Dont bother with finings, just rack and leave it for a couple of weeks, then whack it in your keg and drink ( after its carbed of course) :lol: :wink:

ok cheers liegh, to late with the finnings though :( i read a topic on finnings on this site some are all for it others are not, any way i just wanted this one to be clear as possable. So i've racked into one keg i will give it a week in the fridge then rack into my other keg, this will be the tricky part, will getting a hose with two black disconects on each end, putting one end on the full keg and one end on the empty keg then purging with the valve on the keg work????????????

It's common practice Mr Magoo - I have a keg transfer hose as you describe, that I regularly use. You can use a keg as a beer brightening tank and the beauty is that you're moving beer with CO2 and not exposing it to the air.
If you have chilled the beer and it's still hazy, give Ross a hoy and order some Polyclar to clear the beer and remove the chill haze.

Cheers,
