VarioFluxx ® P<br />
Filter aid for the targeted<br />
adjustment of filter cake<br />
permeability<br />
(drainage effect)<br />
Product Description<br />
VarioFluxx ® filter aids consist of selected perlite types and special cellulose fibres which are composed of highly pure<br />
CelluFluxx ® types. The single mixed <strong>product</strong>s meet the special requirements for beverage filtration and the processing of<br />
sediments/lees.<br />
Permitted according to the laws and regulations currently in force in the EU. Purity and quality are proved by specialized<br />
laboratories.<br />
Product and Effect<br />
VarioFluxx ® <strong>product</strong>s combine the specific properties of perlites and cellulose and thus improve filtration results. Through<br />
a targeted choice of the components, mixed <strong>product</strong>s with specific properties can be produced. The individual <strong>product</strong><br />
types differ strongly in composition and fineness. A certain clarifying effect is obtained and/or filter cake permeability<br />
(drainage effect) is optimised, saving costs and time.<br />
Application<br />
For the processing of must deposits and for filtration of the total must amount, we recommend to proceed according to<br />
the VarioSan process in combination with the eSan filter cloth. The recommendations for application, mentioned in the<br />
following, advise on the required VarioFluxx ® P additions and the processing capacity of the chamber filter press.<br />
a) Recommended application for the processing of must deposits<br />
The processing of must deposits according to the VarioSan process enables the user to obtain a high must yield within a<br />
very short time. To keep the procedure as simple as possible, the required amount of VarioFluxx ® P (table) is simply<br />
mixed with the settlings from sedimentation or flotation and kept in suspension. The must deposits are then sucked by<br />
means of the feed pump of the filter and filtrated. Prior to filtration, it is advisable to determine the necessary number of<br />
chamber filter press plates (table), to be able to finally obtain a largely dry filter cake and thus maximum yield.<br />

) Recommended procedure for the filtration of the total must amount<br />
VarioFluxx ® P<br />
Filter aid for the targeted<br />
adjustment of filter cake<br />
permeability<br />
(drainage effect)<br />
Factories not wanting to use flotation or sedimentation, have the possibility to filtrate the total must amount by means of<br />
the VarioSan process. The result are sharply clarified musts with very low NTU-values, which is particularly favourable<br />
for clean-flavour fermentation.<br />
The following prerequisites must be fulfilled for a smooth, unproblematic must filtration:<br />
1. Sufficient pectin degradation by enzymation: Trenolin ® Super DF 3-8 mL/100 L; contact time 2-8 hours;<br />
temperature >15 °C. At temperatures < 12 °C the cold clarification enzyme Trenolin ® Frio DF must absolutely be<br />
used<br />
2. Sufficient dosage of VarioFluxx ® P (table)<br />
3. Uniform distribution of VarioFluxx ® P in the must (stir)<br />
4. Determination of the required number of filter plates (trub capacity) of the chamber filter press (table)<br />
Dosages of VarioFluxx P for the filtration of the total must amount:<br />
Product Recommended addition of VarioFluxx ® P<br />
Supernatant 200 – 400 g/100 L<br />
Total must amount (stirred up) 600 – 800 g/100 L<br />

insufficiently enzyme treated must<br />
