Right now I have a strong IPA (1.072 OG) that I moved to secondary three days ago. It spent a week in primary on re-pitched slurry (Wyeast 1056) and fermented strong the whole time. This is my first higher gravity beer, but my previous batches have tended to become significantly clearer after about a day in secondary. It's been three days and this beer still looks just as cloudy as when I transferred it.
After the transfer I moved it to my basement where it's ~62-65 F, so I just want to make sure it's not due to the low temp. Or should I expect the higher gravity beer to just take longer to clear? I plan on leaving it in secondary for another month or so anyway.
