Hello all
My Festival Endeavour has finally reached the recommended fg of 1009,it's been dry hopped with the 75g of galena supplied but I used my trusty filter sock and some spoons instead of chucking them all in. It's fairly clear in the test tube and tastes good,so depending on stability of fg,it'll be bottled on Wednesday as I'm nights tonight and tomorrow. ..
Now, I am considering a couple of options...I usually just remove the hop sock on bottling day just prior to siphoning into my bottling bucket ..should I remove it a day or two before to allow further settling?
The other thing...finings...are they all worthwhile addition? Can they remove excess yeast to the point of hampering carbonation?
Cheers
Clint
