide New Barrel flavor to a 60 gallon lot of wine. Doing more than 60 gallons? Simply toss in another stave!

These can also be cut down if necessary to dose a smaller batch of wine. Stave measures 4 in. W x 37 in. L.
The Oak Barrel Replica is a simple and perfect way to impart 100% new barrel flavor into wine stored in a neutral oak barrel. 30 staves are tethered into 10 sections, which allows modification and complete control. If you want 50% of new barrel extraction spread over two barrels, simply cut the Replica in half. The contact time is 3 months minimum and up to 18 months of useful life. Toast level is Medium Plus. Comes with eye hook for insertion to a bung. Stavin recommends a wood or silicone bung.
