#Optical Technique Sorts Grapes for Wine Quality (ISNS) A team of German scientists has developed an automated process that sorts grapes into different levels of quality for winemaking.

The goal of developing the technique is to produce wines that will satisfy refined palates but cost less than current prices.

Different colors correspond to different amounts of sugar in the grapes a basic criterion for their wine-making characteristics.

the grapes for white wines Riesling and Weisser Burgunder and those for the red wines Trollinger and Lemberger.

Our experiments have proven that wine quality has improved obviously due to our sorting said Kai-Uwe Vieth of the Fraunhofer Institute for Optronics System Technologies and Image Exploitation (IOSB) in Karlsruhe Germany who oversaw

but time-consuming method used by vintners. Its high throughput allows us to harvest and select grapes

And the winemaker determines the quality by setting the appropriate parameters. So the quality does not depend on the person who does the hand-sorting.

Although optical sorting has been used for years in related industries such as the cork industry its application in the wine industry is said pretty new Anita Oberholster a specialist in enology the study of wine

The wines are currently settling and we will start chemical analysis soon she said. The German process uses a special conveying system to load de-stemmed grapes onto a belt that travels past a sorting module.

The technology that the process uses to separate grapes of different wine-making characteristics remains secret.

Grasshoppers with a Side of Fungi (Op-Ed) Doug Turnbull is a hard-science-fiction writer.

Mars settlers could also turn to grasshoppers as an additional food resource. While not popular in most European countries and the Anglo-sphere grasshoppers are a major source of animal protein in Asia Africa and South america.

They have a tremendous advantage over many other meat sources because of their extremely efficient conversion of vegetable matter into insect protein.

Grasshoppers are twice as efficient when converting vegetable mass into protein as pigs and five times as efficient as cattle.

In addition the husbandry associated with raising grasshoppers is compared relatively simple to that needed for cattle chickens

So grasshoppers may become a meat staple for Mars residents. Of course this would depend upon the guaranteed reliability of grasshopper containment systems.

Mars settlers certainly would not fare well with the grasshopper equivalent of Star trek's tribbles.

Speaking of Star trek a version of its food replicator is in the process of moving from science fiction to science fact.

The grasshoppers would make a better dessert if dipped in the 3d printed chocolate. Perhaps in the future the list of 3d printed proteins will include fish.

Bottles that are effectively impermeable could lead to brew that stays fresh on the shelf for far longer Tour said.
