TL makes some interesting points -
But you need to be a little careful about terminology.
Thanks for the deets Thirsty. I'm just a little concerned ive been overly aggressive with my stirring in between batches and possibly pulling across starch to the boiler etc. My eff is usually in the mid-high 70's.
A little :icon_offtopic:
As you are also into filtering, do you Polyclar often? All of the beers ive filtered so far have had some chill haze which is a little unfortunate. I was rambling recently that i hadn't noticed chill haze often in my non filtered beers but was thinking the tannins and proteins where floccing out over time so when the beer was young and unfiltered, the chill haze was there but was masked due to yeast.
I can't remember correctly but can oxidation from filtering cause haze? I'm very confident this shouldn't be the case as i purge the filter housing/lines with CO2 before i begin, but i just want to rule out this as a possibility. I can always push more CO2 through the housing on my next attempt to be sure.
Cheers!
