There are many factors in the fermentation kinetics to consider that may lead to the need for further processing, including starting gravity, yeast being used, and duration of fermentation time. For those that want to process as quickly as possible, you will need to clean up your fermented product to remove undesirable flavors and odors. Here are a few options to consider:
Scenario #1
Desired Outcome: Clear, odorless, neutral finished product
Coarse Filtration: CSF-XC filter sheets or 1925-SD lenticular cartridge filters
Carbon Filtration: 1640 Carbac HCX media, made from chemically activated
wood, shows to be the best option for all around odor, flavor and color removal
when filtering hard seltzer. 1640 Carbac HCX media is available in both filter
sheet or lenticular cartridge filter form.
Scenario #2
Desired Outcome: Color removed, flavor and odor not as big of an issue
Coarse Filtration: CSF-XC filter sheets or 1925-SD lenticular cartridge filters
Carbon Filtration: For more targeted color removal using filter sheets, the 1640 Carbac CRX media is recommended.
For more targeted color removal using lenticular cartridge filters, 1640 Carbac CRM media, made from chemically
activated pine-wood, proves to be the best option.
Scenario #3
Desired Outcome: Clear, odorless, neutral finished product using loose carbon
Coarse Filtration: CSF-XC filter sheets or 1925-SD lenticular cartridge filters
Carbon Addition: ENO carbon (Antichromos)
Secondary Filtration: CSF-SP filter sheet or 1950-SD lenticular cartridge filters
would be recommended to catch any loose carbon particles.
