Bentonite Powder, Volclay KWK Krystal Klear; Bulk
Description
Bentonite, powder. Volclay KWK Krystal Klear.
A fine granular, sodium bentonite with superior adsorption & clarifying characteristics covers a wide spectrum of hazes especially unstable proteins. It has high purity with a high montomorillonite content and can be used at any stage of the winemaking process to clarify juice, wine, and cider. Its negative charge reacts to positively charged particles to precipitate them out. It prevents cloudiness while removing heat sensitive proteins.
Hot or cold water can be used to rehydrate. It is best practice to bench test to find the best usage rate but 1 to 2 grams per gallon may be sufficient after fermentation with 4 to 5 grams per gallon if used during fermentation.
Multiple sizes available. Select your desired size. See Winemaking Store for smaller sizes.
