Achieve Crystal-Clear Wine, Cider, and Mead with Chitosan

Chitosan, from CellarScience, is a highly effective clarifying agent used in winemaking, cider making, and mead production. This 8 oz container provides an ample supply of Chitosan, which is derived from natural sources and works to bind and remove suspended particles from your beverage, helping you achieve brilliant clarity. It's perfect for homebrewers and winemakers who want to ensure their products look as good as they taste.

How and When to Use Chitosan

Chitosan is typically used in the final stages of fermentation, just before bottling, to remove haze and unwanted particles. It works by binding with negatively charged particles in the liquid, causing them to settle at the bottom for easy removal during racking.

Ideal for clearing up wine, cider, mead, and even beer, Chitosan works best when paired with Kieselsol, a complementary fining agent, for rapid and effective clearing.

Recommended Dosage

• For Wine, Cider, or Mead: Use 1 to 2 oz per 5 gallons of liquid, depending on the level of haze.
• Chitosan is often added after fermentation is complete and before bottling, allowing it to clarify your beverage in just a few days.
