I can do that too. But I have to drink it first.
And welcome to the Forum.

well you start the wine like normal. When you rack it for the first time. Let it sit for about a week. then rack it again. This time and a pouch of Chitosan to the batch only(nothing else).let it sit for about a week. rack it this time add bentonite clay. And watch what happens. You can see the clay attach itself to the remaining particle's in the wine and fall to the bottom. All most instantly. But you have to do it in that order. If you do not it will not work. After that is done then you can add your stabilizer sorbate. So you can have clear wine in about 2 to 3 weeks. (Not months)

Ahh, hitting a wine with both positively charged and negatively charged fining agents. I'm sure nobody has ever thought of that before.

(you don't need to rack so much)

I figured this was another "Miraculous" solution story. Sorry to sound so negative but really folks. First clue was that this person has zero previous posts, brand new to WMT and has no track record of wine making that is listed in their info - Again pardon the negativity but this sort of story is why we have the ignore button.

 

[franc1969]

There’s an ignore button? I missed this, and could use it.

hum, but would it not still taste like a crappy young wine ?
I'll stick to tried and true methods ,,,,

Oh, c'mon guys. Show a little compassion. This is not bad advice. @Robert301972 didn't promote it as a miracle cure. He was sharing his experiences, and it came across wrong on his first post. Lighten up!

well guys I am sorry if I offended anybody. That was not my intention. The reason this is my first post. Is because of your reactions. This is a forum. Not a hate page. sour_grapes Is the only one that did not have a negative comment. And I am not new to wine making. I have been making wine for almost 6 years. I just thought I would share something that i discovered. And yes it is a young wine. But I didn't say go ahead and drink it afterwards. You still have to let it age. I have wine that has been sitting in my wine closet for all most 2 years. So I know all about young wine. And the reason why i rack so much. Did you know that if you let the lee sit in your wine for a long time it makes your wine bitter. (It is true look it up)

This is a forum. Not a hate page.

There's several members here that should read and re-read that advice. Members with less than multi-thousand post counts are not automatically morons.

This instant method takes 3 weeks.

 

[Robert301972]

Well i said mostly instant. Sorry for misleading.

I will admit that (at least) one time, I was extremely rude to a new member who posted something that I, in my stupidity, deemed to be dumb. The truth is that I was way drunk when I did it. I used private messaging as well as public posts, to apologize, and we got past it. I still regret that.
