SNIFFING PROCESS FOR CORK STOPPERS
This process is carried out with a unique system, which consists of a circuit divided into 4 phases.
PHASE 1
Conditioning of the stoppers in both humidity and temperature.
PHASE 2
First thermal shock, a heat contrast focused on moving the innermost TCA towards the edges of the cork, using short-range, low-frequency waves.
PHASE 3
Second thermal shock, using long-range, high-frequency waves, with the goal of momentarily expelling the TCA to the outside of the stopper.
PHASE 4
Sensory tasting and discarding, where not only TCA is rejected, but also other unwanted odors such as petrichor.
