Abstract
In the production of wine it is desireable that yeast propagation should remain substantially constant during fermentation and the wine to yeast propagation is normally cyclic. A computer controls functions between limits which are set both for Baume and cell count in a continuous fermenting tank. A Baume sensing means (for example a specific gravity sensing means) and a turbidity sensing means (for example a nephelometer sensor) sense the contents of the continuous fermenting tank. A pump pumps yeast from a yeast propagating tank in response to the requirements of the continuous fermenting tank. A second pump pumps partly fermented wine from the continuous fermenting tank into a buffer tank.
