Hello Fellow (im a poet) Enthusiasts, Just have a question regarding adding gelitin to clear beer. It has likely been covered so im sorry if this is the case.
I have my first brew in the fermenter now, when can i add gelitin to it to help clear it? Is it too late now? Im not going to secondary, primary to bottles.
Any help appreciated.
 
Check this out... What ive watched several times before my first gelatin experience.



U COULD add it to primary but ur gonna have an awful lot on the bottom that will get kicked up when u move it. I cold crashed mine for two days, racked to secondary, added gelatin and let that work for three days and I still had a bunch of sediment kick up on the bottom of that when I pulled it out to rack into my corny. I just don't wanna see u waste the time/effort and have it still come out cloudy so I recommend a secondary.

Stay away from gelatin and try biofine clear. It's vegan and it actually works.
