  • the process of alcoholic fermentation can be interrupted by measures such as rapid cooling, the addition of sulfur dioxide or filtration.
  • these methods of inactivating the yeast are complex, can only be controlled with imprecision and can impair the quality of the product. This means that the use of different species of yeast at different times is costly.
  • Enzymes such as proteases to break down peptides and proteins, are added to the product or precursors thereof in liquid form.
  • the inactivation of enzymes is usually carried out by heating, which can be associated with an impairment of the product and a reuse of the sometimes expensive enzymes.
  • Bottle fermentation agents in sparkling wine production consist of yeasts immobilized in alginate beads (G. Troost et. Al., Sekt, Sparkling Wine, Perlwein, Stuttgart 1995 and DE 39 08 997 A1). With this, the time-consuming manual shaking of the fine yeast deposit could be replaced by the rapid sinking of the alginate beads in the champagne bottle.
  • a disadvantage of such agents, in which the beads are not surrounded by a cell-free envelope membrane, is, however, that they do not have a high mechanical stability and cannot sufficiently prevent outgrowth, in particular relatively small microorganisms, so that microorganisms remain in the product after the beads have been separated off can. Multiple use of such funds is therefore difficult to implement. Furthermore, due to their small size, enzymes cannot generally be immobilized in such alginate beads.
  • biocatalysts preferably yeasts
  • the biocatalysts are contained in a matrix of an anionic polysaccharide and a cationic polymer.
  • the microcapsules do not have a cell-free envelope membrane, so that yeast outgrowth cannot be adequately prevented.

  • the envelope membrane surrounding the interior of the capsule and not permeable to the cells can consist of an ionically or covalently crosslinked gel. Sparkling wine production is cited as an example of use.

  • the crosslinking agent for example calcium ions, beads which are present in excess, here made of calcium alginate, are again added to a cell-free substance which forms the envelope membrane, here an alginate solution.
  • the disadvantage here is that liquefaction of the capsule contents is not possible without dissolving the envelope membrane.
  • a liquefied capsule interior enables the natural conformation and thus the activity of the enzyme to be retained.
  • the requirements such as targeted adjustability of the permeability and a sufficiently high mechanical stability, can hardly be achieved.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a means for producing and / or treating alcoholic beverages, in particular wine or sparkling wine, according to the preamble of the main claim, in which the cells or enzymes are permanently immobilized, in which the permeability and the mechanical stability of the envelope membrane can be specifically adjusted, and the content of the microcapsules can be liquefied.

Leakage of the microorganisms or enzymes is prevented by the fact that the envelope membrane is not permeable to these microorganisms or enzymes.

  • the individual layers are advantageously connected to one another ionically and / or covalently.
  • the microcapsules can also be used in larger bioreactors without the microcapsules being crushed or bursting. This increased stability also enables the interior of the capsule to be liquefied without the microcapsules becoming mechanically unstable as a result.
  • the permeability of the envelope membrane can be set in a targeted manner by a suitable selection of the at least two layers, which is of crucial importance for the immobilization of enzymes.
  • the outer layers, but also the innermost layer of the envelope membrane preferably do not have any of the cells or enzymes contained in the interior of the microcapsules.

  • These microcapsules used for example in wine production, preferentially bind multivalent ions from the substrate to be reacted, such as grape juice, which has an advantageous effect. If the matrix of these microcapsules again has an excessively high content of polyvalent cations, treatment with a solution containing monovalent cations can regenerate it.
  • Microcapsules with an envelope membrane both from one layer and from several layers are known in medicine for immobilizing cells or enzymes.
