I have a 5gal batch of Mustang Grape thatI stabilized on 10/21/10 , and at that time , I added 5 crushed campdens tablets , 2 1/4tsp sorbate , and 14oz of wine conditioner to sweeten , plus I degassed .


Yesterday on 11/21/10 , I racked off the sediment to clear , and decided not to add any super kleer. Do you have to add campden tablets before adding super kleer.


Should I have added anymore campden tablets at this racking , or if I decide to bottle within a week or two , should I have to add any at that time.
 
What you added before will still be adequate after this short period of time. Just be sure it is clear or you will get a dusting of sediment in the bottles later.
 
If you plan on aging these bottles for a long time then you may want to add some more sulfites, if you plan on drinking these soon then dont add anymore.
