Sorbate and filtering

[rob]

Do you think a .50 micron filter would remove sorbate?

 

[DoctorCAD]

As far as I know, sorbate is a chemical that (most likely) bonds to the wine at the molecular level. It is not a particle.

Sorbate is fairly soluble in water. It is going to be dissolved in wine and can't be removed by filtration

As stated it can't be removed but I am curious why are you trying to remove it?

Julie,

I am not trying to remove it, was wondering if it would loose some of its power

 

[Julie]

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaah, . I don't think so, it does bind with the wine
