Wine Making

Wine Acidity Calculator

Estimate the mass of tartaric acid needed to raise titratable acidity (TA). This simple mass balance does not model buffering or precipitation.

Estimate a tartaric-acid addition to move measured titratable acidity toward a target.

Good to know

Does TA equal pH?

No. TA measures neutralizable acids; pH measures hydrogen-ion activity. They describe related but different properties.

Should I add the full amount?

Bench trials are strongly recommended. Taste and re-test after additions; wine composition can make the result differ from a simple calculation.
