I think a lot of people have had clearing issues with Wherry. I bottled mine and some where clear and some had a haze. Didn't stop me enjoying the beer though :

It comes to us all. I think it's age (or beer) related :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

Mine's cloudy after three weeks of cold conditioning, I'm wondering if it's a chill haze as it's been pretty cold. Taste's ok though! Hopefully it'll be clear for Christmas!

Took over 4 weeks for mine to clear.
Tastes good though, worth the wait.

Has anyone had issues with this taking bloody ages to ferment? My FV is still kicking out CO2 and it is DAY 12 today!

I just left mine for two weeks just to be on the safe side, even though most of the visble activity had finished after only a couple of days. I put some gelatin in the keg along with the prining sugar and it's looking okay (and tastes great) after three weeks.

That looks nice! I have a heating belt on mine and it is still going - at least I think. I get a new hydrometer today so I can test. Basically, I have a sealed lid on my FV and I have been squashing the CO2 out to make it flat again so that I can visibly see the CO2 build up. It is still 'inflating' each night so yeast is still working away. The last kit fermented out after 7 days.
