What are nasal turbinates?

The nasal cavity is occupied to a large extent by nasal conchae. These are turbinate bones which project into the nasal cavity with the purpose of supporting the olfactory mucus membranes and increasing the respiratory surface area and they creating turbulence as air passes through.There are three turbinates (inferior, middle and superior) on each side of the nose, and their job is to clean and humidify the air as it moves through your nose into your lungs.

What use does a wine breather provide?

As a wine is exposed to oxygen, it releases additional aromas and flavors. This can enhance a fine wine or expose flaws in a cheaper version. When a wine bottle is uncorked, there is only a small amount of surface area exposed to the air. Using a wine breather or wine aerator, the whole amount of the wine will be exposed to air and therefore reach a more mature flavor.


What do you increase to have more area exposed so the reaction happens faster?

You increase the surface area of the reactant(s), which exposes more of it. To do this, you usually must reduce the particle size; in other words, grind it up.
