Update #2

Yesterday I transferred the brew into another plastic bin and added a small amount of finings to try and get as much trub out as possible (it is an experiment afterall). I've not done a secondary before as I don't have a carboy, but this was like a mini secondary as there was a good quarter inch of trub left behind when I racked to my bottling bucket about an hour ago.

This was another first as I've never bottled before, I have a King Keg instead.

All went well, the orange and cinamon flavors have mellowed out leaving it tasting like a strong (flat) lager that isn't too sweet. The taste of both are still there in the background adding a nice touch.

I'll update again in about three weeks if I can wait that long before having one.

Anyway, must crack on, my bin is sanitizing waiting for a Coopers Austrailian Draught.

Cheesefood, I didn't add any more cinamon as it tasted just right, so you were probably correct.

Had my first bottle yesterday, it tastes great, the cinamon is non-existant again though which is a shame, its a very strong lager which gets balanced by the orange. Good head and a nice fizz, not too much and not too little.

I'm very pleased with it and am off to have another bottle

I used a level tablespoon of cinnamon I think (it was a while ago now)

It was most definatley one of the best beers I've ever tasted, I'm getting back in to brweing again at the moment so a couple of practise runs and I'll do it again.

Yeah, I took a break from my hobby as I got disheartened with only 1 out of 3 brews apparently working.
