I've got a pretty big ipa, og 1.086. In primary I had a lot of trub fall out so I racked to secondary before it started to clear. Now at 3 weeks (26 days) in secondary with a steady fg 1.018 at 68deg.
But I've got a solid two inch cake in my carboy. The beer is fairly clear but I keep seeing bubbles come up from the cake, trailing yeast up into solution, keeping it slightly cloudier than I'd like. Also, I dry hopped twice and the second I tossed whole hops without a bag so they're floating in solution for about a week.
I'll be kegging this one so I'd rather not transfer yeast or hops particles and I don't have filtration abilities. So I was considering racking to tertiary and cold crashing to get the hops and a majority of the yeast out.
Should I do that or just cold crash the current vessel?
