A new type of wine saver and stopper

A Device that Lets You Repour Great Tasting Wine An expert in the marine catering industry has acquired at least some of his expertise by working with a range of different types of gadgets. Typically, any such device as a name that matches with its primary function. In contrast to that practice, a new type of wine saver and stopper has been given this name: Repour. The people charged with naming that new gadget chose to focus on the function that must be performed by the person that could benefit most by using it. A gadget that preserves a wine’s taste Generally, a professional at a maritime catering company can display an understanding of the distinguishing features of red and white wine. Indeed, the two wines do differ in a number of ways, not just in terms of their color. Still, either of those bottled beverages can lose their great taste, if the bottle’s contents have been exposed to the air for a sufficient amount of time. That simple fact underscores the noteworthy feature of Repour. That wine saver and stopper can preserve a wine’s taste for close to one month. It does that by making sure that no oxidation takes place within the closed bottle. Any experts at a marine catering company that have chosen to read this blog post might want to review what they learned in a basic chemistry class, if they have taken one. Oxidation represents the loss of one electron whenever two or more substances undergo a chemical reaction. Repour’s creator did not acquire any training in marine catering services or in ship management. Instead, that inventor, a man named Tom Lutz had studied chemistry. He had learned that the source of the lost electron, the one associated with the chemical reaction known as oxidation can be a molecule, an atom or an ion.

Such a pump removes 95 to 96 % of the bottle’s oxygen. Repour removes as much as 99.5%. Repour’s ability to improve on the results obtained with a vacuum pump stems from the nature of the stopper’s materials. It has been crafted from oxygen-absorbing materials. In fact, it can absorb as much oxygen as would be found in 1500 ml of air. That would be equal to the amount of air in 10 drinking glasses. Of course, the air in a bottle or a glass contains no larger percentage of oxygen than what exists in the air that might be hitting a countertop. For that reason, this new wine saver and stopper will absorb oxygen from the air, if allowed to sit out in the open. Consequently, the manufacturer suggests that any one stopper be used on a single bottle. The manufacturer sells the stoppers in packs of four. A customer must pay $8.95 for one pack ($2.24 per stopper). An expert at a marine catering company should note one way by which an on-board chef could really benefit by gaining access to these new stoppers. Such a chef would have less reason to worry about the possible need to open several varieties from the available wines, in order to please all the members of the team on a cargo vessel.
