I racked my mead with bentonite and it cleared it quite a bit in a few days. Then I re-racked it with sparkaloid and a lot settled out at first but it's been almost a week and it looks like a lot of the particles are still suspended with no change the last two or three days. Do I need to rack again with more sparkaloid?

Let it sit for about a month. There really isn't any rush to bottle mead.

Thank you, will do!

I wasn't sure because the package for sparkaloid said one week to clear and it hasn't fully cleared yet. I suppose a month should be plenty of time for the rest to settle out ( I hope).
