Finings have been used for many years to help clear wine and clear beer after the fermentation is complete. Wine and beer will clear naturally, but this can take a long time, so finings are use to speed up the clearing process.
Traditional finings, called isinglass, are made from the swim bladder of the cod fish.
More modern finings (Chitosan and Kieselsol) are made from either gelatine (from animal bones) or crustaceans (sea creatures).
More recently, finings are now available that are derived from fungi, which means they are vegan friendly finings. Up until recently, finings made from fungi have been very expensive, but new techniques have now made vegan finings as good as and similarly priced to more traditional clearing agents.
If you want a crystal clear white wine or a beer that you can see through, we have a range of finings to clear your beer and clear your wine for sale here that can be used to add the finishing touches to your homebrew.
Finings work due to the process of attraction. The sediment floating around in your alcohol is positively charged. The finings is negatively charged. When you add the finings to your alcohol, all the positive and negative particles attract each other, form large clumps that become to heavy to stay suspended in the alcohol and so sink to the bottom, clearing your beer or wine in the process.
If you have added finings and your wine or beer is not clearing, read our blog on what might be causing your beer to be hazy and what might be causing your wine to be hazy.

We have purchased this wine kit numerous times. We have always had a good quality pack of wine. Presented chilled this wine is as good as any shop wine.
Always ready to drink within a couple of weeks .

Quite simply add this .
You will have the fermenter foaming all over the floor and walls but you will have the real quality that you want .
Made fruit wines of all types for years and on some as a hobby , had a go last year base level wine kit and so so ,a bit sweet ok if you only want to get well oiled . But this added to a kit is wow for a nearly sixty year old wine drinker just try adding half the bottle to your next 30 bottle kit you will never go back.

Very good works a treat.makes the wine look professional and attractive to the coinesseur.

I made my first ever wine, blackberry wine using this bag after following David on his Youtube video, great product, less mess and easy to use. Thank you David for your help and support with my order.

Easy kit to brew. Pleasant, very refreshing apple flavour ideal for lazy summer days in the sun. Very impressed and intend to try others in this range.👍

Excellent value for money, quick and reliable service.

I have used this main times for different brews, beer and wine and have had great results and will use again.

First time brewing kit was awesome tastes great I will be buying again very easy to drink

This o ring set fits our wilko presure barrel easy order quick shipping
works well

Fermentation began quickly but remains steady during the process. I like this product.

Having just sampled my first brew of Coopers Stout I really enjoyed it.
It still needs to age some more to get to its best, but so far so good.
I fermented this with 1.5Kg Muntons Dark Malt Extract, and use Safale US-05 yeast and added Pure Brews Water treatment/Yeast Nutrient as per instructions.
It has worked well in a pressure barrel. Packed full of flavour - a really nice stout. Admittedly it is no longer the Coopers Beer Kit straight from the can, but we have all these ingredients to hand, so why not not enhance your beer to suit your tastes. Happy brewing.

Once again received my order in good condition. Will definitely order again , already steeped in gin and looking forward to the end result.
Will recommend to friends and definitely order from you again
Thanks again

I've just used these new screw on caps for threaded wine bottles, and so far I reckon they are great. Just fill the bottle with your latest creation, put the cap on top, give it a whack down and screw tight. Saves loads of time and does not leak. Definitely will use these again.

Nice and solid. Remembered to vaseline the joints before connecting.

This is the first time I have made a wine buddy kit and I must say, this is a good quality, tasty wine. I will definitely be making another very soon.
