(barrel)mate is designed for micro-oxygenation in oak barrels up to 600 litres in volume

(barrel)mate is available to be purchased outright, or with a flexible support program

Advantages of O2mate - Why use (barrel)mate instead of conventional systems?

QUALITY

  • uses the same method by which wines mature in barrel
  • allows greater control of the wine's oxygen uptake
  • provides better integration of wine and oak
  • winemakers can realise the full benefits of micro-oxygenation whilst maturing wines in premium barrels; a combination not previously available

COST

  • minimal running costs
  • requires no maintenance
  • reduces wine losses
  • reduces the need for racking
  • avoids the difficulty of maintaining empty barrels while the wine is in tank

FLEXIBILITY

  • allows micro-oxygenation of small parcels not possible with bubbling micro-oxygenation techniques
  • allows the winemaker to optimise blend fractions in different oak types or with different tannin structures such as those resulting from pre or post fermentation treatments
  • ideal for small scale and wine show lots

Simple to set up and easy to operate, the features of (barrel)mate include:

  • a variable air supply to allow you to determine the rate at which the wine takes up oxygen
  • specialised polymer tubing that diffuses oxygen into the wine while maintaining a sealed barrel
  • a total system incorporating power supply, air supply, electronic control, connecting tubing, silicone bungs, diffusers and operating instructions
  • dual power supply of rechargeable battery with battery charger, or 240 volts AC supply
  • optional installation and operational advice available from Wine Network's winemaking consultants
  • spare parts and backup service from Wine Network in Australia
