Hey All,
I recently brewed this Aprihop clone (found some where on internet). It is delicious, but only problem is that there is a ton of residue. I've left over an inch in the bottle and there is still floating things. Any idea why? I used a secondary and all. Could it be due to the apricot extract addition at bottling? Thoughts?
Thanks!
