I have a question as to which is better to use as a fining agent.
I aquired 6 gal. of white hungarian grape juice from a winery in Temecula, Ca. (Bella Vista Winery)It's supposedto be acrisp, sweet, blush wine according to the wine maker. I haven't had the opportunity to make too much of anything besides the kits that I buy from George.
I'm in the secondary fermentation stage and getting ready to rack to another carboy. I will put in the required meta and sorbate, but I'm not sure which product is the best to use for clearing. The sparkaloid or gelatin. Or both?
Just looking for some expert advice as you all have been doing this a lot longer than I have. I really don't want to mess this up, as I have to let the owner of the winery taste it when I get done. I know it's not going to taste anything like his as he has all the best equipment and expertise, but I want it to at least be respectable!
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
