Ok this is only my second cider that I have made. The first one I made I racked into a secondary fermenter after primary fermentation was over. This time I used Safale S04 yeast and it's been a month and it's incredibly clear already. I thought I'd cold crash it for a few days and then rack to a keg. Is this a bad idea or should I go ahead and put it in a secondary for another few weeks and then keg it. I didn't take a gravity reading yet so I know I probably should do that first and see what it is and then go from there, so am I answering my own question or do others bypass the secondary like I want to do? I always take gravity readings when I make beer, but for cider this is already a small batch (3 gallons) to go in a 2.5 gallon keg and I didn't want to waste any taking a gravity reading. Also for a secondary the size of this small batch I don't have another vessel small enough and there will be a lot of head space if I secondary this batch.
