Product Specs

A 30% silicon dioxide solution designed for clarification of must and wine to increase the efficiency of protein fining agents such as Liquagel-50 while preventing over fining.

  • The negative charge of the Liquasil-30 will combine with the positive charge of the liquagel-50, creating a flocculating “net” which forces solids to the bottom of the tank.
  • Effectively precipitates proteins in both must and wine during fining.
  • Should be used in conjunction with Liquagel-50 liquid gelatin.

Application: To be added at any stage of the winemaking process.

Packaging: 25 kg drum

Recommended Dosage:

  • Dosage for clarifying: 25–100 g/hL
  • Recommended combination for optimum protein removal in wines: 2–8 g/hL of Liquagel-50 followed by 25–70 g/hL of Liquasil-30
  • For musts, fruit juice, & vinegar:
    8–15 g/hL of Liquagel-50 then 60–100 g/hL of Liquasil-30
