Crystal Clear Spirit Wash Clarifier

Crystal Clear Spirit Wash Clarifier is a two-part fining agent designed specifically for distillers to clarify and polish their fermented spirit washes before distillation. It effectively removes yeast cells, proteins, and other impurities from the wash, preventing them from contaminating and degrading the quality of the final distilled spirit.

How Crystal Clear Spirit Wash Clarifier Works

Crystal Clear utilizes a combination of two powerful clarifying agents:

1. Part A (Silicic Acid): This negatively charged silica solution attracts and binds to positively charged particles like proteins and yeast cells, causing them to clump together and drop out of the wash.
2. Part B (Chitosan): Derived from crustacean shells, chitosan is a positively charged polymer that binds to negatively charged particles and further aids in the precipitation process.

The clarification process is simple and straightforward:

1. Give the fermented wash a good stir to remove any dissolved gases.
2. Add Part A and stir it through properly, letting it work for 1 hour.
3. After 1 hour, gently stir in Part B.
4. Leave the wash undisturbed for 24 hours, during which time the clarified liquid will separate from the sediment.
