Choosing a wine cabinet

The wine cabinet is designed for long-term storage and cooling of wine. This device will be appreciated by all connoisseurs of wine production, because it is much more pleasant to take a bottle of an invigorating drink from their stocks than to go to the store for it. And it is impossible to store wine in an ordinary cupboard or in a pantry room, as this may violate its taste properties. Therefore, a wine cooler is the best solution for placing wine bottles.

A wine cabinet has many features when compared to a conventional refrigerator. It can chill wine to temperatures between 8 and 16 degrees. This is important for the reason that it is best to drink this drink at a certain temperature, so that it reveals its extraordinary flavor bouquet and aroma. Not a single playing drink will stand for a long time if the temperature regime is not observed.

If the bottle has a metal cap or a plastic stopper, then it can be stored in any position - its tightness does not require special instructions.

The device has another distinctive feature - it protects products from ultraviolet radiation. Ultrasonic beams have a detrimental effect on the glass of the bottle and activate chemical reactions inside it. The wine cooler has additional tinted glass and dark doors.

The wine drink must always be at rest, it must not be shaken. It is this useful function that the refrigerator performs. And if you put a container with water and a lava stone inside the device, then a favorable atmosphere will be created for the preservation of wooden plugs.

The wine cabinet can become the main piece of furniture that the owner can brag to the guests.

Depending on the model, the wine cabinet can offer several different technologies for cooling the drink:

Absorption - is the quietest technology that does not make any noise during operation. It is based on the evaporation and absorption of heat through chemical reactions. Thanks to its quiet operation, the absorption cabinet can be installed in any room. But this technology is not without its drawbacks - high price, strong electricity consumption and the presence of harmful substances in the system.

Compressor room - cools the content by compressing and expanding the gas. When it contracts, it evaporates heat, and when it expands, it absorbs it. The main advantage of the compressor is its economy. It does not consume a lot of electricity, but it keeps the set temperature well. The good news is that the compressor cabinet is narrow enough to fit into any space.

Thermoelectric - carries out cooling using a special plate, which, when voltage is applied, cools one side and heats the other.Thermoelectric wine coolers can make noise, the volume of which depends on the quality of the devices themselves. An expensive model will be practically silent, while a cheap model will deliver noise discomfort.

This technology is good in that it has a low cost and does not emit vibrations and vibrations during operation.

Wine cabinet can be built-in or freestanding:

• Devices that stand aloneare designed not to interfere with other pieces of furniture. Their cooling system radiator can be installed in the side of the structure or on the back wall. It is most advantageous to use the latter option, but it is important not to damage the radiator during possible rearrangement.
• Embedded storage equipped with an improved cooling system, and therefore have a high cost. The located cooling system and ventilation grill at the bottom of the device allow compact integration of the device into furniture. In expensive devices there is a warm air outlet, and in cheap counterparts, the rear location of the radiator requires ventilation wiring.

There are also wall models... The compact size of the wine display cabinet allows you to place it even in a small space. The cabinet can be made in a neutral or refrigerated version.

Various materials are used in the production of wine cabinets. It can be wood, metal, plastic, glass and polymers. Of course, the most demanded are wooden storages. Wood products are distinguished by their environmental friendliness, safety and aesthetic appearance. A solid wood refrigerator is able to create optimal conditions for storing wine bottles.

In addition, the wooden storage, in which case it is possible to repair yourself, which cannot be done if the product is made of any other material. To maintain the necessary environment, it is better to install a wooden cabinet in a separate room.

To store a wine drink in a public institution or in an apartment, you can purchase a metal or plastic refrigerator.

Some craftsmen can make their own wine storage using clay or drain pipes. They will do a good job of maintaining the optimum temperature and moisture inside the device.

Many models have doors made of tinted glass, which reliably protects the contents of the refrigerator from the penetration of ultraviolet rays. Such designs are often equipped with lighting, which helps to determine the choice of a bottle without opening the cabinet.

When choosing a home wine storage cabinet, you need to focus on additional functions. Some models have a touch control panel with which you can control the readings of temperature and humidity conditions. A remote control can also be included with the wine cooler.

The correct choice of storage should also be based on its quality.
