Hi Guys
After 2 weeks PF with SO5 my beer was stll a bit soupy, but the yeast did drop. But as I say it was a bit soupy.
I have had a kilner jar of oak chips soaked in half & half whisky & bourbon which has been in the cupboard for over 3 months now. What was whisky coloured is now black & tarry.
I originally made up this jar for a brew that has been and gone, I bottled out of it. But now I am determined, and I added them to a betterbottle secondary with the beer today (with a handfull of cascade).
Interestingly, this was only a few hours ago, but they have acted like finings, and already there is a thick layer of yeast in the betterbottle. I was careful moving the primary, and racked carefully, so I only took over what was in suspension.
As the the idea was to let it sit on the chips for a couple of weeks, I am now worried about the amount of yeast, do I need to rack off again?
