Thanks for the advice, i have decided to just see how it comes out without finings for now. As i was planing on leaving it in the primary for two weeks. I think it will give me a good bench mark to work from. Will see how it works out as I will be bottling this weekend unless something comes up.
I think my fridge only goes as low as " degrees unfortunately. Need to get a temp controlled chest freezer it sounds like.
I will go with the fastest decrease then and see what happens. My plan was to dry hop 3 days before the cold crash so I will see how clear it looks after three.

The single best thing i have found for limiting sediment in bottles is to not be greedy when racking and to disturb the trub as little as possible, even move the beer to where you will be racking it a day before to allow it to settle (which helps even if you have used finings).
^^^ I think that...
I was planning on crashing it in a temperature controlled fridge i already owned. I was thinking of going down in temp about 5 degrees Celsius a day till i hit about 2-3 degrees unless it better to go straight down to 2-3 degrees in the 1st day. I was planing on cold crashing for 5-7 days.
i think i will try this method out. I didn't like the idea of moving to a secondary something i might try after I have more experience with the whole process. Cheers for the reply.
Hi everyone,
I am new to brewing and the forum. I have been reading posts for awhile so thought I would join and come say hi as i have officially started my first homebrew and have Golden Ale on the go at the moment but wanted some advice on clearing the beer.
I wanted to ask a question...
