Rack from secondary before kegging??

Postby Swifty » Wednesday Jul 25, 2007 7:39 am

What do you guys do. I've only kegged one beer so far and it's alot more cloudy than bottled. So should I rack from secondary before kegging or keg straight from secondary. I assume the fact that the beer is taken from the bottom that that is why my beer is a bit cloudy. I'm not too worried as I'm the only one that drinks it and it taste's fine but curious to find out if I could make it even clearer.

It's been in the fridge for two weeks now. Being the first keg I carbonated and started drinking within a couple of days. I haven't had a beer from it in a few days and will see tonight if it has cleared some more.

its funny, i find my ber will clear up after about 10 day's in the keg, but they will be cloudy right up until a point where it will just go super clear, like the east just gets the shits or something and drops out.
