What's up everyone!
I'm brewing my first batch and I have a few questions.
1. I read that the film on top was bad for you beer and would add a bitter flavor and I wanted to dry hop, so I racked it to a secondary. The initial fermentation seemed to be finished because the head was dropping. Will this have any effect on the beer?
2. How long should I dry hop?
3. should I use gelatin to clean it up? I read that this could possibly take away some hop flavor. I'm looking for a west coast style IPA
Thanks
