I use 1 ounce per gallon stirred in prior to bottling.

I actually switched from glycerine to gum arabic. I als put this in just before bottling.

Hey Dan,
Why the switch? Any advantages with the gum over the glycerin? Thanks.

Yes Dan tell us more.

Sorry I missed this before.Besides giving wine more body and it also helps to take the harshness out of acid. The main reason I first got it was to help retain color pigment in reds and keep them from falling out later.
