Well, I'm trying out this "no secondary" thing on my latest brew. So I have a carboy of Edwort's pale ale that's been in there about a week. It's good and fermented out, so this is when I would normally rack it to a secondary and add some gelatin. But I'm not going to do that this time, because people say it's unnecessary. But should I put the gelatin in the primary then?
It sure seems weird because there's still a ring of scum around the top and some foam and stuff still floating on the beer. I guess if I just let it sit here another week or two and am careful when I put it in the bottle bucket it should be fine, but it's weird. Normally after I racked to a secondary it would be in a nice clean container, but maybe the advantage there is only psychological.
