Q : WHAT IS THE TIME DIFFERENCE BETWEEN NORMAL
DECANTING AND ISOMMELIER DECANTING?
A : The amount of oxygenation through normal
decanting in 3-4 hours can be achieved by iSommelier
in 3-4 minutes.
Q : WHAT LEVEL OF ALCOHOL IS RETAINED USING THIS
DECANTED METHOD COMPARE TO NORMAL DECANTING?
A : The alcohol levels retained by iSommelier are
slightly greater than those in normal decanting as less
evaporation occurs due to less time exposed.
Q : DOES HUMIDITY AFFECT THE OPERATION OF THE
MACHINE PERFORMANCE?
A: No, the machine uses a water trap to remove any
moisture in the air.
Q: WHAT IS THE MOLECULAR FILTER EXTRACTING FROM AIR?
R : The molecular lter is designed to specically only
allow oxygen molecules to pass through, however
insignicant levels of other components of air, mainly
nitrogen, may pass through.
Q : ARE THERE ANY HARMFUL EFFECTS IF BREATHING THE
OXYGEN EXTRACTED BY THIS ISOMMELIER?
R : No, you can breathe high concentrated oxygen for
short periods of time with no detrimental effects.
Q : WHERE IS THE EXTRA OXYGEN COMING FROM?
R : iSommelier does not create oxygen; it only extracts
small amounts from the surrounding air. After it is
released from the nozzle it instantly mixes back into
the surrounding air, thus not changing the oxygen
level in the room.
Q : WHAT IS THE FLOW RATE OF OXYGEN FROM THE
NOZZLE?
R : 0.1 ~ 0.2 liters per minute.
Q : HOW LONG DOES THE FILTER REMAIN EFFECTIVE FOR
AND DOES IT REQUIRE TO BE CHANGED?
R : The lter is effective for approximately 10,000
hours, or over 100,000 bottles. If necessary, lters
can be replaced.
Q : ARE THE CHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF A WINE CHANGED
DUE TO THE CONTACT OF HIGHLY CONCENTRATED OXYGEN?
R : No. Laboratory tests of wine oxygenated
by this machine have shown that there are no
harmful chemical or sensory effects to the wine.
Q: IS IT POSSIBLE TO MAKE THE MACHINE HOLD THE
TEMPERATURE OF THE WINE?
R : We have patented this feature for future generation
of iSommelier decanters.
