I've been doing some research about filtering homebrew once it has finished fermenting. From what I've read it seems that if you filter you get beer that conditions faster, clearer, and can drink it quicker. What's everyones thoughts on filtering?
I do not filter because I don't see the point of removing naturally occurring substances that contribute to what makes a beer a beer just so it can be clear. Most filtered beers I have had lack the depth you get with unfiltered. If having it ready is the point then just make batches more often up front to get a supply going so you can wait for them to age properly.
I filtered for a while...Now I use gelatin. I've spoken to several homebrewers who used to filter.
