I am going to rack my wow style wine in the morning.My problem is when buying the ingredients i forgot to buy finings.The only place i can get homebrew stuff(without going online) is my local wilkos and they only have the two stage finings for a 23l brew.Would it be ok to use these in a 1 gallon dj or just use a small amount from each sachet?

I know you can leave it to nature but would rather speed things up.

It's been in the dj for 16 days now and stopped fermenting a few days ago fg 0991 so i would like to get it off the yeast as soon as possible.

Thanks

I've split a pack of 2part across 2 demis (so 2.5x standard concentration), you just need a good measuring cup.
I don't know of any reason using the whole pack would cause problems.
 
You can use the whole pack as it drops out leaving the wine clear. But a tad expensive. If you have a way of measuring half, then store the left over in the fridge you should be fine. I've done a whole pack before and the wine has been fine.
 
Thanks guys

I think i'll just chuck the lot in it was only a quid :cheers:
