Daves DB calls for Sparkloid (or other product) so I went with the Sparkloid for my first DB batch. The wine looks and smells amazing. So following the directions, I mixed up the stuff according to the label. I used half of it in a 3gal carboy and left the remaining half in my graduated plastic measuring tube. I came back to it about 45min later and WOW! Was I surprised... I had no idea what sparkloid is/was and certainly no idea on how it works. What I had in my tube was a gelatinous plug of brown stuff. Actually, it was kind of cool. 
So, newbie question about this stuff.
How does it actually work? And can this be done between my racking from one glass carboy to another? (I've racked everything out of PF/plastic pail and it's been about 2-3 weeks in carboys and lees have settled nicely)
It was like brown jello in a plug/slug. lol.
