The last two extract beers I've made (APA and ESB) I did a 3 gal boil with half the extract and added the rest at the end of the boil. Once it's mixed (liquid extract by the way) I chill using an immersion chiller. I also used whirlfloc at 10 minutes in both batches. The apa used us-05 and the esb 04. Both were about 3 weeks in primary before going in the keg and on tap both are very hazy. The ESB never did clear before the keg kicked and the APA is just as bad. I did add gelatin to the beer today so we'll see if that helps.
I didn't have this haze problem when I added all the extract in the beginning of the boil, but the beer tastes better with the late addition. Does anyone else have hazy beer with late addition brews? Trying to get my beer to look as good as it tastes!
