Just completed the Brewers best IPA and followed the instructions while brewing. Since I didn't have a carboy I left the beer in the fermenting bucket for 1 week and then bottled. The result turned out nicely after 3 weeks of bottle conditioning. The beer has a nice bitter taste as expected. However the beer is very cloudy and I'm wondering if a secondary would have cleared the beer up. My basement where I ferment the beer is on the warm side so the fermentation process usually only takes 4 to 5 days to complete. I'm wondering if that has anything to do with the cloudiness of the final product?
