Fermenting in Keg Filtering

[Beer4All]

Just switched 2 brews ago from fermenting in a fermonster to fermenting in kegs. The brews I have done have toasted great but I always seem to have small little pieces floating in the beer. Just doesn’t seem to clear like all previous brews in the fermonster.
I cold crash to 40F for 3 days before transferring and fine with gelatin on day 2.
Haven’t changed process between both fermenting styles. Anyone else had issues like this?

the fermenting keg I am using has a trimmed dip tube about 5/8”. I have fermented under pressure to about 5 psi then sounded toward the end.

You might try a floating, filtered dip tube in that fermenting keg. This is what I use in my Fermzilla and even without cold crashing, a lot of junk is left behind so I haven’t had floaters in the serving keg.

Maybe an inline filter in your transfer line would help? I use one like this when transferring from fermenter to keg (not fermenting in a keg...yet) I have the red filter which is more coarse, but this blue one is good (maybe better). 3/8" Hose Barb in-Line Strainer with 50 mesh Stainless Steel Filter Screen: Replacement Furnace Filters: Amazon.com: Industrial & Scientific

Floating dip tube with a filter or a filter around your dip tube are other solutions.

I used a floating dip tube on my last IPA with a filter. Worked awesome for dry hopping. For most beers I bent my regular dip tube so I have about 1/4-1/2 gallon of deadspace so as not to pick up any of the yeast/trub. Works nicely.
