A common adage used in Winery Lab Harvest Planning is "the failure to plan is a plan to fail." Resiliency is the way forward, and its close cousin, adaptability, is how we approach seemingly impossible situations... like running out of reagents to run critical time-sensitive analyses: ➡️Glucose/Fructose ➡️Alpha-amino Nitrogen ➡️Volatile Acidity as Acetic Acid ➡️Ammonia ➡️L-Malic Acid ➡️SO2-Free and SO2-Total This is why R-Biopharm® has developed the Enzytec™ Liquid kits. These ready-to-use kits are: ✅Open system adaptable to manual testing or to place on any biochemistry analyzer (i.e., Fisher Scientific Gallery or Gallery Plus) ✅In stock and shipped next-day by UPS from our warehouse in Missouri, or available locally at myEnologist Napa and Windsor locations ✅Stable for two years from date of manufacture, even once opened A quick Risk Assessment: ❓Are you using your current instrumentation (such as the Fisher Scientific Gallery or Gallery Plus) to its full potentia

Ecosystem Science combines biology, chemistry, and physics to model and predict responses like wine grape yield forecasting, water management, and disease vector mapping.  Joshua Fisher, Associate Professor of Environmental Science & Policy, at Schmid College of Science and Technology, Chapman University, and science lead at Hydrosat explains how high-resolution data from space helps farmers plan for climate change.  His research uses satellites to help growers understand how to change their practices to succeed in their current location and predict future winegrowing regions around the world.

(2) NEW! Portable Density Meters  (METTLER TOLEDO Density2Go)   Item #s B000765, B000766 Fisher Scientific / Metler Toledo Density Meters 2 Available Model: Density2Go – Handheld Density Meter Serial #: C052763703 Year: 2020 Voltage: 110 V / Single Ph Brand New, never been used ABOUT METTLER TOLEDO Density2Go Portable Density Meters: A portable density meter, or digital hydrometer, provides automatic temperature compensation and measures the density digitally with a U-shaped hollow glass tube, which is put into oscillation. Handheld digital density meters can be used in the lab or in the field in a variety of industries: chemical, F&B, and more. The measured density can be converted into Brix, % alcohol, specific gravity, API, Baumé, H2SO4, Plato, Proof or user-defined concentration.
