Hello
I am making red wine using concentrate.

I like to bottle relative early, I therefore ask if I should use a two pack fining agent or if kieselsol is enough.

What do you think?
 
Actually the only fining agent I have used that was not included in a kit was Sparkloid. Based on my experience, that stuff could clear a mud puddle in the middle of a swamp in about 24 hours....good stuff.
 
Ok. Sparkloid is not a two pack fining agent. I think its The same as using kieselsol
 
I avoid sparkloid, it always results in fluffy lees for me. I don't think it is the same as kieselsol.

The two part clarifiers I have seen are chitosan and kieselsol. I have had the best results with this.
