Method for dealcoholization of a volume V1 of a wine having a percentage of alcohol by volume (ABV) of ABV value (1), comprising: a) separating the volume V1 of the wine into two fractions: one fraction concentrated by a factor k/retentate, the volume of this fraction being equal to 1/k V1, this fraction having an ABV value (R); one fraction permeate comprising predominantly water and ethanol, the volume of this fraction being equal to (k1)/k V1, this fraction having an ABV value (P); b) removing ethanol from the permeate, c) optionally, diafiltration of the retentate to obtain a diafiltered retentate and a diafiltered metabolized permeate, said diafiltered metabolized permeate then being optionally subjected to step (b) again; d) combining a volume of retentate, optionally diafiltered retentate, and a volume of metabolized permeate, to obtain a volume V2 of dealcoholized wine, having an ABV value (2) lower than ABV (1).

A system for processing fermented beverages to produce alcohol-reduced or alcohol-free fermented beverages or concentrates, and a method of using same, wherein the alcohol-reduced or alcohol-free fermented beverages have the desirable characteristics of the non-processed fermented beverage including, but not limited to, the flavor, the mouthfeel, and aroma, and wherein the alcohol-reduced or alcohol-free fermented concentrates can be reconstituted for consumption elsewhere.

Provided are methods for rating agave derived beverages, that include assigning each beverage a position on a scale of quality based on its content of MAO A inhibitors or MAO B inhibitors or both. Also provided are labels displaying the quality of an agave derived beverage that has been assessed using such methods.

A multi-stage filtration apparatus (100) for heterogeneous food admixtures comprises supply means (I1) for introducing a input heterogeneous admixture (All) being introduced to the multi-stage filtration apparatus (100), a pre-filtration station (M1) which is intended to receive the input heterogeneous admixture (All) being introduced and to separate it into a first admixture portion (Filtr1) and a residual solid admixture portion (Sol1), a filtration station (M2) comprising at least one tangential filter (F1) which is provided to separate from the first admixture portion (Filtr1) a concentrated suspension portion (Concentrata) and a final filtered portion (Finale), at least one supply device (I2) which is provided to circulate the first admixture portion (Filtr1) in the filtration station (M2). The pre-filtration station (M1) comprises at least one vibrating sieve (V1) in order to separate the heterogeneous admixture (All).

Methods of separating components traditionally considered as waste material from mold-fermented compositions are described. The waste components can be separated either from unfiltered compositions or from a separation stream separated from a composition. In some embodiments, filamentous fungus used in the production of the mold-fermented composition is specifically targeted for separation. Incorporation of separated waste components into various products are also described herein. In some embodiments, the separated components are used in alternative meat products and other foods designed for human consumption. Separated components can also be used in animal feed, as feed stock for other fermentation processes, or for use in treating food, creating cosmetics, or chemical processes.
