Hi marbaker mine normally takes about 5-6 days from start to finish, it will clear better if its in a cool place. I use turbo klar

If you have a T500 (and your other posts suggest you do) then it doesn\'t have to be 100% clear.
I\'ve run the alcotec when it\'s been cloudy and it has worked fine. Just use the rings and conditioner in the boiler.
In fact Alcotec say the same thing.
