Recipe calls for the following:
7lbs of pale malt extract
1/4 lb roasted barley
1 lb 20L crystal malt
1/2 lb munich malt
1oz Northern Brewer (60 mins) boiling
1oz Norther Brewer (30 mins) boiling
1oz Fuggle (2 mins) aromatic
1 tspoon Irish Moss (15 mins)
1 tspoon Gelatin
3/4 cup bottling sugar
The recipe calls for a secondary fermenter, which I'm assuming is once the yeast is done "throwing up", siphoning the wort out into another carboy adding the gelatin and letting it settle. Please clarify
Additionally, after 3-5 days of the gelatin in the secondary, it says to rack again into a third fermenter. Is this necessary? Won't some of the yeast be lost throughout these multiple racking processes which would cause low alcohol content?
