How long does it generally take for your beers to drop clear? I’ve made beers with excellent clarity in the past. I usually ferment, cold crash, then fine with gelatin. After I keg and carbonate, the beer becomes hazy again and takes a couple weeks to clarify.
I just made a Kölsch, and followed my normal protocol of fermentation, cold crash, then fining. I let the beer set for 3-4 days before kegging. This time, after kegging, I fined again with gelatin to see if I could get the beer to clear faster. After a couple days in the keg, it’s still a bit hazy. I’m not sure there’s anything else I can do, short of filtration, to get the beer to clear faster. What’s your process, and how long does it take for your beer to clear?
