As wineries scale their operations, the pressure to maintain quality while meeting production timelines grows exponentially. For wineries producing anywhere from 3,000 to 300,000 cases annually, routine analyses—like sulfites and volatile acidity—can quickly overwhelm a manual testing workflow.
The Need for Speed and Accuracy
Timely and accurate data is the foundation of high-quality winemaking. Critical tests such as sulfite levels and volatile acidity help winemakers make immediate decisions that impact the stability, taste, and longevity of their wines. Manual testing, however, is time-consuming and prone to inconsistencies—risks that increase significantly during high-volume production periods.
Automation: The Smart Solution
Astoria-Pacific’s automated wine analyzers, including the rAPID-T and Astoria2, are designed to alleviate the burden of manual testing by streamlining routine analyses. These systems deliver precise, repeatable results for sulfite and volatile acid concentrations—giving winemakers confidence in their data while freeing up lab staff for higher-value tasks.
Scalable Solutions for Growing Wineries
Whether you're bottling 3,000 cases a year or pushing into six-figure territory, automated testing solutions scale with your operation. Instead of relying on manual wet chemistry or off-site labs, Astoria-Pacific’s customizable analyzers allow you to bring efficient, real-time analysis in-house—helping you stay ahead of bottlenecks and ensure consistency across every lot.

Raymond Pavitt established Astoria-Pacific, Inc., in 1990. Its headquarters is located in Clackamas, Oregon (a suburb of Portland). Astoria-Pacific is the sole manufacturer of the Astoria and Astoria 2 continuous flow analyzers.
Astoria-Pacific started small, with a few offerings in the horticultural market. Its primary product was a liquid rooting concentrate, Dip'N Grow, for woody plant propagation.
The company later expanded into the automated chemistry and analyzer business by buying back the manufacturing rights of the RFA(TM) 300, which Ray brought to market in the '80s while at ALPKEM.
Astoria-Pacific's Research and Development team updated the modules of the RFA and integrated them with our powerful FASPacII software platform, which gave rise to the Astoria and Astoria2 analyzers.
Today, Dip'N Grow and Astoria-Pacific have become successful individual entities, and Astoria-Pacific has grown significantly to offer a wide variety of automated wet chemistry analyzers--both segmented flow and discrete--for several markets.
Our goal is to provide our customers with the best products and support in the industry.
