The influence of the seed size and the number of cycles of seed reutilization was studied. The results show that the stability achieved in dry sherry wines reusing the seeds was acceptable for long residence times (for instance, for classical methods of stabilization), but it should be carefully assessed for residence times of less than four hours.
