The Problem: How can we prevent heat-induced hazes from forming during transportation and storage of white wine?
Existing methods
Bentonite removal of proteins
Loss of wine during process, change in taste Highly labor intensive
Some evidence that these proteases negatively affect sparkling wine foam
BcAP8 functionality
When combined with juice from grapes, successfully removed chitinases No effect on Thaumatin-like proteins Normal temperature and conditions
BcAP8 functionality
Little effect on Pathogenesis-related proteins Still caused a decrease in haze formed over time Potential for heat stabilization or reduction of need for bentonite
Australian Semillon

Optimize ratio of BcAP8 to wine to find most efficient Increase to a larger scale experiment
More wine, more BcAP8 Test on larger scale and compare results
