Frequently Asked Questions
How do two-part finings work?

Part one (kieselsol) binds the haze particles; part two (chitosan) makes them clump and sink.

How long do they take?

Usually 48 hours, but up to 2 weeks for stubborn hazes. See our guide to how long a wine kit takes.

Are they vegan?

No - chitosan is usually made from crustacean shells. Use bentonite for a vegan option.
