Sediment

[Pillsburyjoboy]

I just rushed a batch to have done for an upcoming party. I typically use a secondary step fermentation, but for this batch I kegged it straight from the primary. In doing so I am finding a lot of sediment in the first few pours. If I allow this to cold crash in the kegerator for a few days should I be able to pour off most of the sediment? I am a bit frustrated because the beer tastes good but I'm finding a lot of sediment.

Thanks for any tips/advice.

As long as you didn't rack enough larger particles that could plug up the post/diptube/QD, the longer and colder you can hold that beer the quicker you'll draw off the trub...

Cheers!

I also have the same issue. I had been cold crashing my primary prior to kegging, and getting clean, clear beer right from first pour.

This last one, which was pretty heavily hopped...I didn't crash it. I've only sampled it, as it's not close to carbed, but at 48 hours In fridge it was pouring a lot of cloudy and gunky looking beer. I'm hoping a week will help. I turned down the temp to help move it along.
