Supplementation of grape must with sucrose has an inhibitory effect on yeast growth, but increases the catabolic activity of yeast populations. It is best done after the initial phase of yeast growth (between days 2 and 4), simultaneously to a short period of aeration which stimulates yeast growth and rate of sugar utilisation.Downloads
