WINE WELL COMMERCIAL WINE BOTTLE RAPID COOLING SYSTEMS

Measuring just 14¼ by 16¼ inches, the Winewell 4 WINE CHILLER is so compact that it is only slightly larger than its refrigeration unit. It moves easily on its own small casters so that water changes (once a month) can be made near a sink or drain. Yet because of its unique tank-within-a-tank design, the wine cooler retains full-size chill capacity, able to accept up to seven bottles at one time. In fact, the machine quick-chills ALL can and bottle sizes, of anything .

HOW THE WINE CHILLERS CHILL

Many have expressed surprise - even disbelief - that the Wine Well wine chillers can chill products so quickly. First, compare the actual measured performance of three methods of chilling a 750 ml. bottle of wine. The graph below shows measurements made during the cooldown of a bottle of wine in (a) the Wine Well wine chillers, (b) a static icewater bath, and (c) a conventional refrigerator with an inside temperature of 36º F. (2º C). Although the third curve is incomplete for obvious reasons, chilling the wine from 70º F.(21º C.) to 50º F. (10º C.) takes (a) 6 minutes, (b) 13 minutes and, (c) 2 hours and 30 minutes. Why the big difference?

There are two "secrets". The first one (not much of a secret) is that water is many hundreds of times more dense then air, so there are many hundreds of times more cold molecules taking heat away from the wine bottle each second in the water baths than in the refrigerator. The second secret is hidden in the word "static" in the above paragraph.

Even though the ice water bath may be half ice, if the bath is unmoving, a layer of water builds up next to the cooling wine bottle whose temperature is between that of the icewater and the bottle. This warmer temperature layer slows the cooling, although it is still much faster then the air cooling in the ordinary refrigerator.

Finally, imagine climbing partway up a mountain in the early springtime and coming upon a rushing stream of water just below the melting snowline. Now put a bottle of wine in that frigid stream! There is no faster way to chill it in water because every molecule of water that hits that bottle is at 1º C, just above the freezing point and with maximum cooling ability. No static layer can build up in the moving stream.

So this is the secret of the wine bottle chillers: the water is continually flowing while the refrigeration system keeps it close to 34º F. (1º C.).
