How long should it take my beer to clear in a keg in the fridge? It's a lager that I used pellets for dry hopping. Used an auto siphon, but still got some sediment in the keg. It's been a little over a day and still not very clear. Thanks.
 
My experience is one to two weeks. I've only kegged 5 batches but that seems to be my average.
 
^This.^ It'll take a couple weeks to really clear up. That being said, I usually can't wait more than a week and the first part of the keg is usually not optimally clear. Tastes good though!
 
Don't be surprised if it never does. If it's an IPA, it probably will get clearer, but not clear, in my experience. Otherwise I figure about three weeks.
