With this Postgraduate certificate, you will thoroughly investigate the study of enological microbiology in only 6 weeks of academic qualification"

Lactic acid bacteria are vital to reduce, among other problems, the biological acidity of wine. These microorganisms increase the pH, as well as affecting the aroma and color of each type of wine. They are therefore essential in winemaking. However, their control must be demanding in order to comply with the appropriate parameters and obtain the desired result. Nutrition, chemistry and technology work in coordination in this aspect for the production of a food that tends to be more elaborate than it seems at first sight.

On the contrary, some chemical additives cause biogenic amines and the transmission of adverse tastes in the wine. This could cause health complications for consumers, if the product were to be marketed. In order to take care of the grape components and respect the malic acid levels in the food, TECH has developed a specific and rigorous titration around enological microbiology. This program is aimed at nutrition graduates and other professionals interested in the biological components of wine, and is designed to provide them with theoretical and practical training to increase their skills in this field.

In addition, TECH has incorporated in this qualification effective pedagogical tools to facilitate the assimilation of technical concepts by the specialist, without having to invest long hours of memorization common in other orthodox programs. This is possible thanks to the Relearning methodology and the 100% online modality offered by TECH. In addition, students will have a direct communication channel through which they will be able to solve all their questions about the subject with the support of an experienced teaching group in Enology. A unique experience for those who opt for modern and digital teaching, without neglecting rigorousness.
