How is Carbon Dioxide used in the Drinks Industry
Carbon dioxide has become an essential substance in drink production today, particularly in drink carbonation. CO2 is commonly used in beer, soda, and wine. When carbon dioxide is mixed with water, it produces carbonic acid, this carbon acid is what impacts the flavour of drinks and provides the sensory ‘fizz’ in your mouth. There are various reasons why carbon dioxide is the go-to choice of gas ...
