Biothermo
BiothermoDella Toffola’s Biothermo is a complete system for conducting a process of thermovinification – a rapid, in-depth anthocyanin extraction treatment. Thermovinification is an increasingly widely used enological treatment that, by heating the crushed grapes, enables a huge improvement in the extraction of their color. This solution is particularly suitable for the vinification of red grapes and ideal for obtaining wines for drinking young.
The system consists of three main components: a storage tank; an immersion circuit with a boiler for heating the crushed grapes; and a maceration tank. The whole process takes place very quickly, in a continuous cycle with limited operating costs. But, more importantly, it guarantees constantly excellent results and the utmost respect for the products, which preserve all their original properties.
After maceration for just 45 minutes, the must is ready for vinification without the grape skins in normal tanks. There is no need to use complicated vinifiers because the color has already been extracted to perfection. Available in models with capacities of 1.5 to 60 tons/hour, the system is easy to integrate and also adaptable to existing wineries and systems.
Cartridge Filters – Housings For Microfiltering
Cartridge Filters – Housings For MicrofilteringDella Toffola’s cartridge filter holders enable the removal of any colloidal particles, yeast and bacteria contained in the wine.

Check Weigher
Check WeigherA checkweigher is an automatic machine for checking the weight of packaged commodities. It is normally found at the off going end of a production process and is used to ensure that the weight of a pack of the commodity is within specified limits. Any packs that are outside the tolerance are taken out of line automatically. his is not only required by law, but also beneficial for manufacturers to help them reach greater efficiency at lower costs.
The right application of weight control techniques can allow the food production and packaging manufacturer to virtually eliminate consumer complaints about underweight packages. Well-crafted and maintained checkweigher systems can also help the manufacturer significantly reduce costs related to overweight packages by decreasing the average fill weight through improved accuracy.
Typically, a checkweigher consist of three belts:
- An infeed belt that may change the speed of the package and to bring it up or down to a speed required for weighing.
- A weigh belt. This is typically mounted on a weight transducer which can typically be a strain-gauge load cell.
- A reject belt that provides a method of removing an out-of-tolerance package from the conveyor line. checkweighers provide feedback to their operators using either visual and/or audible signals for the rejected packages.

DTMA – Maceration Accelerator
DTMA – Maceration AcceleratorThe exclusive new technology that has changed the wine-making process.
The DTMA is a new machine that reduces the dimensions of crushed grape skins, considerably increasing the surface area of the film in contact with the must. This speeds up the maceration process, enabling the pressing stage to be brought forward, and improving the extraction of polyphenols and anthocyanins from the grapes. Being able to anticipate the pressing stage also reduces the amount of time the red wine tanks are occupied, thereby significantly increasing productivity.
The DTMA has been tested in Italy and Australia on five different varieties of grape and at six different wineries with a reduction of the maceration times by 35-50%. The wines produced during the trials and the subsequent tests showed that the organoleptic results were also better when the DTMA was used.
– Maceration times reduced by up to 50%
– Excellent extraction of polyphenols and anthocyanins
– Optimization of the output of red wines
– Guaranteed high organoleptic qualities
– Ensures a good fermentation rate
– Easy to install, complete with a touch screen and user-friendly controls.
DTX Resine Skids
DTX Resine SkidsWines can also undergo wine tartaric stabilization by means of an electrochemical method, or using Della Toffola’s resin skid systems. This is an innovative technology that exploits the action of ionic exchange resins, which can be regenerated perfectly with the aid of a sulfuric acid solution.
After passing through the bottle containing the resins, the quantity of potassium contained in the wine being stabilized is gradually reduced. By reading the pH values at the outlet, the operator can establish the resulting level of wine stabilization and continue the process until the required condition has been reached.
The units are perfectly independent both in the regeneration of the resins and during the measurement of the pH by means of suitable instrument on the outlet of the treated wine
