Hoping for some advice. I started 4 different flavoured WOWs off on 10th June.
Racked them all off within a few days of each other, towards the end of July.
Added Finings to all four on 31st July. Then they all went at very different speeds.
Orange and Pineapple was clear by 7th August and I bottled on 16th August.
Pomegranate eventually cleared and I bottled on 14th September.
Both taste great, particularly the Pomegranate.
The other two, Apple and Blackcurrent and Apple and Raspberry are still not clear. I racked off again, two weeks ago, but I can't understand why they haven't cleared. I've not made Apple and Blackcurrent before, but have made several Apple and Raspberry and they were clear and bottled within 6 weeks. It's now been 16 weeks and still not clear. I've added two lots of finings and racked twice onto Campden tabs.
Have I done something wrong? Is it because it's been so warm (I don't have anywhere cool I can keep them so they've just been in the least warm part of the house).
Do I just need to be patient?
Thanks for any advice!
