Before you use it
Half a tablet clears a 5 gal batch; a whole one is for 10 gal, and doubling it only compacts the trub less. Add it too early and the boil shears the flocs apart, undoing the work.
Description
A compressed blend of purified carrageenan and polyvinylpolypyrrolidone that does the Irish moss job faster and more consistently. No rehydration, no weighing — just drop a tablet in near the end of the boil.
