Forgot to add irish moss

[Tiredboy]

I'm hoping it won't matter but I've just realised that I forgot to add Irish moss to my dogfish head 60 minute clone that I brewed last saturday. Should I do anything or leave it and hope for the best. I plan on leaving it in primary for 3 weeks, then dry hoping (in primary) for a week before transferring to a keg and force carbing.

Cold crash it and fine it with gelatin to help with clarity.

I've made that clone, or at least a version of it. I loved it. I wish it was on tap now!

Look, of all the things you could sweat messing up, lack of an Irish moss addition the last 15 minutes of your boil should not even be on the radar. IMHO

I say carry on! Your beer will be fine. Cold crash it and siphon carefully. You'll never recognize the difference.

Cheers!

I couldn't tell any difference in the clarity of my final product with or without irish moss.
