Analysis Instrument for Volatile Acidity in Wine

The García Tena equipment is used for the measurement of apparent and real acidity.
Volatile acidity is the group of fatty acids of the acetic series that are found in wine, either free or combined to form salts. The most important is acetic acid. The unpleasant smell has stung some wines, and this is mainly due to acetic acid and ethyl acetate. The sensory level of these compounds is of the order of 0.6 g/L for acetic acid and 0.1 g/L for ethyl acetate.
