I add it into my must during primary fermentation or even on secondary that is just aging and it has done wonders for my mead. It clears up a lot of that gunk and stuff still in suspension that gives a nasty taste to your mead which will fall out with aging. But i can say this speeds up my aging process by at LEAST 5 months maybe even more. If you have a mead that has been aging and doesn't quite have the taste you want it to have then I suggest that you buy this. A little bit goes a long way and it is so satisfying to see all of the stuff that falls to the bottom in such a short time. the picture above had no sediment at the bottom until i added the bentonite and it tasted BEAUTIFUL afterward. One picture was during primary fermentation and it definitely helped remove a lot of stuff early one which is when you're supposed to add bentonite to be most effective. Review: Perfect - Perfect easy to use and big enough to last a while. Arrived sealed and clean ## Features - Add prior to primary fermentation to clear pectic and protein haze - Used at the beginning of wine making - Food grade ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0064O9B7E | | Age Range Description | Adult | | Best Sellers Rank | #118,680 in Grocery & Gourmet Food ( See Top 100 in Grocery & Gourmet Food ) #202 in Beer Brewing Ingredients | | Brand | LD Carlson | | Brand Name | LD Carlson | | Caffeine Content Description | Caffeine Free | | Container Type | Bag | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 796 Reviews | | Each Unit Count | 1 | | Flavor | Bentonite | | Global Trade Identification Number | 09323318003749 | | Included Components | Bentonite | | Item Form | Powder | | Item Package Quantity | 1 | | Item Package Weight | 0.23 Kilograms | | Item Volume | 8 Fluid Ounces | | Item Weight | 0.01 Ounces | | Liquid Contents Description | true | | Manufacturer | LD Carlson | | Model Number | 0P-ER3T-AER6 | | Net Content Volume | 8 Fluid Ounces | | Number of Items | 8 | | Number of Pieces | 1 | | Package Information | Bag | | Package Type | Custom | | Package Type Name | Bag | | Part Number | 6150a | | Special Ingredients | Bentonite | | Specialty | Natural | | Specific Uses For Product | wine making | | UPC | 888690161504 | | Unit Count | 1.00 Count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** LD Carlson - **Flavor:** Bentonite - **Item Form:** Powder - **Number of Items:** 8 - **Package Information:** Bag ## Images ![Bentonite - 8 oz. - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81slOECN34L.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Can this be used for natural toothpaste?** A: I have seen recipes for Bentonite in a natural toothpaste, I have also read that bentonite can help remove toxins from your body. I do not have any sort of recipe, but our Bentonite is all very high quality USP grade **Q: Can this bentonite be used for making a Hydrocollator pack?** A: New to brewing no idea if this would work **Q: Is this calcium bentonite? ty** A: This product is not rated pure, so likely is a mixture of calcium and sodium ions, and is not rated for internal use. It is only recommended for use as a fining agent/additive in winemaking. **Q: Do add this when I start my primary fermentation or before and wait for it to clarify?** A: Bentonite can be used before or after. I have done both ways. When you fill you carboy you can add bentonites and then pitch yeast. as your juice bubbles, the bentonites moves around and absorbs particles to help clarify. I have also done it after fermentation has been completed and love it better than sparkaloid. but it can be done both ways. The difference is that if you do it after fermentation wait at least two weeks before rackign and bottling. I know some packages says you can wait 7 days, but from experince I have had bottles that appeared clear and later developed sediment in the bottle. By waiting the 14 days, I dont run into that issue. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ THIS STUFF IS AWESOME *by A***N on September 4, 2020* So I am a mead maker and this product has been what REVOLUTIONED my mead making.

Arrived sealed and clean ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works *by A***A on June 15, 2024* Put 1/2 tablespoon in one gallon of mead after transferring to a second one gallon bottle. A few days later a large amount of sediment on the bottom of the bottle and clear mead. Then I took a previous batch of mead I made that was pretty cloudy and had been bottled. I pour the bottles back into a one gallon bottle and added again 1/2 tablespoon of bennonite. Two days later the mead was clear. This stuff really works. ## Frequently Bought Together - Bentonite - 8 oz. - Campden Tablets (sodium metabisulfite) - 2 Oz(100 Tablets) - North Mountain Supply Food Grade Potassium Sorbate Stabilizer - 2 Ounce Jar --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.eg/products/14051495-bentonite-8-oz](https://www.desertcart.com.eg/products/14051495-bentonite-8-oz) --- *Product available on Desertcart Egypt* *Store origin: EG* *Last updated: 2026-05-22*
