    To cold crash or not to cols crash, that is the question!

    Doing my first beer (ipa) in a primary for 3 weeks and I want to get clear beer. I heard that cold crashing for a couple days helps the dead yeast settle to the bottom and really helps clear the beer. What is your thought of cold crashing? Is it worth the effort or should I just forget about it?

    Bottled beer seems too carbonated

    This is my first batch of homebrew and I tasted it right after the secondary fermentation to make sure it tasted as good as it smelt and it seemed quite good! Now I have it bottled and I have 10 days in bottling (so about 4 days left) and I cracked one open for curiousity and it had a lot of...
