MicroMips is a portable laboratory demonstration of molecularly imprinted polymers technologies. Our operator brings the briefcase-sized MicroMips unit to your winery lab to test the outcome of various MIPs processes on a preliminary five-litre sample of your wine.

  • SUSTAINABLE FINING
    Replace fining agents such as isinglass, gelatine, casein and vegetable proteins, to lower costs, improve yield and reduce waste streams.
  • PALATE POLISHING
    Reduce bitterness and astringency while improving the overall wine quality.
  • PHENOLIC REDUCTION AND SOFTENING
    Improve yield by reduction of coarse phenolics, upgrading wine volume and value.
  • TAINT REMOVAL
    Low-impact removal of reductive and sulphide compounds, phenol-bonded taints, smoke taint and numerous others.

Based on the outcomes observed with the MicroMips lab and the winemakers’ tastings, our clients can decide whether and how to proceed with using full-scale MIPs technologies – in other words, you can try before you buy!
