Polyclar VT (PVPP) | 1 oz Clarifier

Polyclar VT Beer Finings – 1 oz by CellarScience

Achieve Brilliant Clarity and Stable Shelf Life in Your Beers

Polyclar VT by CellarScience is a highly effective fining agent made from PVPP (polyvinylpolypyrrolidone), specially formulated for stabilizing and clarifying beer. It targets and removes polyphenols—especially those responsible for haze and astringency—without affecting body or head retention. Commonly used in both commercial and homebrew settings, this clarifier helps reduce chill haze, improve clarity, and extend shelf life without stripping flavor or aroma. It’s an excellent solution for brewers looking for long-lasting stability and a polished final product.
