The present invention consist of an aroma recovery system in an installation with a plurality of fermentation vats for preparing beverages such as white wine, red wine, beers and juices to apply a method of recovering aroma from said fermentation vats; said system comprises at least one connection system, and at least one aroma recovery equipment, wherein said connection system comprises control means such a logic controller (PLC). It is also provided a multiple connection system for connecting said plurality of fermentation vats and said aroma recovery equipment by automatic valves and a method of recovering aroma from fermentation vats of a beverage such as, for example, white wine, red wine, beer and juices.

The invention relates to a bottled sparkling white wine and to the method for producing same. The bottled wine contains a measured amount of an opacifying agent that does not alter the organoleptic properties of the wine; said measured amount, added prior to final corking of the bottle, consists of a suspension of finely divided oenological activated carbon in a food-grade liquid.

A smoker device for the preparation of foodstuffs or beverages, comprising a tubular main body with a frontal opening communicating with an internal combustion chamber wherein combustible, aromatic material is disposed before a grille or filter, and with a smoke outlet on the opposite side of said tubular body communicating, via an orifice foreseen for this purpose, with a hood suited to cover a container with the foodstuffs or beverages, there also being a flame generator directed through the frontal opening to burn the combustible material, generating a flow of smoke into the hood. The smoke outlet is constituted by multiple outlets, and next to the grille or filter an impurity collector is located, closing the extremity of the tubular main body.

The present invention relates to a composition and a product which are used when cooking food containing carbohydrates and proteins as main ingredients, when cooling processed food such as ramen, when preparing vegetable protein food such as tofu, or when administering alcoholic beverages, coffee, tea, beverages and the like, so as to increase the elasticity, texture or taste of prepared or cooked food, thereby improving the flavor thereof.
