Whirlfoc vs. Super Moss HB--or are they the same?!

[brackbrew]

Just came across an ad for "Super Moss HB" and wondered if anyone had used it. Was curious to know if it cleared wort better than Whirfloc tabs or if they're equally efficient.

Thanks!

Sorry can't offer a comparison, as I have not used Whirfloc, however super moss is excellent at clearing beer. Just add 15 minutes before the end of the boil.

Super Moss is just the active ingredient in things like Irish Moss, Whirlfloc, etc......carrageenan. What it is, I dunno, but it works. I used just the tiny amount specified (1/4 t. ONLY), and it works just as well as Whirlfloc.

has anyone had issues with Supermoss HB hardening in the container?
