Clarification and stabilisation
ALCOMAT
KIESELSOL Clear 50 g
Stabilised silica sol for wine, juice and other alcoholic drinks, used in combination with oenological gelatine. The usual dose is 50–70 mL per 100 L; depending on turbidity, it can be increased to 100 mL. The colloidal silica suspension has a pH close to 10. With gelatine it forms aggregates that settle quickly and leave a small sediment volume.

Refer to the current product packaging for the binding dosage, application and safety information.
Add gelatine first
First add high-quality oenological gelatine, such as ALCOMAT GELATINE Clear, according to its instructions. Measure the products separately: Kieselsol in ml and gelatine in g.
Add Kieselsol
Add Kieselsol directly to the liquid after the gelatine and mix thoroughly. Their interaction begins after about 15 minutes, followed by sedimentation.
Practical note
Measuring the two products
Use the table to match Kieselsol in ml to gelatine in g. Do not assume 1 g equals 1 ml or use a universal percentage ratio.
Storage
Storage conditions
Store in a dry, cool place away from light. Check the best-before date and batch number on the packaging.
