Use this oenology calculation to document or plan a defined fermentation, blending, adjustment, stabilization, aging, packaging, sensory, or cellar operation from measured wine parameters.

Closure diameter

Closure diameter in millimeters: 28, 30, or 31.5.

Look up the typical consumer removal torque band midpoint for a standard screwcap diameter. The tool evaluates the supplied inputs together and returns the named outputs below; it does not infer omitted operating conditions or change the units shown.^[1]

Removal torque (N·m)

Typical removal torque the closure should show on the line.

• Wine chemistry and microbiology depend on temperature, pH, alcohol, sugar, matrix, measurement method, microbial state, legal limits, product formulation, and bench-trial response. Generic doses and thresholds are not production instructions for every wine.
• Use finite inputs in the displayed units and preserve more precision than the final presentation requires. Independently verify safety-critical, financial, compliance, or production decisions.

Confirm measurements with calibrated winery methods, run scaled bench trials, record additions and lot volumes, check local regulations and supplier specifications, and obtain professional laboratory advice for faults or stability risks.

• Serving Temperature Guide Lookup

  Look up the cellar-guide serving temperature midpoint for a wine style.

• Bottle Fill Height Check

  Check a measured ullage against the fill height band for the bottle format in millimeters of headspace.

• Cork Diameter Fit Checker

  Calculate diametral cork compression in a bottle bore and compare it with caller-supplied minimum and maximum limits from the closure and bottle specifications.
