I have a Ginger Peach Mead that's been sitting around for about 10 months, and a Rhubarb wine that's been around for a while as well. They both had a bit of haze, so I threw in some bentonite (I want to bottle them soon to free up the carboys). After 3 days I didn't see any noticeable clearing, so I threw in some Pectic Enzyme.
It's been a few days since then, and I'm not seeing any clearing; they're still hazy! I read on an old thread that adding bentonite and then pectic enzyme is bad, as the two negate each other. Has anyone done this in the past? If so, what was the outcome?
How long should I wait until I give up and bottle them? Or should I try another fining agent to see if that helps? Currently I have Sparkolloid, but I don't like the super light lees it causes.
