  • In this video, Garrett uses unflavored gelatin in order to clear a beer. Watch until the end to see how clear the beer looks after 7, 9 and 11 days. Do you use gelatin in your homebrewing?

    This technique is brilliant. Dare i say that i added a small step to improve it lol...Basically followed exactly what you did but also bled the gas disconnects of air by squeezing the pet bottle a big while relieving pressure and letting the gelatin bleed through. I refilled the pet bottle to the brim and might have had one tiny bubble if that of air if that. Thanks for the helpful video.

      Thank you, kind sir. I should have mentioned that pressurizing the PET bottle with CO2 is another good idea (and something I normally do). As you had mentioned, purging any air bubbles is a big brain move. I appreciate your comment. Cheers, G

    Hi. I noticed that you have a black beverage coupling on the carb cap. Aren't the carb caps for gas coupling (white or grey) only? I figured it would be two grey or white connectors to inject into the gas post? Thanks in advance for clarrifying

      I can’t vouch for the plastic ones but the SS ones are both liquid and gas compatible. Kind of counter intuitive if you’ve ever experienced the agony of f forcing a gas disconnect on a liquid keg post (or vice versa).

    Ive been looking for a video that shows the first pint poured after gelatin fining, many describe a thick gross beer, but I have never experienced this in the many many brews i have done which makes me feel like I did something wrong. Can you make a edit or a video showing if the first pint is gross and how to tell. Thank you. Subd

      Hey there, I don't have any footage of that for a pretty good reason .... I use floating tubes.
      Back in the day, I'd shorten the stainless diptube by an inch to avoid a lot of the nasty stuff. I'd recommend going to a floating diptube. They aren't terribly expensive and a worthwhile investment. Since you'll save a few beers from each keg, it pays itself off fairly quickly. Cheers!

      @@theferalpaladin4350 - I PBW (or equivalent) the silicon hosing with the float itself when I clean my kegs. Then I sanitize it with starsan when I sanitize my kegs. 90% of my brews have me running hot wort into my kegs to cool so the float gets two methods of sanitization (chemical + heat).

    After how many days should I add the gelatin to the keg?

      @IBrew-UBrew  Před rokem

      Anytime after fermentation is done and the beer tastes finished. You will notice the effects within mere hours. It's pretty cool!
