Is pectin the same as gelatin?

That’s awesome. I’ve got it pretty clear with just cold crashing, but wanted to see how much difference there is with gelatin. Thanks a lot.

I haven’t used gelatin yet to improve beer clarity but I’d like to and was wondering how to properly use it? I’ve heard some different ways so wanted to get a majority opinion.

So I let it sit at room temp overnight, let all the pressure out and started over at 10 psi. Success.

Into anything. Ha.

Gotcha. I’ll c what happens.

Ok. I’ll try it [emoji53]

Yea I even let all the pressure out, removed the lid and looked inside. It looks like all beer to me. No foam was even visible. [emoji53]

Won’t the foam dissipate over time.

Will the foam issue go away once I correct the issue and let the beer sit for a while?

Thank you.

Ok great. I also bumped my temp to about 38-40 F.

Ok. Everything I’ve seen says the line should be about 5’ I thought?

Yea my last ones were fine. The temp is about 30 deg F. I force carb’d at about 25 psi for a couple days and then had it at about 8 psi for 5 days and still foamy.

No it’s off a draught tap and it’s a 3/16” x 5’ line.

So I initially force carb’d an Irish Red about 5 days ago and the pressure is now at 8psi but it’s super foamy and the beer isn’t that carbonated at all for all the foam. Any ideas why.

I just did that exact brew, and didn’t rack to a secondary. 2 wks in the primary and racked it. Sometimes those instructions are a guideline but if u ever have questions call Northern Brewer. They are awesome.

That’s interesting for sure. I bumped my temp from 64 up to 68 so hopefully it’ll help. Any more info is greatly appreciated. Also I recently used Imperial Yeast and it’s the best by far that I’ve used. No more White Labs for sure.

So what does that mean exactly

Ok. The kit was from N Brewer and recommended OG of 50, my actual OG was 44 and as of now it’s at 38.
