John,
RE: Searches: I rarely need to ask a question on this site. I always find a wealth of information when I do a search ... there's more info than one can imagine. I have never gotten thousands of postings but sometimes hundreds ( the seach only takes a few seconds.) However, I generally find enough info after reading a dozen or so major postings (sorted by most recent posting date). But I'm usually so facinated that I keep reading more of them for an hour or so anyway (I find new wine information addictive).
RE: Isinglbutt. People appear to be getting good results with either the bentonite-isinglbutt or the bentonite-sparkaloid combinations for their white wines. I didn't see anything that would change my mind about trying isinglbutt. I plan to purchase a small supply of both the powder and liquid forms ... I understand the liquid is easier to use and quicker to clear but that the powder is more economical. I've used the bentonite-sparkaloid combination with good resutls.
RE: Timing of additions: I understood that it is quite acceptable to add both the - and + agents at basically the same time. No need to rack after using one before using the other. THOROUGH stirring was stressed as being very inportant.
Hope this helps ... I'll let everyone know which isinglbutt (powder or liquid) I like best after I use them.
