Riddling Aid

[Newine]

In Daniel Pambianchi's book he mentions adding tannin @ 20g/hl and also suggests betonite may be used as riddling aids to help in later removal of sediment in making a sparkling wine in traditional method. Any ideas how much betonite? Other ideas? My first time trying a bubbly and I will be moving the cuvee into bottles tomorrow and capping them so suggestions are appreciated quickly

The resource I have indicates that bentonite needs to be added at the rate of .2g for 5 gallons, it must be prepared and soaked in water overnight, so it may be too late with this information. Without the bentonite, the yeast may stick to the glass during the aging period if the bottles are stored on the side or upright.
