OK so hopefully I've attached a view of my efforts for ginger wine.
You should be able to see that it's cleared, well sort of.
There's still some of the original "flakes" of ginger floating on top, plus there's the incredible layer of sludge - that container is about 12 litres in size so the sludge layer is about 6 or so inches thick.
Obviously it's debris from the huge amount of ginger I used in my effort to get something that would be as "hot" tasting as "Stones" ginger wine.
I'm presuming that the sludge is part ginger and part yeast, so what would be the best method of filtering (?) it away.
I'm guessing that a filter would be no good as it would just clog up all the time, while I also suspect that some sort of muslin might be too coarse and would allow some of the sediment through.
Any suggestions would be gratefully appreciated.
