I add pectolase to pulp prior to pressing, this maximises juice yield and must be a factor in my early pressings being crystal golden clear.
Forgot to add it to my last batch and am wondering if adding it now, two weeks after fermentation began will have any benefit at all?
Am not obsessed with having a clear cider but t does look nicer in the bottle.
Pectolase in Cider - Worth adding it late?
Re: Pectolase in Cider - Worth adding it late?
i don't bother with it at all. I got great extraction from my pommace and my cider is as clear as clear can be. I didn't realise apples had pectin in them.

Adding it now will still work, not as effective as adding at the start but will still break down the pectin haze.
Apples are surprizingly quite high in pectin.
