I recently switched from whirlfloc tablets to locally-sourced carrageenan. I ended up using too much in my first batch, and had yeast rafts like I'd never seen before. Now the beer is cold-crashing, and although the last few rafts have sunk, they've simply drifted to the bottom without settling out. There's very little hop matter or cold break material in there. It's almost all Lallemand Voss yeast.
I've tried swishing the fermenter around to break up the big blobs, and it's worked to some degree, but it's still really fluffy at the bottom. Is there anything else I can do besides chill and shake? Would gelatin or Biofine Clear help at all (I have both on hand)? Or do I just need to transfer to the keg carefully and chalk it up as a lesson learned?
