Details
Bentonite is a fining product can be added during fermentation or after fermentation. Holds a negative charge, so may be used in conjunction with a positive charge fining agent eg islinglass or sparkolloid.
Use 10g per 5 litre / 1 gallon of homemade wine as finings for home winemaking.
Will not clear all hazes eg pectin hazes.
Highly absorbing, so protect from humidity & odours.
Before use, test odour in an aqueous (water) solution.
Rack your wine first. Add & vigorously stir in a 15 times larger amount of cooled boiled water (ie for 10g use 150ml water). Leave to swell for 6 hours, stirring from time to time. Then add to must and shake or mix through. Once wine has cleared (may take anywhere from a few hours to 2 weeks), rack wine leaving behind the sediment.
