    Why is my beer so cloudy?

    So I made a rasberry wheat beer, and used both Whirlfloc and gelatin to try and clear it up. It's coming out of the keg super cloudy still. I used 3lbs of fresh raspberries(I pureed) and added it to the secondary. Is there a reason it's so cloudy? Or did I mess something up? Still on the...

    Adding Fruit to a Wheat

    Do I add it to primary? Secondary? Right before bottling? It's been fermenting for a week, still fairly vigorously.

    Adding Fruit to a Wheat

    So I want to add some Rasberries and lime to a wheat beer that is fermenting. I have frozen raspberries (from the store) and like juice. Do I need to soak these in vodka for a period of time to sanitize? And how much is a good amount for 5 gallons?

    Bitter Stout

    So I just racked my stout into the secondary to add cacao nibs, and when I tasted it, it seemed very bitter. I dont think it was sour, but bitter like a pale ale almost. Is this just a product of fermentation not being quite done? Or what could cause it? It's the Simply Beer Stout kit, if...

    Bottle from Keg. Drink within a day.

    So I want to take some of my freshly kegged beer to a friends house. If I am going to drink it within a day, is it necessary to purge the bottles? Or can I just fill and cap the bottles to take?

    Quicker than expected fermentation?

    So I'm doing Northern Brewer Swig of Sunbeams, and after the 2-week primary fermentation, my airlock has almost completely stopped bubbling. The recipe calls for a 1 to 2-week secondary with a 5-7 day dry hop. Should I just just dry hop 7 days and call it good? Any suggestions help!

    Simply Beer Kits

    Thank you, maybe next time. For this time, I'm going to add cacao nibs to the stout and split it at bottling to add coffee to half. Any idea how much?
