Hi all. I just put my first batch of homebrew up. It was a kit for a pale ale. Came with liquid malt extract, glucose and yeast. I followed the instructions on the tin and all seemed to go well. Fermentation stopped after 4 days. The instructions then said to add something called finnings that is supposed to let all the unwanted stuff in the beer sink to the bottom, which I did. It said to leave it for 2 more days and the bottle. So that is only 6 days till botteling, does that sound right? Also, I have read comments that says not to add the sugar that you get in the kits to your beer, why?? And what is does the term 'raking' reffer to? Thanks
