Hi,
I started a batch of ginger wine in Sept, it finished nicely at .990, but was very hazy. I used bentonite to clear it, which worked well. My question is how much can I expect the bentonite to compact? I added it a week ago, and I know that I have to wait approx 3 wks for it to settle, but I'm a little worried. It's very fluffy and swirls thru the wine when I move the bottle.
Any tips on racking the wine off the bentonite? Can I do anything to help it settle?
I'm thinking that Luc is right, and I should just let time do the clearing!
Thanks.
