Wondering if fluid level in carboys is important. I put marbles inside to raise the fluid level. And to get rid of any extra air space. This was when I racked to a secondary. Looking for feedback on what others do if there about 2 liters. Short in a carboy. Thanks mike.

I have a vino buono filter for wine. Thinking of using that.

Would a running it through a filter take a haze out of the Beer? Thinking of that before I bottle. Will it take out all the yeast donut won't carb up?

Hi guys, looking for advice on diacetyl rest. I've had my lager in primary for 10 days. At a temp of 60-62. You think it's been through a diacetyl rest at that temp? Should I increase the temp to 68 for 48hrs before chilling to 38F., Thanks mike.
