Pectic after Pitching?

[Bleedaggie]

Have a peach batch going. I didn’t have as much pectic enzyme as I thought when I got it going. Its been bubbling for about 5 days and is slowing down but still has a lot of chunks in the cap. Any reason not to hit it with more pectic now?

Hit it! Pectic enzyme is one of those things you can use almost any time.

and don't forget, when there is alcohol present, you need to add more as it inhibits the action of the pectic enzyme, but that's okay you can add more with little to no impact.

Peach needs a bit extra pectic enzyme as well, in my experience, otherwise it's hard to get to clear.
