I posted in another thread the issues I was having with pulp in my dried apricot wine. I strained the must through fine cheese cloth, this took some time, but its done and in secondary. In a 23 liter demijohn, there is currently a layer of pulp sediment that is about 20% of the volume of the must.
I am curious/wondering, if a stout dose of bentonite would maybe compress the layer of sediment/pulp, and allow me to retain more of the original wine.
If this is not an option, how would you recommend that I top up, and not water down the wine? Will the additional addition of fluid continue to ferment to finish?
Any thoughts or discussion appreciated.
