I agree woozee. I've done about 20 batches so far and only had one cloudy beer. I just didn't want to reply to such an odd statement lol.
"You're best bet would be to forget about it and drink hazy beer"
A bit of an over statement. Cold crashing makes *clearer* beer (usually) but that's a far cry from saying a beer without cold crash is doomed to be hazy.

Fair enough. You are forgiven.It's an over statement only because I assumed haze was the issue here.
Well, that was the OP's question. S/he had heard of cold crashing and didn't know what it was or what it was for or if s/he should do it.Otherwise why cold crash? To reduce the sediment in bottles? That would seem like a waste of ice and time for just a little less sediment.
Because this is a beginner's beer forum. The OP heard of cold crashing. Is it something he should be doing? Is it something everybody else but him is doing? Is everyone on the planet having fantastic beer while the OP is having poor beer that he in his ignorance thinks is okay but really isn't and it's all because everyone else on the planet does the absolutely essential step of cold crashing and by not doing this essential step the OP is making swill and he's just to dumb to know it? Gee, it helps clear beer... well, maybe the OP always thought his beers were clear enough but they could always stand to be clearer. Maybe he should try it. Does he have room for it? Can he make room for it? Well, ****... if he can't do it are his beers doomed to be sub par?Wait, so you have clear beer already...so why cold crash
