Our sommelier and wine expert Andy Meyer explains to us <a href=\"http:\/\/wie-man-den-wein-richtig-lagern-sollte\"><strong>\u00abIf the humidity is too high, mould can form and the wine labels could peel off in the worst case\u00bb.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\r\n<p>And what happens if you store the wine at too low a temperature? Well, nothing happens if you preserve the wine bottles from 50%. The problem could arise if the wine is deposited in a room below 50% of humidity. <em><strong>\u00abThe wine cork could easily shrink, air enters and damages the wine through oxidation,\u00bb<\/strong> <\/em>says Andy Meyer.<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>Conclusion<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p>A wine should always be stored under ideal conditions. We therefore recommend equipping the wine cellar with a thermo-hygrometer so that you can keep an eye on the humidity values. WLAN measuring stations are now available so that you don&#8217;t always have to go to the cellar.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n<p>If the humidity is too high, we recommend a dehumidifier with active control and measurement of the humidity.<\/p>\r\n<p class=\"u-subtitle u-text u-text-body-alt-color u-text-1\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/kapweine.ch\/en\/category\/tips-en\/\">For more ideas visit our tips<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fact #52 &#8211; What should be the optimum humidity for the wine cellar?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":11033,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"on","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[210],"tags":[831,298,1548,1547,827,289,225,829,1549,1551,1552,1550,1431],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v17.1 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Fact #52 - The optimal humidity in the wine cellar - Kapweine<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"What is the optimal humidity in the wine cellar?
