Insights from a bottling manager and how Clevertech’s team backed him at every step When wineries invest in automation - whether to reduce manual labor, boost performance, or keep production running smoothly - another question becomes just as important: Will the supplier be there to support us when we need them? At Oak Ridge Winery, Bottling Manager Steven Uline recently oversaw the installation of a Clevertech bulk depalletizer, case erector, and partition inserter into their existing bottling line. For him, the decision wasn’t only about the capabilities of the machinery. It was also about having confidence that the level of after-sales service and support would remain dependable over the long term. “Clevertech’s quality of support is great,” Uline says. “They were very responsive to our specific challenges and committed to finding solutions that worked for us. During installation, we kept a punch list of open items and worked through it together.&

Our expert technicians share essential tips to help you beat the heat and prevent common compressor issues during the hottest months of the year:   1. Keep Coolers Clean: Dust, debris, or buildup in the cooler quickly leads to overheating. Make sure coolers are thoroughly cleaned and clear of obstructions before the heat sets in.   2. Inspect Drains: Hotter weather = higher humidity, and that means more condensate. Check that your drains are fully functional and ready to handle the increased moisture to prevent backups or overflow.   3. Check Air and Oil Filters: Clean filters ensure steady airflow and reduce unnecessary energy use. Replacing dirty filters helps maintain consistent pressure for your grape pressing, bottling, and labeling processes.   4. Check Compressor Oil: High outdoor temperatures reduce the lifespan of your oil. Stick to recommended service intervals and use genuine compressor oil and filters to protect your equipment and ma

There's nothing worse than having a customer open a bottle of wine expecting pleasant aromas and instead smelling off-putting barnyard or dead mouse aromas. Because Brettanomyces bruxellensis (Brett) can ferment sugars and create unappealing flavor and aroma changes, winemakers design quality control programs to discover it early enough to correct the problem. Winemakers use several methods to identify Brett in wines and differentiate it from Saccharomyces, including microbiological culture plating. While the low cost and the average lab technician's familiarity with inoculating a sample of wine onto a nutrient agar medium to culture microorganisms make it an easy choice, there are drawbacks. "Current methods, such as microbial plating, take about seven to ten days for Brett to grow on a plate," says Daniel C. Gusmer, a program scientist in fermentation development at Gusmer Enterprises. "By that point, if you have a problem either in actively fermenting win
