I have some pear juice that I juiced myself. I wanted to increase the clarity of the juice so I added some "pectolytic enzyme" liquid. I added too much enzyme according to the measurements on the bottle. Is it dangerous if I add too much of it? I want to ferment this juice into pear wine(will add sugar to get 14% and use lalvin d47) and I read a bunch of articles about how pectic enzymes are responsible for methanol formation in fermentation. The juice cleared up completely just half an hour after adding the enzyme. Will it be safe to ferment this?
Also, I heard that this enzyme is used in the extraction stage of the fruit, it it therefore wrong to add it to juice that has already been extracted?
