Looking good, what recipe did you use?
I usually rack off to another to prime etc.... better than stirring the primary up again when mixing in your priming solution ðŸËâ¬

Cheers Roddy.
Should I fine to get rid of the little floaters? And is it better to fine in the secondary demijohn a little while before priming and bottling?

I usually just rack to another FV, prime (I use polish flavoured syrup, which is so loaded with sugar, it does all the priming) Lowicz it's called, you can usually get it readily in supermarkets, but probably just the cherry or raspberry varieties.. I'll then bottle it immediately after racking/priming.
I don't use finings in TC at all, it will clear to crystal in the bottle when it's carbing up, I usually get a tiny bit of sediment so that I need to store the bottles upright, and leave about 5mm in the bottle when pouring into the glass.
My stuff usually clears and carbs in about 7 days, when kept in a warm place, if you use a few plastic bottles too, you can gauge how well it's carbing by how firm the bottles are to the squeeze :)
