A good glass of wine cannot be missing at the weekend! Furthermore, the glass must also be perfect: to enhance the flavour, aroma and unique colors of the chosen wine. For this reason it becomes almost mandatory to have an air-conditioned cellar in the house, right? Therefore, it is much better to enjoy the tasty bottles with quality.
Thinking about it, Black Friday becomes the perfect opportunity to invest in the quality of wines. For example, if you keep your bottles in the fridge, the time has come to change this scenario and make an investment – ​​with discounts, which is even better – in a cellar! After all, if we’re already thinking about buying an AirFryer or an electric oven, why not a useful appliance like an air-conditioned wine cooler?
How to choose an air-conditioned wine cooler for Black Friday? Check it out here!
There is no doubt: the best way to preserve the much-loved flavors of wines is in an air-conditioned cellar! This happens because wine is a product that depends a lot on the state of conservation so that its characteristics are maintained until it is time to appreciate it. The main role of the cellar is therefore to protect your bottles from the three greatest enemies of the perfect wine: heat, vibrations and light.
On the other hand, the refrigerator does not provide the necessary care that its bottles require. When wine is stored in the refrigerator, the constant opening of the door causes the temperature to vary constantly, the light invades the appliance and causes the bottle to undergo friction.
In this way, every air-conditioned cellar basically has 3 conservation principles: temperature maintained between 10°C and 12°C, controlled light and shock containment. And what’s more, the cellar also controls humidity and prevents the formation of fungi on corks and bottles. So with so many aspects to consider: what is it like to choose the right cellar – out of so many options this Black Friday – for your needs and store the perfect wine?
Consider the capacity of the cellar
Wine bottles need to be kept flat, did you know that? And the air-conditioned wine cellar is made for this, taking up a lot of space. When you pour the bottle, the cork is kept hydrated and the bottle is sealed better.
In this way, when shopping during Black Friday, you have to consider the capacity of the cellar. For example, there are some models of home appliances that contain from six to one hundred bottles🇧🇷 If so, you need to consider what your daily needs will be. After all, are you going to have a big cellar full of flavor or just a place to store a few wine options to enjoy at the end of the week?
After this moment of reflection, don’t forget to also consider the space available in the house to place the cellar. And if, in that space, there is access to electricity that your cellar requires.
Thermoelectric or compressor?
There are two types of air-conditioned cellars: thermoelectric and compressor. And the difference between them is how the temperature is conducted and stored. For example, the thermoelectric cellar, with the aid of electricity, exchanges the temperature inside the appliance with the external environment via a ceramic plate.
Therefore, thermoelectric models are suitable for those who live in the coldest regions of the country, where temperatures remain around 25°C. Since, in addition to being cheaper and less noisy, this type of wine cellar is only able to cool the interior by about 10°C below the ambient temperature.
The compressor cellar has this appliance – just like refrigerators – that freezes the inside. Therefore, it is more effective when it comes to chilling wines and hence, is the most suitable type for those living in warm regions.
Temperature control
Knowing the types of household appliances on the market, it is important to remember that compressor cellars are more efficient in regulating the internal temperature. Therefore, some models of this type also have different temperature controls for each shelf, better preserving the quality of the wine depending on its type.
Finally, don’t forget to check whether or not the model you’re considering buying has temperature control tools!
pocket impact
In addition to the investment for the purchase of the appliance itself, the expenses that will be linked to it in the long term must be considered. For example, do you know the impact on the electricity bill of having an air-conditioned cellar in the house?
Considering that each climate can require more or less energy from your cellar, the average monthly expenditure is around 30 kWh. So, expenses will be up to BRL 20.00 on account. By way of comparison, a refrigerator and two doors would cost twice as much!
Security lock
The security lock is a extra only offered by a few types of wineries, but this can help a lot. That way, if you have kids in the house, the lock helps keep little fingers away from expensive wines.
Finally, one more tip: don’t forget to check the file Warranty from your cellar factory. That way, if something goes wrong, you’ll have someone you can count on!
