Tartaric acid and potassium, which are naturally present in grapes, can salify in wine resulting in the formation of **insoluble bitartrate salts** that in most cases are not appreciated by the increasingly demanding wine consumers. The formation of **potassium bitartrate** and its eventual precipitation, in addition to its concentration, is due to **particular chemical/physical conditions** such as pH value, storage temperature, % ethanol, presence of protective colloids.

Easycheck makes it possible to monitor the **tartaric stability of wines** with extreme accuracy and precision thanks to **ISO precipitation tests** that can be carried out down to -4 °C.  
Easycheck also allows **detailed management of results**, both in terms of graphs and conductivity, and enables evaluation of the most suitable treatments for achieving tartaric stability.

#### Analysis tests carried out with Easycheck tartaric stability analyzer by our specialist Fabrizio Squartecchia.
