How long has it been fermenting? Have you taken any gravity readings? gratus fermentatio said: I'd leave it alone till it clears. Regards, GF. Click to expand... Agreed. No point in racking if it's not clear and/or there is still activity. No need to rush things along, it will only get better with age.
