20L/four mini-kegs of American IPA doing their second ferment on a heating tray. Made from an upmarket kit with real hops. Will need a week or two before going into cool storage

Yep anyone who puts a slice of lemon in a beer is seriously whacked in my opinion.
Fine in corona on a stinking hot day. Never any other time

This is supposed to be a beer thread
I justified my statement. Just.

Plum Porter - St Peters Brewery kit. Much lighter than Guinness or a Stout and seriously drinkable - can catch up on you

How long did you age that for ?
Looks magnificent by the way.

6 weeks in the 5L keg. Had its twin at 4 weeks and was equally good.
Head is good considering I don't really go for fizzy beer.

Regrettably I got a bit generous with some of my stouts ( here, check this out ! Brewed it myself ) and ran out. Had the last of them in mid December and it was outstanding. I really must brew a bunch this Summer and age them in time for the colder months !

Folks, how long do you leave your beer to condition/clear?
I have some IPA which is taking an age - 4 weeks so far - and I'm getting impatient.

Depends really.
Hope you’ve found this advice helpful

@Victor-Meldrew what sort of beer is it?
I either do nothing, or use a floating dip tube. Gelatine fining is really good after you have cold crashed. It strips out chill haze as well as floating junk.
Honestly though, I don't worry too much. Beers in the keg drop clear, so it's usually only hop burn from dry hopping I get concerned about.
In terms of timing, cold crash, gelatine and a floating intake get results in a couple of days... But the longer the better. If it's not dropping clear, it may be something in the recipe or the process
