Chemical Engineering in Daily Life – Question 61: Do you understand how a wine decanter works?
Thread Content
Living standards are too high these days, and people live in a more refined manner. Drinking red wine is becoming increasingly common. More discerning people have started using decanters to Sobering up. How does a wine soberer work? Can you use a decanter?
I don’t know how to use it. Should I let some of the undesirable aromatic hydrocarbons evaporate first?
I seem to have seen it on TV, but I’m not sure what the principle is.
Such a high-end masterpiece – the teacher doesn’t share it with everyone either, just to give them a chance to see it
Unleash the spirit of the wine. As the wine comes into contact with fresh air and is allowed to breathe, the tannins in it gradually oxidize; its aromas are released as part of this oxidation process, and the taste of the wine becomes richer and smoother.
It is a field of study. . . Why are there sulfides in wine?
I don’t know; I can’t use it. Back in Zhejiang, I used to drink some red wine too; at most I’d have one and a half bottles, and I’d get drunk after that. Now that I’m in Chengdu, I rarely drink red wine – if I do, it’s just one or two glasses, and I don’t need to sober up, haha.
It seems that what you mean by \"soothing the effects of alcohol\" isn’t what I understand it to be; it should refer to those who have good taste shaking their wine glasses before drinking it. I’m not sure if I’ve got it right, haha.
I’ve actually never seen it; from the description, I guess it’s to increase the surface area of contact between the red wine and air.
Is it like an oxygen pump in an aquarium, blowing air into the wine? It’s just a wild guess. :)
Please search for “degreaser” on Baidu. Of course, most of what was said above is nonsense. I spent a full 6.5 years in a country where the only things to do were drink wine and sunbathe.
