Description: ~ TARTARIC ACID 1LB FACTORY PACKED ~ BUY ONE - ADDITIONAL BAGS SHIP FREE!!!Here's 1 pound of fresh double bagged Food Grade Factory Packed Tartaric Acid. Tartaric is the most expensive of the acids found in fruit. It is the major acid found in grapes. You can use tartaric acid for all your acid adjustments in grape and fruit wines . It can lower the pH of a fermenting must to a level inhibitory to spoilage microbes, and act as a preservative after fermentation. I notice that some less reputable sellers are getting bulk product from truck wrecks, surplus outlets, and product returns warehouses. I know this is happening because I know what Tartaric costs and they are selling it too cheaply. There is no guarantee of the product origin or that it has continually been processed and handled as food grade. They then package this up themselves out in the garage and offer it here at a discount. Most likely what you will actually get is the less expensive Citric or Acid Blend. Tartaric is the most expensive acid and for this reason we sell only the LDC or BSG factory packed sealed product. Our price has to be higher, but if you buy two or more pounds your shipping does not increase making delivered cost lower and for food grade product. Tartaric Acid is used to raise acid levels in wine, beer, and hydroponics. It is also used extensively in making candy. Tartaric Acid adds "vinosity", reminding us of other wines we have enjoyed so what we're drinking tastes "correct". Tartaric acid is a white crystalline diprotic acid. This aldaric acid occurs naturally in many plants including grapes, bananas and tamarinds. Tartaric Acid is commonly combined with baking soda to function as a leavening agent in cooking recipes, and is one of the main acids found in wine. It is added to other foods to give a sour taste, and is used as an antioxidant. Tartaric Acid is used for making Mascarpone, an Italian soft cheese which is made from cream and has a rich velvety texture with a sweet delicate flavor. Mascarpone is used as a cream with fruit and cakes as well as in many dessert recipes. Tartaric acid is typically used in wines that are naturally lacking in acid. Wines that are too low in acid are flat tasting. Acidity adds a liveliness to the wine and helps to bring out the fruity flavors. Also, having the proper level of acidity will help to establish a vigorous fermentation. Tartaric Acid is hygroscopic, meaning it absorbs moisture from the air. Acid blend that has been exposed to moisture loses potency quickly and large 'rocks' will form making it difficult to measure accurately. For this reason we sell only the vacuum sealed 1lb factory packs. Comes bag-in-bag, keep double sealed when not in use. ITEM CONDITION: Brand new first quality merchandise.
