I just brewed a batch of BM's Cream of 3 Crops and the wort was mighty cloudy I suspect the cloudiness was due to a combination of my paint strainer bag with mesh that is too large (I need to get a bag from that vendor on this site) and my doubled crushed grains and flaked corn... it looked like there was a lot of flour in these grains that probably got through the mesh into my wort.
Anyhow, I was thinking of using gelatin to get this crisp light summer beer super clear, it just seems to suit the style. Problem is, I don't have a way to cold crash my beer and I'm not using a secondary fermentor.
My question is, can I just follow standard protocol for using gelatin (1 tbsp in 1 cup of water, heat and add to beer, right?) and just leave it in my beer at fermentation temps (mid 60's) for the last week or so of primary before bottling and expect good results?
