The Magnums 43 and 675 – Ceramic Amphora for traditional wine making
After more than two years of R & D and substantial investment, Living Water Floworms is proud to announce the immediate availability of The Magnums; slip cast Ceramic Amphora for organic and biodynamic wine making.
Inspired by the huge success of the Natural Selection Theory, “Project Egg”, and in deference to the astonishing work of Josko Gravner, The Magnums are available in two models; The Magnum 42 for small scale boutique winemakers and The Magnum 675 for larger scale wine making enterprise.
The Magnum 43
The Magnum 43 has a 42 litre capacity and can be supplied with a removable ceramic base or laminated Tasmanian Blackwood stand. All fixtures are Australian Standards Food Grade Compliant and the 102mm top opening can be capped with cork, beeswax or a combination of both. The top opening also allows for secure placement of the airlock and thermometer.
The Magnum 675
Arguably the largest slip cast ceramic object ever made, and like it’s smaller counterpart, structural integrity and micro porosity is retained in the 12mm thick walls. The iconic “egg” shape promotes passive convection within, allowing developing wine to “live and breathe”.
Carrying 675 litres of liquid, The Magnum 675 is ideally suited to large scale winemaking.
