Beer won't clear

[kev]

Had a Summer Lightning AG batch sat for a week in the cool garage and have added a pack of beer brite.

Damn thing won't drop clear. Does it need more time?

it looks like it does. We made a belgian a while back put it in a corny and left it 2 weeks. Pulled a pint of it and it looked like milk so just left it 2 months. It was excellent. If you dissolve 15g gelatine in cooled boiled water then add to the fv 24 hours before bottling or kegging it will help clear it :thumb:

 

[kev]

Did you store it for that time in a keg under pressure?

Don't want to tie up a precious cornie (only got 4!) for that length of time!

[Mark1964]

yes we store under pressure to force carbonate

Put gelatine in and nothing has happened.

Might just keg it and drink it. Bugger it if it's cloudy - just won't give it to my mates.

You must have been drawing out the gunk from the bottom of the cornie.

Don't you love it when a plan comes together. :clap:

If sunny spot doe's it taste smell odd?

Does leaving beer in the sun make your been taste like Venison?

 

[kev]

Was fermented in the dark and moved to where it is prior to bottling.

Alter the dip pipe in your keg like mine, make one of these out of 3/8 to make the dip tube pick up above the sediment. :thumb:
