Abstract

See full text

A method for draining fermenting must from a fermentation tank comprises: a) breaking into chunks a cap that forms in the tank while must ferments in the tank, b) after breaking the cap, mixing the must to homogenize the must and reduce the size of the cap chunks to a size that can pass through a drain of the tank, and c) opening the drain in the fermentation tank to remove the must from the tank. Breaking the cap into chunks includes: a) injecting gas into the must to form a bubble in the must, b) moving the bubble through the must to generate a flow of must within the fermentation tank, and c) shearing a surface of the cap with the generated flow to break the cap into chunks Mixing the must to reduce the size of the cap chunks includes: a) injecting gas into the must to form a bubble in the must, and b) moving the bubble through the must to mix the must.
